Q. What is meant by "toothy", especially in reference to a cigar's wrapper?
- C. Bilek
A. "Toothy," as opposed to "
toothsome," which means tasty, or flavorful, refers to a leaf that is more coarse in texture; often used when referring to
Maduro and
Cameroon wrappers, which are naturally "toothier."
