Pics of your sticks!!

And how was the smoking experience of that creation

Whoooo ! It seems huge !
Was it good ?

Honduran Habano seed tobacco is the foundation of Hoyo de Monterrey, Punch, Flor de A. Allones, JR Ultimate, Belinda, El Rey del Mundo (non-Nicaraguan) and Sancho Panza cigars. The Honduran Habano leaf lacks the harshness of Nicaraguan-grown leaf.

A light wrapper on the outside adds a mellow character. Immediately after that cigar, I made one with Honduran Habano filler (likely viso), Besuki double binder, and a dark Honduran Habano wrapper. I loved them both. I am a big fan of Honduran tobaccos. They also blend well with Corojo 99 and Dominican fillers.

Currently, WLT offers a Honduras Gran Habano "blend kit" that includes the Honduran Habano, Corojo 99 and Dominican fillers, along with Honduran Habano maduro wrapper and double Sumatra binder. It looks like a winner. http://www.wholeleaftobacco.com/Honduras-Gran-Habano-CgrBlnd6.htm

This family-friendly looking cigar is entirely Honduras Habano (from WLT), politely wrapped in Ecuador Shade (also from WLT).

Beautiful cigar Bob. Couldn't help but laugh. It well...just...anyways.......

Here's my latest stick. It ain't the prettiest but it tasted nice, smoked well and had a good ol' cherry on it.

I dubbed the blend the Orinico Blanco Brillante Hoja, I still can't remember what the % blend was (how unfortunate naturally) but I'll find it eventually. White Stem Orinico, with Virginia Bright Leaf.

In order to motivate me because of my seedling dried out, I decided to roll one from my last grow baccy. This has been kilned in my car for 2 weeks.




zimmer, little dutch and havana filler, zimmer binder and wrapper

The draw is ok, a bit tight. Taste, definitely need some more rest and maybe time in kiln. However it has smooth out, I can even inhale it, with load of woody taste. The little dutch smell before rolling is a little bit spicy so I thought I could get maybe some spice from it. Will add more little dutch after this.

nic/DR/havana filler, PA binder, and FL sum wrapper. Newsprint for the pressing. The version with CT wrapper is good, will try these in a few days.

 

[deluxestogie]

Very nice. (You can even read the news on the wrapper, while smoking it. But it's backwards.)

Here is one I burned this afternoon. Criollo wrapper,Mata Fina seco, Criollo viso, and Piloto ligero. 54 ring toro.

A long, white ash always looks gorgeous on a cigar, even though they have led to innumerable ashcidents.

Nice looking cigar, and tasty sounding blend.

One of WLT's fine kits! I have great faith in these blends. I believe our brother Deluxe had a hand in many of these blends. I have given away several of these blends to beginner roller wannabes. A great way to start out.

 

[deluxestogie]

Ha! And I thought that JComer was just a meticulous record keeper. I didn't recognize it as a WLT kit label.

At the moment, I'm smoking an ad hoc blend of Honduras Habano and Corojo 99 ligero filler, Besuki double wrapper, and a Honduras Habano wrapper. It's not as pretty as JComer's stick, and is way, way bigger--obese, in fact.

Bob,
I hope to get where i can make some 50 ring ones had to start out slow

 

[Leftynick]

out of kiln rolling.
Same tobacco as last time; little dutch, havana and zimmer. I used each type as wrapper for different stick. Darkest is zimmer, lightest is havana, the biggest is little dutch.

Smallest is the size of regular cigarette. I am rolling these according to leaf size. So the smallest might be the highest nicotine, as it is all ligero.

 

[metalbone]

looking good...

 

[moscca]

Very nice stick Warrior !
What did you use as binder ?

 

[greenmonster714]

Yes, very nice. I do like a good cigar now and then. I only quick smoking them because the wife doesn't like the smell but she does like the pipe tobacco aroma.
