Left to right, cigars 5 and 6. Both are Yellow Twist Bud burley filler and Silver River binder and wrapper.

Cigarillo felt really good, but the binder and wrapper for the corona sized #6 were both too dry, and damaged from storage to begin with. I don't even know if it will smoke.

That Ecuador maduro wrapper looks beautiful. Tried out a little pigtail cap on one today, came out pretty good.

I really liked it. It was 2 Cibao Valley Corojo Viso, 2 Paraguay Flojo Seco, 2 Nicaragua Habano Seco, 1 San Andreas Wrapper (in the filler), it was bound with 1.5 leaves of Dominican Binder, and wrapped twice, using 1 leaf of Bezuki

Dominican Piloto Cubano Seco and Ligero in a Besuki binder / wrapper:

Not the prettiest but it was a creamy smoke with lots of leather and spice / pepper ... a bit of dark currant, cocoa and cedar as it progressed.
Also kept a fairly even burn all the way down:

The bottom ones look tastier. I see that you have wisely redacted the length displayed on the mold.

I always have a dilemma with photos of cigars. They always look better under natural light, and look closer to what my eye sees. But the flash provides sharper detail, though the colors wash out. I've fiddled with both in Photoshop, but have never been satisfied with contrast or color curve adjustments of either.

Yeah, it seems the paint didn't make it in the 5 there? I don't know. this mold is from that seller with all those plastic molds back then. the stix that come out are 39/40 0.62 in. . It seems all those molds he sold had something wrong with a lot of them..
WLT bought a bunch of 50s in bulk. they were on the cheep for sure.
I started taking pix with and with out a flash cause it made sense.
kinda torn myself about which I like more.. didn't put this one in the tripod this time so its missing a little quality.
