Fortunately for you, an easy test has just arrived! Rick Rodriguez of La Gloria was at Town and Country Cigars in Euless Texas last week showing off his new cigar, Artesanos de Tabaqueros. You have to see this thing to believe it-first third of the cigar has a Connecticut Shade wrapper, the rest has a Sumatra wrapper. The two are so closely butted together it almost looks seamless. Tasty, too! Though I will confess I preferred the Sumatra part...really shows you how the wrapper provides the flavor. It DEFINITELY tastes like two completely different cigars!
