What is Binder?
The binder is the tobacco leaf used to hold the filler leaves together in a cigar. It sits between the filler and the outer wrapper, playing a crucial role in the cigar's construction. The binder leaf needs to be strong enough to keep the filler intact while providing a smooth, even burn. It also contributes subtly to the flavor profile of the cigar, though it is typically overshadowed by the wrapper and filler in terms of taste. High-quality binders are essential for producing cigars that burn consistently and maintain their shape, making it an important component in the cigar-making process.
