I went to Jamaica on vacation and there was an old guy with several plastic grocery bags full of the day's selected tobacco leaves. Working on what looked to be a 100 year old meat butcher-block table, he would hand roll a cigar of any kind for 5-10 bucks right on the spot. It was the coolest thing.

Thank you. I just need to say that the idea that smoking one cigar is bad for you and will harm you is ridiculous propaganda of those who can't bare the idea of others enjoying life. The science tells us that the benefits of cigar smoking--relaxation and lower stress, thus lower inflammation, thus lower mortality, thus longer lifespan--that men who smoke cigars live on average 6 years longer than those who don't. So please my friend consider the holistic facts before allowing others to lessen the pleasure you experience in this one life.

@obiwanfisher537

@@BlissCigarCo The chaveta is not even the issue (30 dollars is less than I spend in a night drinking haha), more like the cigar press, the right glue, and maybe the cutter to get them to a uniform length (although I don't mind eye balling those, as they are only for myself anyway). I might end up having to make my own cigar press but still need to figure out what glue you're using for cigars, so that it's neutral to taste, is not toxic to burn and still works.

@BlissCigarCo

6 ай бұрын

@@obiwanfisher537 Right. So the glue is called Bermocoll. It's vegetable gum. You can get a small jar of the power from leafonly.com from around $10. It'll last for years. If you buy a leaf kit from wholeleaftobacco.com it'll come with a little pouch of powder. Any circular metal thing with an edge can be a cap cutter, typically a copper pipe fitting. You can eyeball and use your cigar cutter. So that leads the mold (I think when you say press you mean mold: molds go into presses--or in my case I just puts weights on the mold to press it.) So, a quality wood mold is around $80 delivered from a place like Hondurascrafts on Etsy. So, still within a night out drinking range, depending on how generously you tip after you've had a few. :)
