I don't get time to roll a lot of cigars, but when I do I use strips of newspaper to tighten around the rolled binder as a mold, let it sit for an hour, then apply the wrapper. This was the last of my Nicaraguan shade wrapper from WLT; with a Sumatra binder; Dominican O'lor and a leaf of Little Yellow that I grew a few years ago as filler.

Machu Pichu Havana puro. Light to medium body with a sweetness that I couldn't quite identify, somewhere between table sugar and vanilla, and oh so peppery. This is a variety that would add some zip to a tamer blend, but wouldn't distract in the least.
Smoked pretty hot throughout but I'll mark that to construction, age, or the balmy weather.
