Your first question may be, "Why?"

In a moment of both laziness and haste, I reached into my gallon Ziplock bag filled with long cigar scraps, grabbed a fistful, tore the wad of scrap to a modest length, then wrapped it (no binder) in a scrap of Habano 2000--the arc trimmed from the heavy-veined, back edge of a wrapper. No book. No entubado. No nothing. Just a wad of scrap oriented in the same direction.

There you have it. No brain cells were disturbed in the planning of this cigar.

The surprise is that it lit easily, burns well and draws beautifully. The random blend is balanced and enjoyable.

You have to admit that it's a fun thing to look at.

101_0016.jpgHere is my first attempt in about a year of laziness.

Looks don't mean much too me. Taste and quality of burn matters more. this one fell short on burn.
