I love this size! They look delicious! My favorites are the Laguito 6x38 or Lancero 7x44 but these would be right up my alley!

My technique to repair a torn wrapper is to patch it on the inside and continue wrapping. If I am wrapping with a lighter colored wrapper, I go light on the glue so as to not stain the wrapper.

I agree with your method. I just didn't notice until it was too late.

@@rezasaba1602 Hey, i think most of the advice I could give is contained in my "How to Roll Cigars, from Binder Prep to Triple Cap" video. Congratulations on getting started and busting out 20 jungle gars! :) That's great. Take your time prepping your leaf. Takes 2 days and 8 light mists minimum to prep wrapper. Don't let stuff get damp, especially if you're in high humidity. Carefully introduce moisture to your leaf as needed, no more.

Does the cap on the cigar has any effect on the curing and or aging of the cigar ?

local guy in my town makes them and sells them, $6 to $8, up to $10 for big ones, really nice smokes, not sure if he leaves the stem in them, looks so but i don't mind burns nicely. edit; for scaps taste i went with something high end recently, Davidoff cuts, mixed into a cigarillo 4in~ (3 1/2), i cant wait to try that (saw a comment about Short-filler)

There used to be more local guys doing it but the laws got too tricky. What locality is that? Not necessarily anything wrong with leaving in the stems. Many major brands do it and their cigars are great.

Hi, Wesley. Bobalu Cigar in Austin sometimes has some leaf for sale: call them and ask for Jeff, the owner.

what do you do with parts of leaves that you cut out?
@BlissCigarCo Жыл бұрын
Use them in short-filler cigarillos. Short-filler is the scraps.

Your wrapper seems quite dry. Is that normal or your preference?

love your videos. i have the same question as Robert.
@BlissCigarCo3 жыл бұрын
You'll notice that my wrappers are very stretchy and flexible. That is because all the moisture I have put on them during conditioning has been fully absorbed into the leaf, which is the point of putting any moisture onto them in the first place. Any surface moisture that has not been absorbed is not doing anything for you, other than giving you a possibly weaker, dirtier wrapper. So, my wrapper leaves are dry to the touch, but they are properly "cased," meaning flexible. I think this is probably both my preference and normal, but of course I know there are a lot of variations on what is normal in cigar production. Most of the time you see wet leaf in rolling videos, it's because they are creating an artificial coloring situation during the rolling process.
