BH have you tried one of them awesome looking sticks yet? any changes?
Not yet, they are still dryboxing but I imagine one will go up in flames either tonight or tomorrow.

Wrapped er a bunch that were sitting in the mold a few days. The four on the right were finished with LO Ecuadorian Habano which is just gorgeous stuff. Smells incredible too so anxious to try. Now I have the same blend with 3 different wrappers to figure what each wrapper brings to the table.

I like the initial P, but what's with the Saturn ring O?
I honestly don't know. This is what happens when you pilfer images form the interwebs.

I just fired up one of these since the wife won't be home for dinner for a while. May be a little young yet and while not bad I prefer the broadleaf wrapper over the Sumatra with this blend at the moment. There seems to be a little more spice which I like but there is a grassiness I'm not a big fan of. Will revisit in a few weeks or so.

Tried the same blend with the Ecuadorian Habano wrapper last night and am officially in love with that wrapper. The blend only has the toasted marshmallow flavors with the PA broadleaf wrapper, but has a little more spice and a great creamy mouthfeel with the Habano. image.jpg

Hate to be a pain in the tail but can someone tell me or point me to the thread with instructions on how to post pics from an iPhone? Thanks #12

First 3 in the books. Going to let them dry out as I had to dampen the wrapper quite a bit, even after misting the bag and letting them sit overnight.
I put a wrapper on them just to get the full experience. Next time I need to get my binder tighter and the wrapper also.

What sort of ratio does that kit provide for the filler leaves? Like 2-1-1 or something?

Great looking sticks hawk! Those should make you proud and you will be surprised how fast they disappear.
