  • This video will explore the making of a handmade, premium cigar. After the tobacco has been grown, picked, cured, fermented, and aged, it is ready to be assembled into cigars. This video shows how the wrapper, binder and filler leaves are prepared and then put together into cigars. Different techniques for bunching and rolling the cigars are also shown.
    This video is a remastered version of an earlier upload. Much higher quality, some different media and higher resolution stills.

    This was great, especially the chuckle I got at the 30s vs 5m30s rolling comparison. That would be me.
    Now we need a vlog of the process of siting a patch of tobacco, harvesting seed pods, starting, fertilizing, weeding, smashing tobacco worms, cutting, stacking, racking high in barns and curing and stripping and packing and warehousing. There's a lot more to it :) The best wrappers in the world come from the best soil (geology), in the most productive non-irrigated land in the world. That same county, also produced record-breaking levels of CBD oil output, the first year it came into production. We are losing that ground to housing and paving.

    What magnificent artistry! I always try to remember the work that goes into each cigar that I smoke (granted, I only enjoy a couple every month LOL). And watching the hands of the master rollers tells me one big difference between "los torcedores" and workers in a cigarette factory: "los torcedores" have a career to be proud of.

      moodonha For about five bucks or so, you can buy a small bottle, usually less than an ounce, of glue and use it for repairing your cigars. I can't remember where I bought my bottle, but you can do a web search.
      Or, better, you can go down to your local supermarket and buy some liquid pectin that's used for preserving home made jams and jellies. It's the same stuff. You can buy 6 fluid ounces of liquid pectin for less than five dollars. Be sure to get liquid pectin and not the powder. The powder is too messy.

    • @yumchin42
      @yumchin42 10 лет назад +1

      They're usually a lot more 'rich'... I don't know how else to explain it, other than just 'rich' or 'ripe'. It has to do with the growing conditions in Cuba; the perfect temperature, humidity, soil pH, experienced farmers, buncherros, torcedores, etcetera. They usually output the best to keep their good name, and the hype kind of contributes to a sort of placebo effect. I've had two Habanas and one counterfeit from the D.R., and couldn't tell the difference until I looked closely at the bands. Good smoke overall, hope you can get ahold of one. I got mine on vacation and didn't have any issue bringing them back home.

      Daniel Jaquez They don't sell cigars at retail at the factory. Although they will give you some to smoke while you are there, they don't retail cigars. No factory does, that I know of. It's probably easier to get cigars in the states than in the countries where the cigars are made. Kinda strange, but true.
