\"Parts<\/a>

Parts of a cigar<\/p><\/div>\n

Tuck<\/strong>: The \u00abopen\u00bb part of a cigar which you light to smoke.<\/p>\n

Head<\/strong>: If we hold the cigar with the head downwards, the head is the upper third.<\/p>\n

Caliber<\/strong>: Refers to the thickness of a cigar or the ring of the cigar.<\/p>\n

Barril<\/strong>: The barril itself is a cigar, comprised of three parts: head, body and foot.<\/p>\n

Wrapper<\/strong>: The wrapper is the outer sheet of a cigar, it is the part we see. The wrapper influences the aesthetics of a cigar so that it has a good finish.<\/p>\n

Binder<\/strong>: The binder is the first sheet that surrounds the filler. It is located between the wrapper and the filler.<\/p>\n

Body<\/strong>: If we hold the cigar with the head downwards, the body is the third in the middle.<\/p>\n

Cap<\/strong>: The cap is the rounded portion where you would cut the cigar to smoke it.<\/p>\n

Foot<\/strong>: If we hold the cigar with the head downwards, the foot is the lower third.<\/p>\n

Filler<\/strong>: The inner and most important part of the cigar. From the mix of leaves that form the filler is what depends the flavor and aroma of the cigar.<\/p>\n
