Hello once again and welcome back to yet another episode of that old literate standby, the Puff Glossary. This series is designed to help keep you up to date on the latest lingo and terminology used in the smoking (and tobacco) world, as well as the old timers lingo. So if you want to make your verbal assault even more powerful, or just want to learn a little more about that favorite of subjects – namely cigars – then click on the Full Story link and climb on inside! Class is in session…
If you are a fan of this series, then you are familiar with the format. I toss up some words and then throw in some definitions. Starting with the last issue, I realized that I had covered just about every cigar and pipe tobacco related term I could think of. How could I continue the series if there were no more words to define?
I had two options: make words up, or go with a different format. I opted for the different format. The last article talked about the different types of tobacco and the ways we can enjoy them. These ranged from traditional cigarettes and cigars, to things like chew or chaw, the odd Indian Beedi, and dissolvable tobacco orbs.
This article will pick up where we left off. Although I will try to avoid the obvious like cigar and cigarillo, I may add them if time permits just to be consistent.
But enough jibba-jabba! Let the learning begin!
