Pics of your Sticks II

[ArizonaDave]

Web,

It looks to me like he may be using the book bunching method. I use it all the time and have never had a drawing problem after rolling several hundred cigars.

Yes, that's book method for sure. Nothing wrong with that. I still do that on occasion. It's a great method for those starting out or rolling a bunch of cigars to fill up the humidor. The Entubado method allows for more flavor though.

Lew, I'm surprised you still have Mata Fina, I ran out like 4 months ago, so next time I'm ordering enough to last me until next time it comes in again. I grew some this year (Brazil Bahia) and it's coming along quite nicely, same taste and aroma, just needs more aging!!!

 

[waikikigun]

Those look super killer, Lew. Nice job.

 

[kenneumann]

That's some good looking sticks you got there Lew!

I've been seeing a lot of that Mata Fina lately. Where can I get some to try it out? Or does anybody have a few leaves I could buy from them to try it out?

 

[waikikigun]

Rolled this twenty-four days ago. Thank god I rolled five of'em. It tastes like pouring heaven into your head.

What's the blend?

 

[waikikigun]

Little this, little that. Dominican binder, Ecuador wrapper. Based on the Warped La Colmena, tastes very similar. But it didn't cost me $13.50 a stick.

The Brazilian Mata Fina should be back in stock soon at WLT. I believe Don mentioned that it was coming via ship container, so I'd give it 2 or 3 weeks or so? Or you could just call WLT? Either that, or pick up a sample from Webmost...

Thanks Dave, I'll have to keep a look out.

This is the first time I've rolled 10 of the same blend.

Nice ChinaVoodoo. Like the colour of your wrapper.

That's the whole leaf tobacco bezuki wrapper. It's delicious.

 

[LewZephyr]

Nice sticks ChinaV.
I like the Bezuki as well. Not as much as the Habana 2000, but it adds a nice spin / change to a blend.

I got some of that in as well. I love it!

Good looking collection, ChinaVoodoo. Are those government nutrition labels on each cigar?

My RDI of vitamin B3.
Seriously,
It says filler =2 Dominican Seco, 2 Dominican Ligero, binder =1 Ecuador CT Shade, but that's wrong, it should be 1/2, and wrapper =1/2 Bezuki
