Definition:
Cigars are rolled bundles of dried and cured tobacco leaves that vary widely in size and shape, from cigarette-like cigarillos to bulging "Churchills" or "Gordos" which can measure up to 20 centimetres. Relatively low-priced Cigarillos compete in some markets with traditional cigarettes for quick nicotine-rushes while the bigger variants which take longer to smoke are a luxury item that are mostly consumed in a more leisurely way at home or on special occasions. Originating in the Americas, cigar tobacco today is still grown mostly in Central America and the Caribbean, as well as the United States, the Philippines and Indonesia. The global cigar industry is dominated by Imperial Brand's subsidiary Altadis and the Scandinavian Tobacco Group.
