Question on wrapper and strengths of cigars.
I searched and couldn't find anything that related to these.
What wrapper has these little "pimples" or mini bumps on the wrapper? It seems to be a wrapper that is usually thicker. Also, The strength of the cigar ( Mild, Med., Full ) does not directly correlate to the cigars nicotine strength ( Mild = low nicotine, Med.= average nicotine, Full= high nicotine ), correct? |
Re: Question on wrapper and strengths of cigars.
1) I usually see this on Cameroon wrappers. We call it "toothy"
2) correct- you could have a full bodied cigar (one that you can feel is full on the palate) and still have fairly low nicotine content. |
Re: Question on wrapper and strengths of cigars.
Those pimples are called "tooth". So, when you hear about a cigar having a "toothy wrapper" that's what they are talking about. As MJ said, very common on, but not exclusive to, cameroon wrappers.

Vitamin N haha, well thanks guys. Are there any other brands that feature this Toothy wrapper?
I've seen a few Arturo Fuentes that have had this. |

Fuente uses a lot of cameroon wrappers as their "natural" wrapper for the 858s and Hemingways along with a few of their higher end cigars. That's what you're seeing. Just look for cigars with cameroon wrappers and for non-cameroon wrapped cigars, look for "toothy" in the reviews or descriptions. |
