Machine Made Cigars

Cigars can be categorised into two main types depending on their manufacturing process - the traditional hand made cigars and the more modern machine made cigars.

Both hand made and machine made cigars consist of three parts:

• The Filler: Made up of bunched up leaves, it makes up the majority of the cigar and usually is a mixture of different tobaccos collectively called a blend.
• The Binder: Used to hold the filler, it is either made of a single course tobacco leaf in hand made cigars or HTL (homogenised tobacco leaf) normally associated with the production of machine made cigars.
• The Wrapper: Being the outer most layer and consisting of a single tobacco leaf, applying the wrapper is the final step in the cigar assembly process. The wrapper contributes approximately 40% to the cigar’s overall flavour and aroma.
