Ohhhh... nice to know... I've never ordered from WLT before... I'll check it out! Thank you! xox
I use them almost exclusively for my filler, I love their corojo the most, especially when combined with their criollo. Their Brazilian Mata Fina has wonderful flavors as well unless you don't like rich molasses sweetness and a smooth/creamy smoke

ReMix -- You have some criollo, dontcha? Try this: A pinch of the corojo ligero you ordered, for punch; your new Mata for body; with a full leaf of criollo seco for spice. I haven't made those for I dunno how long. Need time to mellow, but good.

That sounds yummy ... I'll definitely try it out next week... :D thanks for the hot tip! :kiss:

Continued progress on the celebrity cigar order. I have figured a way to make longer sticks with my mold. Place them foot first in the mold, let sit 30 mins, rotate and let sit another 30 mins, then flip so the head is in the mold and wrap the excess in paper to keep from expanding. It's a bit of work, but it works well and it appears I will hit the 12" mark out of this batch

Did your celebrity homeboy say he'd prefer twelve inches to ten?

How are you wrapping, two half-leaves?
My Ecuadorian Habano wrapper is long enough to wrap that with one half leaf if I'm careful enough. I haven't run the extra length by him yet, but can't imagine he wouldn't want a few at 12". If he wants to stick to 10" I will keep the larger ones for myself as a novelty and to bust out when the guys meet up for a smoke just to be ridiculous.
