Flojo Africa Viso

[FmGrowit]

Another unusual leaf and the only place on the internet it's available is HERE

Grown in Paraguay, this cigar filler is somewhat rare. An extraordinarily long leaf gives it its name...flojo or "flagging" leaf. This leaf is a dark reddish brown. The flavor is nutty, chocolate and coffee with notes of cinnamon. The smoke is thick, medium bodied, and smooth. This is a flavorful tobacco with a pleasant aroma with hints of cherry and currents.

Jeez! You weren't kidding when you said long leaf. Took one leaf, stemmed and divided it, rolled it with only a binder. One leaf rolled a 6" by 50 ring cigar lol. This leaf must be 2 feet long and it's already frog legged. Taste: mild is the first thing that comes to mind. It's similar to the air cured virginia I grew this year.

Just talked to a local welder from Paraguay here in Argentina. I asked him about African Flojo, but the name didn't ring a bel.
When I discribed him the leaves he said aaahhhh ... tabaco negro !!
He's gone a bring me a few kilo's on my next swing and I do hope it African flojo.
