Candela Leaf is an incredibly rare tobacco leaf, known primarily for its looks! The green color of this leaf is obtained by quickly harvesting, and speed-drying the crop at a high temperature.
The verdant green hue of this tobacco is most commonly associated with its mild, leafy, almost floral taste and sweet, grassy aroma. This wrapper is truly unique in all aspects.
This high temperature, high speed drying process causes the chlorophyll to be trapped in the leaf, giving it the jade color which it is known for. Commonly used on pre-embargo cigars, this leaf is now only commonly found on mass produced machine-made cigars, and some few select high end boutique cigars.
"Hey to the amazing staff at Leafonly
I wanted to make the extra effort to thank you all for the best customer service I've ever received when ordering online.
Even though im situated on this barren rock in the middle of the Atlantic you guys managed to have the package here in under a week (weekend included), that is unheard of. Furthermore the contents look and smell amazing at first sight.
Wishing the best & a thousand thanks
