Rosado wrappers

[dicko]

My personal experience is that wrappers make a big difference to the flavour of a cigar. I like all shades but if I had to pick one I would choose rosado. I think they look great and find they can add a nice cedar and leather element to a cigar.

 

Does anyone have any thoughts on rosado wrappers? Do you like them? I think you can see a reddish hue to both lighter or darker wrappers and for me they often signal quality flavours.

 

Would love to hear some of your thoughts.

 

Cheers

For me, it depends on the marca. Rosado wrappers with a nice sheen are preferred, in fact I consider almost a prerequisite for me, for Partagas and Romeo y Julieta.

I'm exactly like @IanMcLean68, I prefer rosado wrappers on Partagas and Romeo y Julieta. I would think more so on Romeo y Julieta as I find they accentuate the 'fruity' flavours within that marca.

Love rosado wrappers. I remember a cab of HdM DC with rosado wrappers... they were amazing ?

I always wanted to ask, can someone show me the difference between a normal wrapper and rosado wrapper, Prez always mentioned that you need to hunt for them but I never can tell what he actually means.

Rob from time to time will mention in the 24/24 that a cigar has a rosado wrapper. Of course, they are primarily brown but they have a red or orange tint/hue to them. As opposed to a yellow or grey or black hue.

Any chance of some photos to show the difference?

I always thought the 24:24 photos were not actually photos of the sticks we were going to receive so never looked too closely.

Ok so first two I would say are rosado wrappers (one is an r&j Cazadores which is often cited as being good with a red wrapper. One is a Fuente Rosado Sungrown.) The third is a PL picadores which i think has a grey/brown wrapper..the 4th a cohiba which has a colarado claro golden type wrapper.

this box of R&J Tres Petit Coronas  were the reddest rosado I've ever seen,   the picture doesn't really do it justice, they were glowing, like afternoon sun blazing onto a rusty shed.

You'll know the rosado wrapper color when you see it person.
