    Default Rosado Wrappers?

    Other then Opus X's, what cigars sport the rosado wrapper?

    Cabaiguan Juan,

    The Partagas Spanish Rosado has a rosado wrapper. In my extremely limited experience, it has become a favorite of mine (in fact, I've got one on my desk I will smoke this weekend).

    thanks tampa. I know wrappers add a lot to a cigar, so I'l ask this question how do they compare to the Opus?

    Default Sorry...

    haven't gotten around to smoking an Opus yet. Based on its reputation, I imagine the Opus overshadows the Partagas but that's just a guess.

    No where near as good.

    I guess based on price alone the two would not be in the same level. Are there any other rosado wrappers out there?

    Didn't Fuente make a 858 Rosado at one time ?

    I know the guys over at CF are always talking about them.

    perdomo uses rosado wrapper...

    Cuban ParejoŽ is delicately wrapped in your choice of lustrous Nicaraguan Sun Grown Rosado or Maduro wrapper; or a smooth and creamy Connecticut Shade wrapper. All these exquisite cigars are packaged in Spanish cedar boxes of 20, except "Galaxia", which is individually packaged in a cedar "coffin".

    uses a sungrown rosado wrapper on their King B (www.tampasweetheart.com).

    I need to score one of those.
