Cuban tobacco

I would like to see a blend that combined the rich mouthfeel and taste of Nicaraguan tobacco with the wider aromatic horizons of Cuban leaf, say a Nic Corojo wrapper, Cuban Binder and filler with a bit of Nic Ligero in the filler for some kick. Now that would be a hell of a cigar.

Just the nic wrapper with no ligero would be incredible, I bet. I'd think the ligero would overpower the other filler. It'd sure be awesome to try it, regardless!!!

Hell Scott, just soak and peel the wrapper off a DPG blue and put it on a Siglo VI and you've made that cigar yourself

According to the rules laid out by the Bush administration, as a US citizen you aren't allowed to consume a Cuban product anywhere in the world, even if it's legal where you happen to be... Any nagging guilt I might have felt about buying the product of expropriation was erased by the satisfaction of giving the finger to my own overreaching government, so I can now enjoy Habanos guilt free. Thanks W!
