Our 2011 Fronto Leaf (LL) (Dark Air Cured Tobacco Leaf) is some of what's left of the previous year's tobacco leaf. This grade is a 2LS, which means it is a binder leaf. For wraps and grabba, there is still plenty of leaf to use, but overall most leaves will have at least one hole making it a binder grade.
For those who love dark air cured fronto leaves, this leaf is the best value. Being aged for over a year aged now, this leaf has darkened and become more mellow. The only minor drawback is the minor leaf damages, which since leaves are sold by weight makes no difference to the consumer!
