5 waiting for Mexican San Andres wrapper

Right off the table this blend impressed me. Lots of flavor transitions
1 LO Nic ligero
1 WLT CV Viso
1 WLT Seco
Half leaf of Mata Fina Viso
Sumatra binder

I’m using a book method of binding. With leaf not all going the same direct I’m getting great flavor transitions.
Normally Nicaraguan leaf isn’t my favorite but I’m really on this LO Nicaraguan ligero


I intend on making at least 12 this afternoon
I hope they age well.

Another surprise
I’ve not liked the Honduran Viso at all. I have to be in the mood for cigars with Honduran wrapper.

So tonight I used 1 Honduran ligero, half Piloto Viso 1 Piloto Seco, wrapped in two Sumatra leaf.
I really liked it. Going to make more.

Is it a BMW?

Huh, I thought it was for a motorcycle. But then it's a really block to fit on a bike so that's out.
it's cool that you know what it is.
My first car was a 1968 beetle. 1500cc, single port heads, 53hp from the factory. Still love them to this day, should have never sold it. I paid $800 for mine after it sat in a barn for 20 years. Today it is worth around $5000 if it has been taken care of by whoever bought it from me.

I bought my '71 Westfalia camper in 1990 for $700. I still own it, still runs killer. The only cars I've owned, in order: '69 BMW 1600; VW Rabbit; '71 Bus, '98 Jetta, '97 Lexus.
