HOW TO ROLL TUTORIAL (PART 3)

Adding a Cuban-style cap to a cigar involves a skilled process known as "flagging" or "mounting" the cigar. The cigar roller takes a small piece of wrapper leaf and carefully folds it over the head of the cigar, using a chaveta (a special cigar knife) to cut it to the desired size and shape. The cap serves as a protective layer over the head of the cigar and also enhances the smoking experience by concentrating the flavors.

When making chaveta cuts for the cap, the cigar roller avoids cutting through the veins of the tobacco leaf. This is because the veins are thicker and tougher than the rest of the leaf, and cutting through them could cause the wrapper leaf to unravel. By avoiding the veins, the cigar roller ensures that the cap will adhere to the head of the cigar securely.

After adding the cap, the torcedor (cigar roller) will add a second cap, known as the "flag" or "bandera," to ensure that the wrapper leaf does not unravel during shipping or storage. The torcedor cuts the flag in the shape of a smile, which is then folded over the head of the cigar and secured with vegetable gum. The second cut is then made in the shape of a circle, creating a small opening at the head of the cigar for easy lighting.

Finally, the torcedor inspects the cigar to make sure it meets the high quality standards expected of a premium cigar. They will check the draw, the appearance of the wrapper leaf, and the aroma of the tobacco to ensure that the cigar is properly rolled and will provide a satisfying smoking experience. Only after passing this inspection will the cigar be deemed ready for packaging and sale.
