Default Re: Tasteless Connecticut wrappers?

Thanks Tom, that is very interesting. I was referencing Trevor's site http://cubancigarwebsite.com/info-production.htm towards the bottom of the page there is a color chart.

Its interesting that most of the Cuban CT wrappers were grown for export. Its also interesting that it was grown in Partido rather than Vuelta Abajo or other prime areas. I wonder whether this continues today in Cuba.

Wasnt 1995 the year of the first big blight in Cuba? The one where they lost all of the original(old blend) corojo?
