Ordered Leaf

Post by Stewmuse » Fri Aug 01, 2014 6:45 pm

When you order whole leaf tobacco, most places sell it by the pound, and you can get, depending on the size of cigar you roll, about 20-25 cigars per pound. The leaf will typically arrive in sealed plastic bags, and you can leave the leaf in these bags for storage, just removing the individual amounts you want when rolling.

Yes, indeed, star. I get most of my leaf from them now, altho there are some South American tobaccos I've gotten from wholeleaftobacco.com.

Another bundle of love from LeafOnly.com. This may be a watershed shipment, as I be will finishing my last remaining stock of Ecuadoran binder from OtoaoCigars.com this week, which I've used from Day 1 of rolling. If I like this Domincan binder, it will become the new binder of choice. Time will tell.

Happiness is new varieties of leaf to try. Some Habano Piloto viso, some Habano 2000 wrapper, and a couple of other samples. These are all from wholeleaftobacco.com. Fire up the laboratory!
