    Scanned this thread very quickly and I think some clarification can be had here:

    Totalmente a mano

    Totally by hand. A description created in Cuba to differentiate between the Cuban method of making cigars by hand and the semi-mechanised techniques used elsewhere that can legally be described as ‘Hecho a mano’ or ‘Hand-Made’.


    Also, Newfie, some well-intended advice: Log off, get some time between yourself and these postings, come back tomorrow or even next week and then come back and consider what's important here.
    Equality is not seeing different things equally. It's seeing different things differently.

    Basil (or whomever can answer)-
    I do have a question about the differences between “made by hand” and “totally made by hand”. What process is semi- mechanized per say when they are trying to differentiate between the two?

    I do know there are cigars that are made by machine, but finished by hand (i.e. Quinteros). I believe there are those cigars that are TOTALLY machine made, some that are made by machine but finished by hand, while most others that are totally made by hand....

    Hope I just confused the crap out of ya'...

    So you're going to sit there and say newfie did nothing wrong, is that what you're saying? I don't even understand why you saw fit to post now after all the dust has settled.

    because you don't seem to want to let it go......if i'm allowed an opinion...you were wrong...keep it up...this time you'll be getting rid of a good one....


    newfie should tell you to go fuck yourself for crawling on his ass the way you did...you admit you're having trouble dealing with some....keep chasing them off.....then you'll be able to correct your own spelling....


    look ma...no smiley and no edit...
