Cigar manufacturers offer tours of their factories that are very enlightening and a great experience for a cigar aficionado. You may have an idea of how complicated making a cigar by hand is, but experiencing it first hand is an eye opener. So why not include a visit to a cigar factory on your next vacation? Or perhaps visit a cigar festival such as ProCigar in the Dominican Republic? You will come back with an even bigger appreciation of that stogie you’re holding in your hand.
