Cigar Construction
Cigar construction refers to the process of making cigars, which involves selecting and blending different types of tobacco leaves. The main components of a cigar are the wrapper, binder, and filler. The wrapper is the outermost leaf, providing flavor and appearance, while the binder holds the filler leaves together.
The filler consists of a blend of tobacco leaves that contribute to the cigar's overall taste and strength. Proper construction is essential for an even burn and draw, ensuring a satisfying smoking experience. Skilled artisans, known as torcedores, hand-roll many premium cigars, emphasizing quality and craftsmanship.
