Like the description states they are smaller leaves, but they can be used for wrapper or binder in 44rg quite easily.
An interesting aroma, nutty but light on the palate.

Little surprised to see this is gone already given the amount that was on the site! Personally, I think it was great value for the money (at $18/lb). My examples were delicate, thin leaves. Smallish. Sorta cigarette like visual, aroma and flavor cues. Sometimes with a strong “banana” aroma. I like to stack up a line to make it a binder. Seems a good filler too. Came off very sweet, almost cloying to me. Seemed to play well with most other tobacco I’ve tried it with. Hopefully there will be a little more soon but who knows. Also … I kind of enjoyed reading the unusually florid description… and, every time I reach for the bag, Enya starts playing in my mind (chuckles). Gonna have to try the newer viso/ligero style batch…

Smaller in size and paper thin leaf as advertised. Easy to manipulate and remove the stems. I mixed 8% ratioof Orinico in a cigarette blend because I don’t smoke cigars and got a sample from WLT to try. It doesn’t have any particular aroma or taste when smoked, adds a bit of dryness to the smoke but the nicotine content if off the chart. The leaf being neutral in taste and thin it’s ideal to add to a blend to help burn hotter and boost the nicotine.
