Yeah, I've seen that thread, maybe you can tell me where to find Mata Fina on the current WLT web site.

I couldn't find it either, Don posted it on the forum the other day. Maybe just call him to be sure; or this may be it.

Thanks, but no, that's one of the new Fronro's he is listing.
Sorry, the Mata Fina is out of stock. I might have more in a couple of months.

Although I can't get my translator to give me an American equivalent, I believe "Mata Fina" could mean "Fine Mat" or maybe even something along the lines of prized stack of flattened leaf. Either way, it imparts a flavor into a Cigar like no other leaf. It would be nice to have a milder version as well, for filler's sake.
I always keep this in my regular rotation. The next time it comes in, I'd like to stock up a bit

Mata Fina is from Brazil where they speak Portuguese. The literal translation to English of Mata Fina "thin forest". Mata Fina is a southern region in Brazil where the tobacco is grown opposed to Mata Norte which is a tobacco growing region in the north.

the more i learn about tobacco the more i realize i know almost nothing.
As Don points out, Mata Fina is a place, rather than a description of its tobacco.

That is an incredible link! So much so, that I had to save it! Thanks for clearing up the language. I knew there were different dialects of Latin languages in SA, I couldn't remember "which".

Bob, I nominated that post for special consideration a while back. I've got to learn to take better notes on this site! I'm finding that while I have memory of General information here, I don't always have them for quick reference. I've learned a ton from you, Don, Knucks and others on here.

Dondford, Anyone step up to get you some Mata Fina? It only take a half leaf or less for each cigar. Send a PM with address and I'll send you some. #12
