Chopped Cigar Leaf

M Missouri Pride.
Well, if I’m honest - I didn’t think about blending component blends when I started this little project - but - it is a bulk, it does have a SP rating , so here we are.
As far as a stand alone smoke, I’m sure some folks would like it. It delivers on its face to being what it says - a cigar filler blend. It does smoke smooth. It also tastes “strong” in a good way.
As I had the second bowl, I was looking at yesterday’s entry for Chocolate Cavendish and focused on where I said that blend reminded me of a black and mild. Hmmm.
Wonder if a 50/50 blend of the two would yield a better facsimile? So I tried it.
Sorry kids - it was good - hell probably marketable - but it was just too heavy in the cigar and the chocolate too anemic in that arrangement. But I also know what blend is next to review so not all is lost …..
That said - next time I decide to try blending my own blends, I would be open to playing with the cigar leaf.
My rating : 3- this is good - I’d buy it on sale Or to get free shipping in an order to use playing with blends
Wow ! We are a quarter the way through these blends at this point as this is number 25 of 101.
Thanks for coming along for the ride....Read More

Got some of this and several other blenders to try my hand at blending, this one gets used quite a bit even just added to other blends. I don't think I would smoke this by itself tho. This smells just like a cigar shop when you open it though and that's beautiful
Great Condiment

bag note had almost a soured (in a good way) barnyard quality in a powerful fashion, smoked cool however and has brought a component to my blends that hasn't been there. IMO this does need some age, I can't agree with others here though of the association to a premium cigar. This is a good tobacco "in the rough" if you will, but definitely isn't equivocal to a high-end cigar....Read More

I love cigars but sometimes I don't have enough time to smoke it. I guess this is the answer I've been looking for. I really hope C&D produced it in flake or ready rubbed.
Powerful

Pretty powerful. I'd use it to beef up weaker blends. Once in a while, having a bowl plain hits the spot.
awesome!

um to strong and nic is medium. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium to full and consistent, with notes of very woody, very earthy, very spicy, mildly bitter nuts, very dry slight bitterness, mild cocoa, cigar, a mildly sour fermented vegetation background note, and a peppery retro. Room note is strong, and aftertaste is good....Read More

I bought 8oz as I trusted its quite high score here . I am very very disappointed when I saw hundreds of stems and unknown particles among those mildew smell leafs. I have sent an email to SP with pictures but can't get any feedback. Won't buy any more.

uch so that I have trouble tasting anything other than, well, smoke. My wife will come home in a minute and tell me to take a shower. Rating down to 2.5!

For me, a 25 year cigar smoker, the Holy Grail has always been those strong cigars that have lost their sharp edges, in other words: Bold and Smooth. It's a rare thing in a cigar, so pack this in your pipe instead, and experience the Bold and Smooth Organism. Or, something that sounds like Bold and Smooth Organism.
You can also mix this 50/50 to pop up an aromatic like Sutliff Creme Brûlée or PS Nougat. I'm visualizing an Irish Flake with DFK, a silky smooth burly, and cigar leaf. In any application, it's the shiznit....Read More
