Cigar Basics
Anatomy of a Cigar
Cigar can be divided to several functional parts both in its length and in depth.
Cigar Colors
The color of a cigar wrapper is one of the most important characteristics. It depends on the leaves that were used for rolling and on curing methods. Each type of wrapper gives a unique taste and flavor to a cigar.
Cigar Shapes
In cigars, as in real life, there's much ado about size. But does it really make a difference? Should you expect a thick and intimidating nine-incher to be better than a modest four-and-a-half?
