Rolled My Own!
Last night was so cool. My local cigar shop had a representative from Miami Cigars come with a roller for La Aurora cigars. They had a deal where if you bought two cigars from the table (La Aurora and Leon Jimenes) you could have a cigar rolled for you right in front of you. I learned a lot. The roller was a "Class 7" roller, which meant master roller. The coolest part was that you got to roll your own wrapper over the pressed binder and filler if you wanted to. I tried it; it's really tricky. However, it was a lot of fun and I at least have a cigar that I have rolled myself now. I think I will have it tonight or tomorrow night and save the one that was custom rolled for a month or so. I also told the rep from Miami Cigars to check out ClubStogie, so maybe he'll stop by. Had a really good conversation with him, and learned a lot about the business. Just thought I'd share!

Re: Rolled My Own!
That's way cool, I would love to see the whole process without going to somewhere in Latin America. I think I will suggest this to some of the local shops.
I too would love to see any pics you have of your own cigar! |

I went to a similar even done by La Aurora six or seven years ago in Phoenix. I was pretty impressed by the quality of cigars he was rolling on site. In fact, I still have a churchill he rolled for me.

Re: Rolled My Own!
Last night I had the one that I rolled, and it turned out pretty well, although the draw was a little loose. And the cigar was a little mild for my taste, but hey; I got to smoke a cigar that I made! I took pictures, and I will try to get them up here this weekend.

Re: Rolled My Own!
Cool. Let me tell you a story: I was sitting at my shop's lounge having lunch, and this guy sits next to me, we stroke a nice conversation while enjoying a smoke and some cuban coffee. The guy happened to be the owner of Miami Cigar. It surprised me that he was so down to earth. I know a couple of their sales rep anf they are great people, very fun to hang around with.
