    Quoted from the article: "The wrappers on these four cigars look like they were sun-grown."

    How does a wrapper "look" sun-grown?
    Texture. Wrappers grown under shade are smoother to the touch.

    A little known fact for you gents, the PA Broadleaf maduro undergoes a different curing process which is one of the primary reasons it has such a unique taste. In curing, fires are lit in the barnes to help regulate the humidity. In most parts of the world they burn wood but in PA they burn hickory. Next time you smoke a PA broadleaf maddy, look for the that signature taste.

    That is an interesting tidbit of information. I am a big fan of the PA broadleaf so maybe this is just one more reason why.
