Default Re: PR Edge Maduro Dyed Wrapper

From those reps and tobacco types I've spoken to, the wrappers that are cooked are the ones that normally rub off. Apparently the dyes usually hold pretty well. Just what I've been told, I'd like to see if it were true first hand but the only manufacturer I know that I can walk into his factory quickly doesn't use cooked or dyed leaves.

I would like to inject a note for thought also - "cooking" the leaves to accelerate the fermentation process which naturally produces oily sugary wrappers, manufacturers will also add sugar. So although dye may be added, don't be so quick to judge. Saliva and/or combined with heat can and will cause the sugar/oils to be pulled from the wrapper.

I'm a maduro fan. So no doubt I have had my fair share of dye induced wrappers - I don't get stains. I don't wet, lick or otherwise slobber on my cigars - dry lips I guess.

Anyway - just something for thought.
