Where Do Your Cigars Come From?

There is something in the male psyche that makes men feel tough whenever they chew a wrap of cigar. Cigars have tended to be featured in films as part of the standard gear for the alpha male or even the "cool female". Cigars are nothing but rolled tobacco, and so it is a wonder how it can do what it does to people.

Cigar smoking is more than just a habit. To those who love it, it is a lifestyle. The average enthusiast has cigars with him at every time of the day.

Socialization is facilitated by each puff. Some enthusiasts find new friends just by talking to others about their favorites. They talk about the finest cigar brands and where they get them.

Brazil as well as Cuba are famous for the quality of their cigar materials. There are also high-quality varieties from Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Indonesia and the Philippines. These products make their way to America through less strict rules than those imposed on cigarettes; they are exempt from many of the distribution regulations implemented on the sales of cigarettes and are not required to mention health risks.

These items are sold as self-serve items in local convenience stores, pharmacies and grocery stores, as well as in a few restaurants, hotel shops, vending machines, and online. More valuable brands' cigars can be purchased from tobacco stores. High-grade products may be obtained from high-class stores and vendors.

The most expensive cigars are those manufactured by Altadis, which is the largest cigar producer in the world. This company ships cigars to the American continent as well as the Latin states. Cigars are not all the brand makes.

Swedish Match, one more famous maker, is only trumped by Altadis when it comes to how big the company is. You can find Swedish Match production centers from Germany to North America. Snuff as well as pipe tobacco is offered by the company.

Cigar lovers also admit to being extremely fond of the Fuente cigars. Known for their Arturo Fuente cigars, the family has been making sticks for a century now. And almost a century later, it released the Fuente Fuente OpusX cigar, which was later considered the first quality wrapper grown in the Dominican Republic.

Meanwhile, the oldest cigar manufacturer from the same Latin American country is the León family. They began business way back 1905. Their La Aurora is very well known in the cigar-smoking community.

There is no indication that cigars will ever go out of style. Many now understand that a cigar is a valuable product, due to the attention given to them. Many famous personalities have smoked cigars even before you, and you may well share something in common with them each time you light up.
