Aged Ecuadorian Ligero Filler

Description

Our Aged Ecuadorian Filler Leaves are known to be a thinner, milder leaf, and is revered as a flavorful filler in the cigar manufacturing industry.

These leaves are much larger than they look in the picture. This tobacco is grown from the Habano 2000 seed, much like it's wrapper quality counterpart. Just keep in mind that shade grown tobacco is usually much more fragile that sun grown wrappers (think Maduros and Oscuros) and requires a bit of finesse.

One of the most interesting tidbits about this leaf is that it is said to be "cloud grown". From what we understand, the region they are grown has almost constant cloud coverage (being in the mountainous foothills of Ecuador).

What People Are Saying About Leaf Only

"I am really impressed with the quality, freshness, and varieties available to me through Leafonly.com. Not only am I smoking less daily as a result of a better choice for my habit. I am enjoying blending, processing, and smoking my final result. Like a fine wine, brandy, or cognac that is precisely how I would describe my tobacco. Canadian organic flue cured to The robust St James Perique. I Went from two packs a day American Spirits to ten of my "designer" cigs. I am using a recycled pasta cutter. The spaghetti cutter is working great to process the leaves, the moisture content of the leaves upon arrival was perfect, I guess around 18%. Cut, gentle toss and its perfect for smoke. I even rolled a few cigarillos with my blend using the St James Perique as a wrapper. Successfully! Thank you, I do look forward to trying more variety as time goes on. "
