How is the draw of an 8" cigar ?
Haven’t cut anyone yet. But with this ring gauge I assume they’ll be fine.. I’ll report back anyway!

Lately I have been rolling more large cigars for my own consumption, and I think it relates to an increasing tolerance/addiction. Here are few gordas. These are bound in Larry's CTBL, which makes an excellent binder and has about a 50+% binder yield.

My marshmallow blend is my "calibration" blend for all new wrapper since I roll more of that blend than anything and know that blend the best. I haven't tried to smoke any of this candela yet, so I can only judge the appearance, the stretch, and the usability. It does smell pretty mild which is to be expected. I am leaning towards a stronger filler blend to add some excitement to the mild wrapper. We will see how my theory pans out.
I should know this evening
Usually grassy.
This is my experience except a few. @Marc L has said it wasn't very grassy and I'm hoping that's the case.
Here's what I got done for batch 1. Gotta test one and see how it is before I start rolling a ton for the club in case the blend is just bad with the wrapper.
Marshmallow blend with candela wrapper is a winner. Slight grassiness, but not much. Sweetness from the filler and a hint of cream. I dig
is the burn alright?Marshmallow blend with candela wrapper is a winner. Slight grassiness, but not much. Sweetness from the filler and a hint of cream. I dig

It burns great! My only burn issues were due to the bunch still being wet from being fresh off the table that day but those were minor issues and I knew ahead of time what I was getting myself into. It is a super thin leaf, it's like working with a fine CT shade. It has no problems burning.
