Cigar rollers

[puff o'wind]

Just looking for Alec the roller on FB (couldn't find him) and the usual search drift got me thinking...if a roller makes 300 a day do they absorb much nicotene? They're handling the leaf all day, they must perspire so my guess is they do effectively spend all day smoking!

No idea of the answer to the question but I think he's under Alejandro rather than Alex Glez on FB but don't quote me on that as I don't use it!

get a group buy sorted if you do contact him

[simwells]

He's easy to contact but I don't think there's any possible way of getting CRs out of the country en masse!

[PeeJay]

I'm sure I read that visitors are encouraged not to dwell too long in factory rooms where the leaf is stored and/or fermented so I guess the answer is yes, he must absorb a lot.

He is literally addicted to his work.

I'll drop you a PM, thought that Cuba had a limit of 50 unbanded per person. But that might just be heresay

Sounds fun

He’s Alejandro Glez on FB. Responds to messages- but expect to meet him first at the Comodoro in order to establish a relationship.

Thanks I've found him. I wasn't really after contacting him, just seeing who he is and trying to understand something about what he does. My pickets are box split deep, not meet the roller deep.

If you ever got Cuba David you wouldn't be struggling to pick up plenty of customs at what they charge!

There's a bit of info here about him if you're interested

IF you can find them, at 22.1 CuC they're certainly not expensive by our standards!

Thanks
