Thanks for the insight and that is the kind of feedback I was looking for and by no means was I trying to make this a conspiracy theory type thread. Just trying to fill in the blanks in my head.
I know that each manufacturer has their own processes and use certain seeds for similar leaf grown in a region but I was just trying to make sense in my head why they have had such a hard time getting the yields needed when it seems so many others are producing sticks with wrapper from the same region especially since it seems that so many new sticks as of late are sporting Connecticut Broadleaf as a wrapper. I know the Pepins have a very high standard too and I would figure they would be facing the same issue but I guess the difference must be in the seed.
