How Cigars are Important to the Smokers

Why the cigars are associated with class?

It can be that you have seen in the TV shows, movies or even on the cover of a magazine- a model, an incredible hunk sporting a fine taste of clothes and essentially with that look as he has a burning cigar in his mouth. Even in the movies (we mean the era of those gangster movies) we can see the main person or the protagonist or the antagonist sporting a big cigar and taking puffs from it in an unaffected manner. And the person seems to like it- the large wad of tight leaves and the smoke. But why is the person seem to be so much at ease and looks as someone eminent? Why the cigars are associated often with business and wealth? You must have asked these to you.

 

Cigares

The best types of cigares:

Well, it can be said that a cigar is all but a rolled-up heap of fermented and dried tobacco with the one end to be lit with fire and the other has an opening with which the smoke will be able to enter the mouth of the user and provide him the flavor. The tobacco for cigar is really special and is known to be very much deeper and richer than the tobacco which is used for the cigarettes. And this tobacco is grown in the tropical places, the countries like Cuba, Honduras, Brazil and Mexico. The Cuban variety are particularly considered to be the best of these cigars and while there are experts who say otherwise that Honduran and Nicaraguan cigars are enough to give the Cuban ones a strict competition. These cigars sometime back were very much expensive and also were confined to the banquets usually where there were special gatherings for the smokers. And these gatherings were really important since even some of the political personalities used to be there and discuss the prominent issues as they used to smoke. And then the US had a trade embargo imposed on Cuba back in the 20^th century. With this the price of these cigars went further up and their use was limited only to them who would afford these.

A drop in the steep price of the Bruxelles:

It was in the mid-2005, there was a change. The prices of the cigars suddenly declined and this enabled a number of smokers and the beginners as well, to get the chance to enjoy the taste of these cigars. Now, what is there to enjoy these cigars? The aficionados believe that the cigars have less of the smoky taste which the cigarettes provide and there are flavors as well like chocolate, whiskey and even the red wine!

 

Cigar Brussels

Knowing a little of how these are made:

As a smoker it may have occurred to you to know how these Cigar Brussels are made. The tobacco leaves are first selected with care and post they are harvested and then they are aged which is caused with a combination of shade and heat. The water and sugar content of the leaves get reduced in this manner and also there are no chances of the leaves to get rot. After they are dried there is a slow fermentation process and finally it gives way to the cigars that we smoke.
