... Get those stogies rolling!  It's been a while since I rolled up a few cigars so I busted out the Chaveta (Late 1800's vegetable chopper) and pulled out some leaf. The far left is my binder/wrapper, Besuki, an Indonesian variety. The next three are all Dominican Piloto Cubano ... Ligero, Seco and Viso  |

Hi, good stuff, I only have time for a nice mini cigar, better than you think ( ask Mr Thomas Edison), but I want to try a Kentucky leaf cigar next, but over here there are no bars to smoke (with the gunsmoke), ;-),there is only smoking within the glass boxes, or with the tramps or fishermen in parks, hi, bye.

Fascinating, this cigar rolling. I watched a guy in Vegas rolling and he slowed down and explained the technique. He sat me down and had me try one but it was a disaster. He laughed and told me I had too many thumbs. Hats off to you and anyone else with this ability.

There used to be a Lovo's cigar shop near Sun city, and a fourth generation Dominican woman had a monthly rolling event... she rolled some great smokes, but slow business caused them to only operate out of Vegas and LA.
Pretty cool, Darin.
