    That's what the second cigar is for - finish sanding and staining. This was the barberpole wrap with candela and rosado. The rosado reminds me of the HB2K in flavor and feel. However, the rosado leaves are bigger in size and the color is really nice. Burn was good. I had a about 1/4" of...

    I did. Was worried when I opened the bag as it does not smell like tobacco. It smells like it belongs in your spice cabinet with the herbs. Maybe sage and wet grass? However, it was a pleasure to wrap with it. Thin and stretchy - the best I have used so far. Burned well and flavor was a hint of...

    Nice bands

    they were unusable for me and the wife felt bad as they were a present. I'll find them and upload a picture when I get home later, but they are just like a sheet of stickers with the waxy paper backing. You would have to cut each one out and leave the backing on.

    Nice bands

    self adhesive = stickers. My wife ordered me some bands from labelsonthefly.com with that same description as a present last year. They were stickers.

    will roll a couple this weekend and let you know. Reviews I have seen so far are saying it's neutral in flavor. Like you said, it looks really nice and the leaves are a nice size. Although, the rosado looks even better.

    WLT - a pound each of the Nic rosado wrapper, candela wrapper, and T-13 viso. Think I am going to try a barber pole wrap.

    2 CV criollo ligero, 1 CV CV hab seco, olor seco binder, wrapped in LO perique. Smooth with a lot of white pepper and wonderful aroma. Too much vitamin N though - made me jittery and that usually doesn't happen. The perique looked nice and burned well as a wrapper but won't use it again in...
