Christopher Columbus can be very much among the first name to be taken. There’s more than just giving the great man the credit of discovering America. But mind it people, among the first names but not exactly the first name. He is definitely not the cigar inventor if you are looking for it. There are more names to be taken if you are asking who started with the smoking of tobacco. Well, it can be the Caribbean Islands inhabitants who started it and also the ones in Mesoamerica and it goes as old as 900 A.D., as suggested by the archeologists. You may find these from the sites but rarely from the Cigare Lounge Bruxelles. There is yet another discovery of a ceramic vessel which was hidden in a Mayan ruin of building in Guatemala which was decorated with a man smoking cigar. Sadly, the man is deceased definitely and cannot hence give the answer to this.

To the ones who don’t smoke, the cigar band can very much be like musicians’ group who are together to make songs about smoking and in a basement with the best lyrics. But the fact is that cigar band is an important part of cigar and it has its own history and a lot to know of. This band or ring rather it can be called, is a piece of paper that is circular and is wrapped around a lot of cigar heads. It must have been invented by Catherine the Great or the Spanish nobles somewhere between the late 1700s to the early 1800s. The nobles though fond of cigars, weren’t actually fond of the stains that it left on their gloves and hence the band. You can see it in almost every cigar brand in Cigar Lounge Brussels. The bands can very much prevent the cigars from staining. It can also be that it was to keep the wrapper bound to the filler and thus keeping the cigar together. There are a lot of other tales and legends which of course, you can get to know with more research.
