    How to Make Cigars

    Wow, I don't think I would have passed on that either. Was looking at bands last week and I didn't even see blanks close to that price

    Blend testing

    I have one sheik left, the first one was a mighty fine stick. I am a corojo junkie though and the arid climate here is more forgiving on the flame retardant wrapper.

    I should also mention that the author, Simon Chase, is Hunters & Frankau Marketing Director. It's safe to say that the Gran Reservas will happen. In the article he mentions walking amongst bales of aging tobacco in a warehouse in Havana. He writes that it was a sight to behold and a rarity in...

    D4 Riservas

    There is no such thing as the Gran Reserva. Only the reservas-three year old aged like the Cohiba SRs. At 5,000 boxes and at the price set forth above, there'll be plenty of these available. Remember, there were only 500 "Books" produced in each of those runs. These'll be hot at the start...

    Stick in Leaf

    So here's the verdict: I rolled this Sheik (Jorge 1:1:1/2 wrapped & bound w/ corojo oscuro) a week ago. I cloaked it with corojo oscuro wrapper. I set it in the drybox, on the smoking porch, in the heat, for a week. Today, I took the cloak off and peeled off the cigar band, to look for tan...

    Muslin Outcry........

    ...things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached,"' he quoted the emperor as saying. The grand sheik of Cairo's Al-Azhar Mosque, the Sunni Arab world's most powerful institution, condemned the pope's remarks as "reflecting ignorance." The...

    Beetles and temp... theory questioning

    Some people will disagree with the temperature being the cause of the outbreak.. some parts of the world (ie OZ for example) have steadily temperatures over 80-90 for most part of the year.. and that is in the cool part of the house... based on this.. we should have lots of beetles... and we...

    How to Make Cigars

    ...for instance, was rolled freehand, though the fatter one on right was molded. Just a sticky note with the blend on it makes a band. How you like those Sheik cigars bands, by the way? Found a gal on etsy.com selling small gauge surplussed bands from a closed factory for ten bucks a thousand.
