The Candela (aka Double Claro) wrapper is known for its green color and its mild flavor. To produce a Candela wrapper, the tobacco leaves are harvested and dried quickly before the plant has fully matured. This process locks in the plants natural chlorophyll content and gives the Candela wrapper its green color.HabanoThe wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.Habano wrapper leaf is Cuban-seed tobacco that is grown and cultivated in the traditional Cuban way.MaduroThe wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.Featuring the darkest color found in cigar wrappers, maduro leaves are dark brown to almost black in color, and come from the primings furthest up on the plant.
