Not all Tobacco is Created Equally
What are the differences between Cigars and cigarettes?
Actually there are a few key differences – the type of wrapper, the preparation of the tobacco, and the methods of how they’re produced:
Premium Cigars
- Made entirely by hand
- Wrapped in whole tobacco leaf
- Contains a 100% leaf tobacco binder
- Contains only natural filler tobaccos that are fermented and aged
Machine Made Cigars
- Made on high speed rolling machines
- May use a homogenized wrapper
- Consists of chopped tobaccos that may include stems and other leaf scraps
Cigarettes
- Made in bulk by machines
- Made from cheaper, unfermented tobaccos and chemical additives
- Rolled in paper that’s also chemically enhanced
