Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

A cigar is a tightly rolled bundle of dried and fermented tobacco that is ignited so that its smoke may be drawn into the mouth. Cigar tobacco is grown in significant quantities in Brazil, Cameroon, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Honduras, Indonesia, Mexico, Nicaragua, Sumatra, Philippines, and the Eastern United States.

Explorer Christopher Columbus is generally credited with the introduction of tobacco to Europe. Two of Columbus's crewmen during his 1492 journey, Rodrigo de Jerez and Luis de Torres, are said to have encountered tobacco for the first time on the island of San Salvador in the Bahamas, when natives presented them with dry leaves that spread a peculiar fragrance. Tobacco was widely diffused among all of the islands of the Caribbean and therefore they again encountered it in Cuba, where Columbus and his men had settled.

Around 1592, the Spanish galleon San Clemente brought 50 kilograms (110&_160;lb) of tobacco seed to the Philippines over the Acapulco-Manila trade route. The seed was then distributed among the Roman Catholic missions, where the clerics found excellent climates and soils for growing high-quality tobacco on Philippine soil.

In the 19th century, cigar smoking was common, while cigarettes were still comparatively rare. The cigar business was an important industry, and factories employed many people before mechanized manufacturing of cigars became practical. Many modern cigars, as a matter of prestige and quality, are still rolled by hand, most especially in Central America and Cuba some boxes bear the phrase totalmente a mano (totally by hand) or hecho a mano (made by hand).

15. A Key To Success
September 25, 2009

Emulating successful people is one key to success. Be careful, though, if you ask them for advice. Often, people don't really know why they succeed, but they will give you as many explanations as you want anyhow. One night on the news, I saw a 100-year-old man explain that smoking a big cigar every day was one of the secrets of his longevity. It might be nice to know why he has lived so long, but I'm pretty sure we won't learn by asking him.

The big boss – be he a mafia don, drug lord, or your plain, run-of-the-mill CEO – is sporting a large cigar, and is smoking it unaffectedly.

22. The Advent of the E-Cigarette Part 2
September 02, 2009

At the "far end" of the e-cigarette, most models have incorporated an LED lighting mechanism that mimics the glow emitted by an actual tobacco cigarette or cigar when taking a puff. A clever addition that does more than just add a bit of aesthetic glitz to e-cigarette usage: as most smokers will acknowledge, a real addict becomes obsessed by almost all the aspects of the smoking process, and thus the inclusion of this detail in the e-cigarette design helps round out the simulation experience, further enticing smokers to pick up an e-cigarette instead of their old-faithful. The largest compone... (read more)

August 27, 2009

If you own a business, you may be surprised at how much lost productivity due to smoking is costing your company.
