Wrappers and Binders are good friends

by Trevor Wallace

As you probably know being the hardcore cigar enthusiast that you have become, the binders on a Cuban cigar play a major role in the overall construction of the Cuban cigar. They hold it together like a mother holding it’s first born baby. The binder is the real hero of your Cuban cigar.

The wrapper serves as the out most layer that holds everything together but the binder is the one that holds the magical Cuban tobacco in perfect condition.If you cigar didn’t have a binder on it that was properly rolled than the tobacco in it will simply fall off.

We are not talking about trashy crappy cigarettes here, this is a Cuban cigar my friend. A tradition that has many days of history behind it and a quite rich one too as I might say. After the binder, comes the wrapper that covers your Cuban cigars. A wrapper is essential for any Cuban cigar and so is the binder. Without these two objects, the whole process is just incomplete.

“Torecdores” or Cuban cigar rollers are well respected individuals and rightfully so. Rolling Cuban cigars is an art form that only the truly gifted can master. When you get a chance to go to Cuba, you must drop by at a Havana factory and see the miracle for yourself. It is simply mind blowing the sophistication behind each single Cuban cigar.
