Yes that is also a hybrid from what information I have. So far Padilla and Los Nietos Cigars "Luca Del Toro" is what cigars use a hybrid wrapper.

I have not smoked the Padilla Hybrid it uses Cuban-seed and Connecticut-seed tobaccos. But I have smoked the Los Nietos Cigars "Luca Del Toro" . It uses a Nicaraguan Habano 99 Hybrid wrapper.

Thought this would be a good topic to discuss since not many cigars use a hybrid wrapper. And my go to smoke is Los Nietos Cigars "Luca Del Toro" .. And I can smoke any cigar I want since I work in a shop but I keep going back to the Luca Del Toro .. The flavor is just different then any other honduran cigar I have ever smoked.

Yeah, I smoked one, its kinda cool to actually taste the difference in the wrapper as it goes from natural to maduro, back to light, then back to maduro again

Yeah I have heard good things about the Padilla Hydrid. Just not had the chance to smoke one yet.

Most tobacco out there is a hybrid of one type or another. Is there a specific wrapper you are seeking?

Very true, Just looking for what other cigars are using the Hybrid wrappers on the market.

You will be hard pressed to find a wrapper that is not a hybrid. Seeds are moved from country to country and then hybridized with local tobacco which is more suited to the climatic conditions and pest resistant.

Wasn't the old H2000 a popular hybrid leaf that was/is commonly used as a wrapper?

I am smoking a Padilla hybrid right now. Gotta be honest, not super thrilled with it.

I personally enjoy them. For the price you can get them in bundles now (stopped doing boxes I guess) they are a solid smoke I would say. But then again I tend to smoke them when I'm writing papers or doing homework and don't really focus on the cigar as much
