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.

Here 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.

 

[deluxestogie]

Since we know it's aged tobacco, it's probably either too moist or too tight.

Bob

Too moist and too not paying attention, It still reminded me what I have been missing.

 

[BarG]

I still have a couple dozen of Don's original Bezuki leaves, I plan on using them wislier than the last cigar. heh heh

I still have a ton of Bezuki leaves unkilned from a past grow. huge crop. it did great.

 

[BarG]

Do you want me to send you some Bob for you to kiln.? You are the kiln maestro in my opinion.

 

[deluxestogie]

Do you want me to send you some Bob for you to kiln.?

Aaah! Please no. I currently have a backlog of my own leaf occupying my curing shed, and the kiln will be used for flue-curing, starting in 3 or 4 weeks.
