Smoking a cigar: a question of prestige?
Cigarette or roll of cigar tobacco, is it simply a matter of volume, taste or simply experimenting with a new way of smoking? Smoking a cigar while enjoying a glass of alcohol comfortably seated in your armchair is a prolonged moment of relaxation. It's another adventure that a cigarette consumed in a few minutes does not offer.

The soothing and enjoyable cigar experience
Smoking a cigar is a simple guilty pleasure that often brings the greatest comfort.
The occasional cigar brings to the body a quantity of much more consequent chemical relaxation or nicotine: that is to say 10, even 20 times more (100 to 200 mg against 10 mg).

The cigar and the cigarette are pleasant by their relaxing smoke but also by the addiction or psycho-dependency to the pleasure. Lighting a cigar is often associated with personal success: the smoker links the happy moments each time he indulges in his cigar.
In good times, the cigar is intimately linked with alcohol, glass of champagne or glass of bourbon and premium scotch.

How to choose your cigar online?
Recognize a good cigar
For connoisseurs, the rolling of the cigar is an essential criterion to consider when looking for the best cigar online. This is a crucial point for the experience of the draw, that is to say the amount of smoke inhaled and air circulating inside a cigar.
Honduras

San Cristobal
A draw that is too slow, because the cigar does not burn well, spoils the smoker's experience and can be explained by an excess of humidity (tobacco not dry enough during its elaboration, bad rolling procedure too tight).
The origin of the tobacco used (mainly black as opposed to blond for cigarettes) and the process of processing the tobacco leaves are specific to each brand. This determines the quality of so-called Premium cigars online and other good quality products.

Abnormal glow means that the cigar has defects on the wrapper leaf (delicate leaf wrapper with shades of brown). It is sometimes a sign of modest quality, faults having their respective names are known by accustomed cigar smokers:
- “racing cigar”
- “tunnel cigar”
- “cone cigar”
- “canoe cigar”.

Buttery, woody or peppery notes, aromas of spices, cocoa and cedar, a hint of leather, tasting a cigar is like experiencing a wine. The long manufacturing process begins with the fermentation of the tobacco lowering the nicotine level. Then comes the alternate stage of drying between humid air and dry atmosphere to fully reveal the scents and tastes of Cuban or Dominican tobacco.
Cigar: short or long caliber?
Another aspect of the cigar experience is determined by its length: half an hour which can extend up to two hours! This draw time greatly influences the perception of the taste of your cigar. In their design, here are the main differences between long and short cigars:
- long module made by hand with several tobacco leaves crumpled together to form the filler (the heart of the cigar),
- short module most generally made by machine, the tobacco leaves are crushed before being mixed (chopped tripe).

The caliber of the cigar, however, has little influence on the draw on the flavor of a cigar, although the long module is perceived as better by budding neophyte smokers...
