Our Ecuadorian Binder Tobacco Leaves are mild, thin, and smooth. Light, but large enough to easily work with, these Ecuadorian tobacco leaves are a joy to roll!
The Ecuadorian Binder Tobacco Leaf is known to be a thinner, milder leaf, and is derrived from its beautiful wrapper leaf cousin grown on the same plant.
These leaves are much larger than they look in the picture. It's just that the hands are fanned out, so it creates the illusion of smaller bundles. These leaves arrive tied in traditional hands and should be processed just like all tobacco leaf binders. It is grown from the Habano 2000 seed. Just keep in mind that shade grown wrapper tobacco is usually much more fragile than sun grown wrapper tobacco (think Maduros and Oscuros) and requires a bit of finesse.
"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.

These binder leaves are a joy to work with. They come flattened out and ready to roll. I place them in a moist towel to get them ready for bunching. The smell is heavenly. Most of the leaves could be used as wrappers, the quality is that good.
