Seco, Viso, Ligero, and 11-16. The first three ain't lying: the fillers are all seco, all viso, or all ligero of one variety only, wrapped in a sweet caramel-y floral CT Shade. These leaves all burn well on their own. The 11-16 is an extra blend I rolled during the same sesh. I'll smoke these in 3-to-6 months.
Fancy label :p well done all around ~xox

Decided to try a couple of my home rolls from a month or so ago. First one was pressed in my 54rg mold. Blend was way off. Flavors were very muted. Second one was freehand. Flavors are jumping out and the blend seems spot on.





Any pointers for that 54rg?

Well now I can't seem to find my blend sheet for exact ratios I used. But it was nic ligero, nic, viso, dom seco, double Dom binder, and pa Oscuro wrapper all from LO.

The larger ring gauges are hard to get much flavor out of. The smaller ring gauge has a higher wrapper to filler ratio which makes for more flavor.

Didn't take any pics but rolled a few secs of video. As per the notes on the video: "These robustos come in three different blends, as coded on their labels: viso/ligero, bound in the same viso; viso/ligero bound in Ecuador Habano binder; and Ecuador Habano binder (volado-seco) as both filler and binder." The caps are pretty sketch because they are down'n'dirty double-caps (with the "third" cap cut into the second cap).

It had been far to long without @blisscigarco content.
