Pinch Test
An easy way to check the construction
of your cigar is to lightly pinch the cigar between
your thumb and index finger. It should feel firm,
but not too hard.
Plug
An obstruction in the cigar, caused
by tightness in the rolling, that makes drawing difficult.
Plume
A white or light grayish-green dusting
on a cigar's wrapper, caused by the crystallization
of tobacco oils. Not mold, it is harmless and can
be brushed off. Also called bloom, it occurs most
often in cigars kept in a humidor quite some time.
Premium Cigar
Any high-grade cigar mader by hand
of 100% tobacco with long leaf filler.
