It’s all in the wrapper and binding

So what holds that Cuban cigar of yours intact.You know the actual layer to the most outside of a Cuban cigar? That oily wrapper (At least it’s suppose to be a little oily if it’s a good cigar)is what is outside of the binder. Yes the construction of Cuban cigars is a art on it’s own.
The wrapper serves as the out most layer that holds everything together but the binder is the one that holds the magical Cuban tobacco in perfect condition.If you cigar didn’t have a binder on it that was properly rolled than the tobacco in it will simply fall off.
These wrappers are usually oily and if they are not, your Cuban cigars are too dry. If the binder is the chassis that holds the ‘tobacco muscle’, than the wrapper is the beautiful exterior of your ‘Lamborghini’ cigar. Yes I know that analogy makes sense now doesn’t it.
“Torecdores” or Cuban cigar rollers are well respected individuals and rightfully so. Rolling Cuban cigars is an art form that only the truly gifted can master. When you get a chance to go to Cuba, you must drop by at a Havana factory and see the miracle for yourself. It is simply mind blowing the sophistication behind each single Cuban cigar.
If the Cuban cigar wrapper is flawed, the whole Cuban cigar is considered a bad cigar. Each Cuban cigar model has it’s own science behind the wrapper they construct and use for their Cuban cigars. Let us consider ourselves grateful that we are living in a time where we can enjoy Cuban cigars and the beauty it represents.
