Two Friday's ago I went to a good friends wedding. He had a cigar roller come out for the venetian hour. The dude rolled 150 cigars in a little over an hour. It was pretty impressive to watch. The wrapper is a Connecticut shade leaf, with a Dominican binder, and Honduran filler.
I bought a box of Perdomo Lot 23 to hand out to whoever so I opted to continue smoking those instead. I'm happy I did because the smell of the fresh rolled ones were kind of bitter. I did take home 2 of the fresh rolled sticks and they are now aging in my humi. I'm going to try one in 6 months or so. I'm hoping they just smelled bitter because they weren't aged. I guess I'll find out.
