lending is a little like cooking. Each type of tobacco being the individual components of the plate the cook is making. There are different tobaccos that are available to the cigar blender. The variety of tobaccos that a plant must keep inventory, increases with the number of brands that is necessary to keep so that the character of the blend is maintained over the years.

One element of difficulty is that unlike liquids, what one blend in cigar making, are leaves and fractions, most commonly half leaves.

Over the years, the varieties of tobacco that has been used for years, are obviously familiar to the makers, and therefore, less complicated to work with. When one phases a new variety or a new combination, the answers to the questions are even more pertinent. Over my years in the business I started changing the way tobaccos were received and used. Parts of the changes are, per Cigar Master example, the fermentaBlender, tion of tobaccos accorJosĂŠ Seijas ding the foliage stage from which they were picked. By doing this, we created meaning to the blending itself.

When we started implementing, the new rules, the consistency of our blends improved is to smoke and taste the different dramatically and we had aromas, taste, and strength. all the tobacco people cooperation There are different ways make cigars: and support, because it did not make making it with only tobaccos origisense do in any other way. nating in one and only one country.
