Really? Ironically, that is just a synopsis I pulled from a retailer.

Yep. Positive. Unfortunately, that misinformation is still all over the place. I certainly don't blame you for it.

Binder - Plantation Grown Brazilian Mata Fina
Filler - 4 Different Nicaraguan leaves + 1 Honduran Leaf

Flying Pig
Identical to the No. 9 except there is more Nica Viso and Ligero due to its ample girth.

T52:
Wrapper - Connecticut Grown Stalk Cut & Stalk Cured Sungrown
Binder - Plantation Grown Brazilian Mata Fina
Filler - 4 Different Nicaraguan leaves + 1 Honduran Leaf - however, the 2 of the Nica fillers are different from the No. 9 blend as are the proportions.
Hope that helps clear it up some.

I love the T-52 and the Toro tends to be my go to Vitola for this stick but I too have noticed that consistency has been a little bit of an issue the last couple of months. Hopefully it will be a short lived issue as these tend to be my go to smoke.

Yeah, I've had several before this that were delicious. Tonight was a major disappointment, as I only smoke them on a rare occasion.
