Imagine a cigar made from
the chopped-up short filler
on the left.
You can just see how the
criss-cross, jack-straw leaves
will break up the draught of
air and prevent the cigar
from drawing evenly. That's
the kind of cigar you have to
keep lighting up when you
smoke it.
Now look at a long-leaf filler cigar.
You know it will draw evenly
if the cigar is hand-made. When
the leaves are laid together as they
are in the OWL, you get a full, even
draught of air with every puff.
Long-leaf filler is one requisite of
a good cigar, whether it costs 5
