Cuban Custom Roll

[rascal]

They are a plenty in LCDH in Cuba. You get the odd visiting one outside. But since you are in the USA I would get in contact with Johnny-o there is some doubt around them but the ones I have had are lovely

Sounds a great idea to me! Wonder what the minimum order would be, I guess the main problem would be getting a general consensus/agreement from everyone on a vitola and blend?

[cigarmo]

Did someone mention pie?

[Sligub]

Also If you go to Havavna some of the LCDH have rollers for custom cubans

[ValeTudoGuy]

What's the chances of us all clubbing resources and getting an annual batch of custom rolled UKCF sticks? Or is that just pie in the sky thinking?

[Deano]

Usual back-street sources! I wonder if they'll be a roller around in April, I will ask around via Jimmy at H&F and see if we can get one on the 26th (but obviously very doubtful)

[PeeJay]

That is a very good question, Robert?

If we don't get an answer I'll let you know next week.

[cigarmo]

Do 1 James street not make them for you, what's the blending room for?

[PeeJay]

I know at the Big Smoke last year they had a guest roller who was hand rolling them for a fiver each

Cigars that is, not the punters

This is a subject I know next to nothing about. I am aware they are made. I just don't know very much about them. Does a specific shop(s) contract out to have them made? Are They widely available there? Is there a price premium over the regular lines? I know from time to time Cuba will send a roller around to different shops to do demonstration rolls. I was under the impression that being at one of these events was the only way you could get a custom rolled. I have no idea why I have this impression as I have never been told such. It was my understanding that when the Davidoff/Dunhill contract ended Habanos (Cubatabaco) no longer did contract work for any other company or shop. Any information on this subject would be appreciated.
