And not a "re-roll" or "blunt" either!
While prepping some brass I'm enjoying a cigar I rolled at a La Gloria Cubana Serie R Esteli event held at a local cigar shop a while back. It's been resting in one of my humidors.
At the event there was a master roller making event exclusive cigars in a large torpedo format. He was also showing newbies how to roll a straight sided cigar in a 6x50 format. The innards, i.e. pre-bunched filler and binder, were a standard La Gloria blend, and the wrappers were Esteli leaves that didn't make the appearance standard for commercial use.
My cigar turned out to be pretty good. After the first 3/4" or so the burned evened out nicely. It's been a good, straightforward med-full bodied smoke.
