pretty good, i believe it will be much better once it has had a chance to rest, allowing the seco and ligero fillers to mingle. I am doing 2 more of the Nicaraguan fillers with the CT shade leaf, then i will switch back to the dominican.

In just leaf alone, how much do you think is invested in each smoke?

1-2$

I have wrappers, binders and 4 different fillers, I am definitely under 70$ for all the tobacco leafs

I'd be interested cause that minus a Ecuador sumatra as a binder was some of the blends and the leaves I was going to order and am curious on the taste. I do know however the blend would be different but am curious. I myself was waiting till I saved $140 before ordering it so this would be nice to do a review and sample before spending that sum.
My palate broad ranges so in a taste test it is open minded.

I'll have to follow suit when I get up and running and name my first batch Raz after my dog as a kid Rasputin.
Those look sexy on camera by the way.
