Cigars:
Smoking cigars can be a relaxing event. On the other hand, selecting the perfect
cigar for the enjoyment on the patio or deck can be a bit more daunting. There are
literally thousands of different types of cigars in the world. They come in different
colors, shapes, sizes, and flavors. Let’s start with the basics so that your shopping
experience can be as enjoyable as smoking a cigar.
A cigar is basically tobacco leaves rolled up into a round shape. Cigars can be
rolled by machines or by hand rolling. Machine made cigars usually have bits of
ground up tobacco, kind of like a cigarette, inside and a tobacco leaf wrapped around
it to hold it all together. Hand made cigars are a different story. The leaves are
whole tobacco, not ground, and each part of the cigar is whole tobacco leaves. Cigars
are made up of 3 parts: filler, wrapper, and binder. Each part does exactly
what it says. The filler is the inner most section of the cigar, the binder is a
leaf that hold the inside of the cigar from unwinding, and the wrapper is the outer
most part that keeps everything on the inside together.

task. Before I get into the school of thought on selecting wine and tasting etiquette,
I’ll let you in on the true secret… Great wines come from with in.
If you like it, it’s a great wine! Wines don’t have to be expensive to be enjoyed. The true reason
there are so many wines offered in the world is everyone has a different taste.
It is okay to find a wine you don’t like, but you are sure to find one you do. Keep
trying.
Wine of course starts with tasting. The true pleasure of enjoying wine actually
starts when you pour it into a glass. Oxygen is an important player in how the tastes and how it can go bad. More on that in a moment... more on wine 101
