I meant in general. Your box looks legit as I'm sure your source is reputable. These are both obviously good things.

I was trying to say is before trying a new source it's always a good idea to speak to a few guys that have been around to get some opinions and experiences with said source. I've seen quite a few guys get burnt by not doing DD before purchasing.

I bet... Ive only bought from two sources... both have been legit as far as I can tell, and my friend buys from one of them all the time.

I thought all cigars were rolled in the same direction. You should always lose half a leaf. How could you roll with the veins going in wrong direction. It appears you have sticks that are rolled backwards. I've never noticed a cigar rolled that direction. JMHO!

I looked in my box of ten that was all sealed up and it had the same thing. Also the color of the wrappers goes from light to dark in the right direction as well.

One side of the wrapper leaf is what goes "outside". It's the upper face of a leaf as seen in a live plant. Ye cut it in half to use half for a cigar. Wrapper leaves are the most meticulously chosen and the most expensive; and ye still have half left that is inverted to what ye just used. What to do? Roll inverted and use what's left.

Thanks Moro. I've smoked cigars for better then ten years and thought all cigars were rolled in the same direction. I had to go look at a box to check, I was flabbergasted! Not sure where I ever got that idea.

Anyway, thanks for pointing that out.

It's a minor detail, so it's easy to pass by. :thumbsup:
