I chose sumatra. I just finished an RP Edge sumatra that was really good so I am sure that jaded my simple little mind!

I predict that the Maduro will edge out every other wrapper.

What say you?

Is this a threadjack?

I went with maduro but I have not tried most of the options listed.

I think you are right!!!:tu

Maduro fits some of the other wrapper varieties as well... I didn't go into specifics. Lately I have been enjoying the Brazilian variety as well as the Oscuro (mad mad) variety.

Sorry the poll threads only allow 10 choices!!!:(

I love Sun grown but saw it as a variation of the other wrappers!!! Given that tobacco is either shade grown or sun grown!!!

Please correct me if I'm wrong, and I very well may be, but I don't think maduro, which would be my choice of these categories, is actually a "type" of wrapper. It is more of a treatment that other types of wrappers get, so that you can have a connecticut maduro, etc. It is just the result of a longer fermentation process. Just thought I'd throw that out there. I do love maduros :tu

Yes... but, when you are thumbing through the cigar catalogs you don't get this much detail. Sometimes just an N and an M (Natural and Maduro).

What??? Maduro isn't natural???;)

Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
I love a good Maduro, but I had to go with the Sumatra because some of my favorite NC's have sumatra wrappers. I have to say that Maduro is a very close second.

You are right, they do give surprisingly little detail in those descriptions and I couldn't even tell you what the underlying leaf is on most of my maduros. I know I like them though, which is why I cast my vote for them.

I'm with you!!! Make mine Maduro!!!

I love maduro wrappers. I have found I do not like Conn. wrappers much.

yellowgoat 05-20-2009 03:50 PM
Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
I like them all! I can't choose. Maybe Corojo or Sun Grown... I don't know!

Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
Corojo.

Mr Edmundo 05-20-2009 04:30 PM
Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
Corojo and then Maduro for me. Most of the smokes I don't care for are Connecticut wrappers it seems.

theonlybear4CORT 05-20-2009 07:51 PM
Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
Maduro FTW

but the corojo comes a close second and the sumatra bringing up the rear.

Maduro. Everyday of the week, and twice on sunday. Second choice would be sumatra. :tu

I was one of the few who voted Habano but I could have just as easily picked Corojo. I really can't say that I prefer one over the other. It's a case by case basis.

Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
I dont know what the wrapper is. But I love the Arturo Fuente Don Carlos. Is that a Cameroon wrapper leaf?

Very tough decision...though in the end I voted Maduro.

I love a good sumatra. Damn you rocky

Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
I chose corojo, but I love Ecuadorian wrappers as well -- ECCT, ECSU, and Oliva is growing some Habano now in Ecuador that is really nice... I don't know what it is about Ecuador, but these wrappers are extremely aromatic, and quite distinct from the native CT or Sumatra wrappers. :2

Go Team Habanos!!!

What??? Maduro isn't natural???;)

This is an interesting point, but I know I definitely check the origin when they refer to maduros. For example, I definitely prefer a Nicaraguan Maduro over a Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro.

For that reason, it makes it very hard for me to select maduro from the list above.

Also, could Corojo be considered a type of habano wrapper? :D


Sorry - I will try to get back on track - for me, it is definitely Corojo. :D

I was torn between voting for Habano or Corojo but I ended up voting corojo.

Sovereign 05-25-2009 01:22 AM
Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
Oscuro all the way

duckmanco 05-25-2009 04:38 PM
Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
EcSu is almost always unbelievable, but when Corojo (and most of its variant, especially corojo 99) is on, its unbeatable.

Trace63 05-25-2009 08:11 PM
Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
Hmmm....Habanos and Sun Growns = yummy

drhalle 05-26-2009 04:21 AM
Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
I always look for Cameroon wrappers, they are my favorite. That being said, Maduro, Oscuro, Corojo and Habano are second.
Candela is my least favorite.

darkninja67 05-26-2009 04:27 AM
Re: Favorite NC Wrapper
 
I put Corojo but I will smoke pretty much anything.
