  Robusto

  The Robusto is a short Churchill size, traditionally 5 to 5.5 inches by a 50 ring gauge.
• Cigar Section
  Box-Pressed (Square)

  A box pressed cigar is a cigar that has a square shape. Originally, this shape came from the practice of packing round cigars tightly in cardboard boxes which are then compacted using a manual press. The cigars are thus pressed into each other and become a "squarish" or semi-square shape. Today, cigar makers use square shaped molds or a wooden trunk press for their box pressed cigars, achieving a more defined square section.

Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.
