The Top Thin Cuban Cigars to Try

The Top Thin Cuban Cigars to Try

Among the large community of thick cigar-lovers, there are a handful of you aficionados that prefer to smoke something slim. Despite the popularity of thicker Cuban cigars, such as the Trinidad Vigia or the Trinidad Topes, there are numerous smokers who may prefer to smoke something quick and light. This could be because of several reasons. Perhaps, you’re smoking it between meals, or even while travelling. Whatever the reason, there are outstanding thin cigars out in the market - and to make your life easier - we’ve listed a few good stogies below.

THIN VS THICK CIGARS

The key difference between thinner and thicker cigars is the ratio of the wrapper leaf in comparison to the binder and filler. Many cigar experts believe that the wrapper contributes about 60-80% of the overall flavour of the cigar, which is quite a hefty contribution to the smoking experience. Within a thicker cigar, there is less wrapper to smoke and more binder and filler - making the taste of the wrapper a bit washed out. Furthermore, when it comes to thinner cigars, they burn a lot quicker, making it the perfect cigar to smoke for short occasions.
