What's the difference between cigars and cigarettes?

1, different requirements for tobacco leaves

Cigarettes have relatively low requirements for tobacco leaves. When planting plants, as long as the soil is fertile and not disturbed by pests, the grown tobacco leaves can be used to produce cigarettes. However, this tobacco plant often uses fertilizers, pesticides, etc. to assist plant growth.

Cigars have relatively high requirements for tobacco leaves, and soil ploughing, planting and pest control are not allowed to involve chemical components. For example, pest control, like ordinary tobacco leaves being invaded by pests, the first thing to do is to fight pesticides, or fight pesticides before pests invade. The tobacco leaves needed for rolling cigars can only be protected against pests by experience and physical measures such as digging, sowing, harvesting, air drying and alcoholization.

2, the production process is different.

In cigarette production, the tobacco needed for cigarettes is to crush tobacco leaves and then add some chemical components (such as essence and combustion improver). ), and finally mass-produced by machinery.

Cigar production (refers to all-tobacco handmade cigars), before rolling, tobacco leaves must go through air drying, fermentation, alcoholization and other processes before they can be sent to the production workshop. Tobacco leaves must be whole leaves, and different parts of cigars have different requirements for tobacco leaves. For example, if the eggplant core, eggplant cover, eggplant coat, eggplant cap and other parts belong to a plant, they correspond to the shallow leaf segment, dry leaf segment and shallow leaf segment of the plant.

3. Different suction methods

For smokers, cigarettes that don't enter the lungs after smoking are called "loading". If you just leave it in your mouth and spit it out, many people will find it boring.

Cigarettes don't enter the lungs, and more flavors of cigars are the most primitive taste of tobacco. Once it enters the lungs, it is easy to cause drunk smoking and sore throat.
