 New! Improved!

Before lighting a cigar, the smoker usually had to cut, puncture, or bite off its sealed end so when he put it in his mouth, he could draw smoke through it. Several manufacturers offered a cigar that was ready split or pierced—an added convenience that, in the case of Peg Top and Stonewall Jackson, may have been what made their cigars best sellers for decades.
