Our 2LS CT Broadleaf cigar binder is basically just Connecticut's grade for binder. It has a popular light tone, with a beautiful tan brown on the outside of the wrapper. The leaf is soft and darker on the inner side.
Grown on the Connecticut Broadleaf Plant, the 2LS grade are leaves that are not quite wrapper, but still plenty good enough to be binder. Sometimes even wrapper leaves can be found in the mix!
This leaf has a light tone with a beautiful tan brown on the outside of the tobacco. CT tobacco sometimes has prominent veins, but they can be rolled down with a rolling pin.
This leaf is one of the first binders we ever offered at Leaf Only, and remains a crowd favorite! Also some of the least expensive Connecticut Broadleaf available!
"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.

Good binder though it does take extra prep time since it's not flat packed and it tends to be gritty/sandy so I dunk it in a bucket of water while flattening it out to rinse off any dirt particles. It is quite thick and easy to work with, it has very little flavor of its own so it won't over power whatever you want to put inside or around it.

This is great leaf to work with!...a beautiful color ranging from light tan to a dark reddish brown. I've found leaf suitable for wrapper in amongst this stuff, it makes good wrapper with it's amazing elasticity. There are a few big veins on this large leaf but they're easily rolled out during preparation. I'll happily buy more of this tobacco..
