What, no Tapatalk billboards out there?
La Chuchada:
A rustic Mata wrapper that Charlie G gave me, round a Vuelta Abajo binder, and filled with 2 Piloto Viso and 2 Nic Seco
It's a test gar. I'll go fire it up in the gar-age shortly.

You need to look up the word "few."Bound & wrapped up a few of what I call the “Webslinger” blend. Blend is derived from leaf that was received in a trade with [mention]webmost [/mention] . Appreciate you brother!

Nice job. That's a really clean looking mold.

Putting in the work this weekend. Torpedos and barber poles are back!!
Thank you! After I finished I remembered why I haven’t done those in so long, lol. They are very time consumingNice! Jealous of those rolls! Barber poles look
I wonder if certain leaves work better together for barber poles. I’ve tried them before and definitely need to practice them more. I’ve tried Candela w/ Brazil CT shade & USA CT Shade ‘06. I would assume any leaf with similar vein structure as whatever you’re pairing together would work best?
Barberpoles require two leaves that have the same or very similar stretch. The veins being similar aren’t as important as that, but the smaller the veins the better, just like any other wrapper
This was one of the mottled wrappers rolled 2 weeks ago, figured I'd taste this old, light blend again:
1:1 piloto seco: Columbian seco
Ec binder
CT wrapper
Yummy. Same earthy (horseshitty) goodness I originally hit on long ago.
The CT from LO is thin. And it is still quite cold here (~30 F). So she split a little in various spots. Still burned well all things considered

@blisscigarco you check all of your draws before you wrap them right?
When rolling this last batch, I did check them, wrapped the ones that were decent and repressed the ones that were a bit too loose. Checked them the next day and they were perfect, so wrapped them there.
I'm guessing that wrapping them like this "locks" them into the correct draw? Thoughts?
