Re: Sweet and/or Sweetened Tip smokes?
From what I've heard, cigars with sweetened caps are usually dipped in some solution of water, gum arabic, and an artificial sweetener, be it saccharin, Sucralose, or NutraSweet, as sugar would attract too many insects in shipping and storage.
It wouldn't be too hard to make your own sweetener solutions and apply them to the cap of any cigar you wanted.
