The Word Puro w/Poll

RevSmoke · 02-20-2012, 10:56 AM

A puro is a cigar with all the constituent tobaccos coming from the same country.

Although, there are some people who call all cigars puros.

I remember an incident from the boom days. There was an individual of some monetary wealth who thought way more of himself than anybody else did. He was the expert (in his own mind) on things regarding cigars - because he could buy the more expensive cigars. He had just started smoking when it got popular, but it was amazing the faux wisdom he'd spew. Anyway, he informed everybody that all hand-made cigars were puros because they were made pure, all tobacco, no false fillers like cigar paper, etc...

Funny how he always seemed to be alienating people.
