I think I have a problem . . . my cigar smoking is interferring with my job. I really should think about getting another job.

My wife is on my case that I have too many cigars. I keep telling her "That's impossible. You can never have too much of a good thing."

Now that Spring is sprung I intend to make a dent in the collection I've been growing this winter. The weather is better for me to walk the dog (which is code language in my house for have a smoke.)

I live in the Connecticut River valley and once the river waters subside, the cheesecloth will come out and the leaves will start agrowing. It's pretty neat to see the best quality CT Shade wrappers from their infancy to product. Although, I will admit I do prefer the maduros, cameroons and oscuros. However, I have found that Victor Sinclair is producing cuban seed CT grown wrapper. Its not a broadleaf but not quite as smooth as the CT shade. It has a good tooth to it.

I hope that other rollers will find a use for this leaf.

I have a lot more dog walks ahead of me and time on the golf course for my smokes, but would like to participate in a pass. Anyone starting one up soon?
 
From R.I., welcome to CP, enjoy your stay...btw, i have seen the cheesecloth in the valley you speak of, pretty cool sight. Never knew Ct. was a large tobacco producer, until a friend who has a home in Ct, with an old tobacco barn on his property, told me. Take care!
 
Welcome. Read the newbie faq, and participate in a newbie trade with one of the fogs. These will help get you known so folks will let you in on a pass. Like others have said, (and you appear to know a bit already), no matter how much you know or how long you've been smoking, you're still a newbie. Which is good, since those fogs are currently losing the war.

Welcome. You'll enjoy it here. How is the cheesecloth used? Shade?
