| A '''cigar''' is a tightly rolled bundle of dried and fermented [[tobacco]] made by [[humans]] which is ignited so that its smoke may be drawn into the smoker's mouth. The English ''cigar'' comes from the Spanish ''cigarro'', which in turn derives from the Mayan word for tobacco, ''siyar''. Cigar tobacco was once grown in significant quantities in Brazil, Cameroon, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Honduras, Indonesia, [[Mexico]], Nicaragua, the Philippines, and the [[United States]]. Cigars from [[Cuba]] were particularly famous.
