But the real Sumatra wrapper is my all time favourite, tho hard as hell to find now.
That Sumatra tobacco,esp wrapper...produces a fine spiciness and sweetness that,to me,is unmatched.
Can almost see and taste that one you're smoking.
Agreed. Most cigars with Sumatra wrappers use Ecuadoran-grown leaves. They're good, but they lack a flavor component found in Indonesian-grown tobaccos. I've found that same component in some Philippine cigars as well, so it seems to be something in the air, water, soil, etc. of that part of the world.

Luckily the leaves I roll with are Indonesian-grown.

Romeo y Julieta Cedro deluxe is rolled with an Indonesian-grown Sumatra wrapper, and if I couldn't roll one that tasted as good, I'd buy a lot of them.
