The definition of a cigar is a rolled bundle of dried and fermented tobacco leaves made to be smoked. They are produced in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and flavors. As per the latest cigars, almost all cigars are made up of three basic components: the filler, the binder leaf which holds the filler together, and a wrapper leaf, which is often the best leaf used. Modern cigars have a band printed with the cigar manufacturer’s logo and showing Limited Edition bands displaying the year of production.
Little Cigars, which are sometimes called small cigars or miniatures in the United Kingdom and differ greatly from regular cigars. They weigh less than cigars and cigarillos but more importantly, they are almost same as cigarettes in size, shape, packaging, and filters. Sales of little cigars almost stopped in the U.S. from 70’s in response to the public cigarette health act, which banned the broadcast of cigarette advertisements and required stronger health warnings on cigarette packs. Cigars were exempt from the ban, and perhaps more importantly, were taxed at a far lower rate than cigarettes. Little cigars are sometimes called “cigarettes in disguise” and there were many unsuccessful attempts had been made to reclassify them as cigarettes. In the United States, it became very popular and sales of these cigars reached a sky high in between 2004 to 2006, which is fuelled due to favorable taxation. In some states in the United States, these cigars have successfully been taxed at the rate of cigarettes, such as Illinois, as well as multiple other states. This has caused yet another problem to the administration and benefit for the manufacturers.
