Manufacturing Cigars
Quality cigars are still hand-made. An experienced cigar-roller can produce hundreds of very good, nearly identical, cigars per day. Good cigars, or even great cigars begin in the field with the tobacco. Quality seed and properly cared for tobacco plants is where premium cigars really start.
Hand rolled Cigars
|
Growing background
One of the more fascinating things about cigar making is that its basic art of construction has not changed in well over one hundred years. That is why a hand-rolled cigar is the perfect complement for those of us who appreciate the artistry of hand craftsmanship. Each geographic area in which tobacco seeds are planted and grown will give the resulting leaf a very unique and distinct characteristic.
Very few areas in the world have the perfect combination of soil, temperature and rainfall to produce a tobacco crop worthy of making a high-grade cigar. Most of the prime growing regions are located in the Caribbean or in the nearly identical latitudinal regions of Mexico and Central America. In the Dominican Republic, which produces the majority of the world?s premium cigars today, there are just two fertile valleys for tobacco, the Real, which was named by Columbus and means ?Royal? in Spanish and the Cibao. These valleys, which posses a variety of soil textures, yield two of the most luxurious, long leaf filler tobaccos ever rolled into a cigar.
