Okay so I'm a little sad and a lot obsessive and I like to remove and paste my cigar bands in a little notebook with the date and tasting notes. What I've noticed is that Cuban bands appear to be stuck on with a more permanent glue than even the biggest NC bands which come off easily. I began to wonder if it is because Cuban cigars are meant to last a long time or its just a coincidence.

Historically it was a glue made from flour and water I believe. I find that it varies from brand to brand, Ive noticed that RyJ's and Upmanns Ive smoked peel off easy, with the hardest to peel being Cohiba.

No idea why it is

That could simply be that the bands are smaller so its easier to get it on the wrapper.Originally posted by sheppsea View PostI have noticed that as well, I also find that the glue with Cubans cigars quite often stick the band to the wrapper as well

Iwonder what type of glue the rollers use when rolling the cigars
seen on many video's they dip their finger in a small pot containing the glue
over here it's sold more of a liquid form.
