    these are a machine made brand. they use short filler and "sheet" tobacco (produced from either reconstituted or homogenized tobacco and pressed into sheets much like paper). most of the guys here are not into that style of cigar.

    Is this true of the 1929 el producto in the luxury collection section too? I can't imagine paying that much for a chepo cigar no matter how old or limited.

    no. They used to be good. The change was in the 60s I think. The old blend was a connecticut wrapper and binder with cuban and puerto rican filler.

    Yes! He said he liked them because they stayed lit on stage so he didnt have to puff constantly
