La Flor De Cano

**597** · 03-09-2007, 09:20 PM

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?

Yeah, I guess what I read would have been refering to the crap gas station smokes.

Hope it was long leaf filler at least. I remember reading once that some cigars with the processed filler have something like salt peter added to promote an even burn. When someone tires to tell me I'm smoking that same thing as thier cigarette I always think of that and all the other additives in processed tobacco products. But my cigar stinks. Yeah right.
