Our Medium CT broadleaf is quite popular, darker than expected, and much more like our 1DW Maduro in texture, but just slightly thinner and much larger.
If you are looking for a Maduro and don't mind a larger leaf, this is the right tobacco leaf for you. Moderate vein size but they roll out easily.
The MED Connecticut Broad Leaf Wrapper is taken from the middle of the CT broadleaf plant, so as expected, it's profile is right in between the CT 1LS and the CT 1DW Maduro.
Every year, containers of this leaf, as well as other premium wrapper grades such as the 1LS and Maduro are shipped to premium cigar manufacturers in the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. Many name-brand cigars use this leaf regularly, and for good reason! It's large, easy to work with, and grown in CONNECTICUT!
"I flashed up a cigar, hand made no less with Pennsylvanian filler, Aged Dominican Volado filler, Dominican binder and Ecuadorian Seco Shade wrapper! I rolled it a little loose so it is not the best draw, but, man what a flavourfull smoke. Once I get the rolling pressure down this will be my go to smoke. An absolute full to overflowing mouthfull of rich vanila-ish, bitter chocolate flavour. I am pleased beyond expectations. I will try another blend from my last order to tweak it some more, but, wow! what a pleasant surprise. Thank you again for being there with all your help ordering and supplying. I think the people at Leaf Only work very hard to please their customers.
