How Much Do You Really Know About Cigars?

Cigars have been enjoyed by everyone from jungle guerrillas to Wall Street moguls. Thicker, longer, and often pricier than cigarettes, cigars have a rich history that stretches back to the arrival of Europeans in the Americas. Over the years, they’ve been tied to revolutions, trade bans, and smuggling—and like coffee or chocolate, they remain a beloved luxury from the tropics.

But cigars are also misunderstood. Are they only for the rich? Are they any safer than cigarettes? And is Cuba the only place that makes good ones?

There’s something undeniably classy about cigars—something cigarettes just don’t have. Famous fans include presidents, CEOs, and celebrities. Even political rivals like JFK and Fidel Castro shared a love of cigars. Churchill loved them so much, he has a whole style named after him. And yes, there are entire magazines dedicated to cigars and how to enjoy them.
