Cigars have been one of the oldest forms of smoking produce. Earlier Mayans were known to bundle tobacco in a palm or plantain leaf, ignite it and inhale the fumes via the mouth. Thus smoking has been very common since then. When Columbus came to India tobacco became part of trading merchandise.  He took it back home and introduced it to people of Spain and Portugal. The French ambassador to Portugal Jean Nicot took a liking for it and took it to his home. Thus it spread to other European countries too. The term Nicotine was in fact coined from his name. Initially most of the Cigars were manufactured in Spain. Later on people discovered that Cuba was an ideal place to grow tobacco. Similarly it gained popularity in New York and was manufactured there too. This way cigar spread its tentacles to many other countries. Now if you want to buy one, you can buy Cigar Punch Online.
