La Flor De Cano

[chefchris]

I had a buddy pull a couple of these out on New Years Eve. Has anyone ever had one? It was good, a bit young but good. Also, what was most suprising was it appeared to be machine made. I did not think tht Cuba turned out machine made cigars, apperantly I'm wrong.

To my knowledge, there a couple of machine made cuban brands. I smoked a Guantanamera last week. Jose L Peidra is another machine made Cuban.

Apparently some of the Flor de Cano cigars are handmade as well. From my source though the cigar has been discontinued. There are a couple machine made companies out of Cuba, they are significantly cheaper than a handmade Cuban. (Another machine made cigar is from cuba is made by Ramon Allones).

Are the cuban machine made, or other reputable machine rolled cigars 100% tobacco?

Yup, of course they're 100% tobacco. What else do you think they would put in a cigar?

The JL Piedras ain't too bad to boot.

I remember reading somwhere that most machine made cigars aren't 100% tobacco. They put like paper and other crap in there.

I don't think it is paper. It may be a processed tobacco wrapper like some cheap jiffy store gars. almost like particle board but with tobacco.

Well now, are we talking machine-made Cuban cigars, or shitty "machine made" gas-station cigars?

As far as I knwo the cigerettes there had tabacco i would consider cigar quality in them so I would think so.

I'm sorry to hear that.
