What is Aroma?

Aroma refers to the scent that cigars emit, both before and during the smoking process. It is one of the key components that define a cigar’s overall profile, along with flavor and strength. The aroma of a cigar can vary widely, from sweet and floral to earthy and spicy, depending on the type of tobacco used and how it’s blended. A pleasant aroma is often a sign of a well-made cigar, and it greatly enhances the smoking experience. For aficionados, the aroma is as important as the flavor, as it contributes to the sensory enjoyment of the cigar.
