Cohiba

Many casual smokers are shocked to realize how much work goes into making a single smokeable cigar. This is a simple explanation for a complicated process with many variables, but essentially, this is how it works: It starts with the tobacco fields of Nicaragua, Honduras, the Dominican Republic and, of course, Cuba. The tobacco is harvested and cured. A cigar has three parts that all come together in the hand-rolling process: filler, binder and wrapper. The filler is the “bunched” tobacco inside the cigar. The filler can either be “short” or “long,” depending on the quality of the cigar.
