What is Barrel?

In cigar terminology, a barrel refers to the cylindrical body of the cigar, excluding the head and the foot. The barrel is the part of the cigar that is smoked and typically contains the filler and binder tobaccos wrapped by the outer wrapper leaf. A well-constructed barrel is essential for ensuring an even burn and smooth draw throughout the smoking experience. The construction quality of the barrel can also impact the flavor development as the cigar is smoked, making it a critical element in the overall quality of the cigar.
