Medusa

So how hard was it to roll a culebra? How many tries?

[Marc L]

My first one was without a mold. I was aiming for the DE Medusa look and it worked. It had a looser binding then what is normal. My first molded one did not work because of over filling. This one is with a mold. The other consideration is braiding while it is still wet.

What has Candela, Criollo 98 and Jalapa wrappers. 1) San Vicente ligero/Corojo 99 viso/T-13 with PA/San Andreas Binders? And 2) Criollo 98 Viso/Condega Viso with a Vuelta Abajo binder? And 3) Cibao Vuelta Abajo Ligero/Condega Viso/Cibao Corojo Viso with a mata fina binder?
That's easy. Medusa.
The real question is, which wrappers wrap which filler combos?

[josh lucky 13]

I think it's cool wonder if you did same filler with different wrappers to see how they are different

[Marc L]

Usually the wrapper is enough to make a difference.
Usually changing the binder is enough to make the difference.
Changing any one component can make or brake it.
There will always be a dominant leaf.
Sometimes they don't play together well and sometimes they can create a certain kind of distinctness together.
