You don't have to work in a factory, man. Ever heard of a back-door bodega?

I have not, but I think I get your meaning. I've always been a fan of business models that involve knowing a password/ code phrase to get in.

1/2 Coro ligero
1 Coro seco
1 Coro viso
Sumatra binder
Brazilian Mata Fina wrapper
~5x42
One week rest, will smoke when I’m back home.
The mata Fina is a nice forgiving wrapper, and very very toothy.

Beautiful first stick, well done.
I too struggle with wrapping, but am getting better.
What’s the composition ?
This one is about 5 Dominican seco leaves, two Dominican ligero, a double Sumatran binder and a Connecticut broadleaf wrapper.

A few hand rolls from a quick rolling session last night. Using up some odd leftover binder and wrapper leaves and wasn't going for beauty. Even though not used, the molds make a great drying rack. Filler was Rene seco, and Criollo 98 ligero and viso.

My very first roll ever. I ordered a Melodioso Cremosa kit from WLT.
Filler is 1 1/2 dominican seco
1/2 dominican ligero
Single sumatra binder
Conn shade leaf wrapper
It's about 5" x 42
I did not cap it but did press it in a mold for an hour each side, then placed in cigar box overnight.
It is burning and smoking well, heck it's better than alot of store bought I have had.
It isn't pretty and probably not rolled 100% correct, I am enjoying it though.

I am blown away by this stick.Welcome to your new obsession! It’s all downhill from here!
It has burned flawlessly, the draw is just like I like and the taste is WOW!
I usually like medium bodied smokes - this is a mild medium almost medium.
I cant describe flavors well but I get a hint of cream, some other nice flavor, no spice and it is smooooooth.
There is now 1 1/4" of it left and i wouldn't dream of putting it down.
Correct sir, I am hooked now.

Trying olor for the first time:
2 olor seco
1 olor ligero
Sumatra binder and wrapper
I chose Sumatra since it seems to be pretty neutral in flavor, and I really wanted to get an impression of the olor.
I get mild, salty, and dry black tea. I think this could be very nice with some Corojo. Great choice for milder cigars.
