Instruction
1
Remove tobacco leaf blades and veins, humidify dry tobacco leaves, stand them in a fairly humid environment or moistened with water. Twist the strands 3-5 tobacco leaf for the filling, put the harnesses on the binder leaf and wrap it in bundles, the same movement as you roll the dough. The density of the filling should be uniform throughout its length.
2
Place this material in a special mold (two wooden boards with semicircular grooves on the surface, put one billet, the other is available above), to give the cigar a desired form and leave on for at least half an hour. The diameter of the cigar varies from 10 to 20 mm. make Sure that the stuffing is not too tight or too loosely twisted, as this will depend on the speed of combustion of the cigar, its thrust, and hence the sensations of Smoking (cigar factories hand-rolled after passing through the press, checking for traction and the comfort of Smoking).
3
Select the tobacco sheet to the cover sheet: a perfectly smooth and thin, without damage, and smooth coloring. Put the coating tobacco sheet upside down, cut from a broad ribbon, place it on the workpiece and spiral wrap from one end to the other with uniform pressure. The tension of the cover sheet in the process of wrapping should be perfectly uniform.
4
Make a "cap" cigars: cut out the cover sheet fragment in the flag, they wrap the lower end of the cigar to secure the wrapper sheet. Cut out the cover sheet a small circle to attach to the head of the cigar. Use vegetable glue without taste and smell (in Cuba use gum tragacanth).
5
Cut the cigar to the desired length from the open edge using a hand guillotine (classic straight-shaped cigar is from 10 to 22 cm in length). Place made so cigars in a drying Cabinet (humidity 40%) for two weeks.
