Very thankful for all the valuable info I've gotten from the forums. Just getting back into the game and trying to learn some of the Cigar lingo. My question is about "Tooth." What does it mean? I see and hear it being used, but not quite sure what its referring to. Please enlighten me. Thanks

    little bumps on the wrapper of the cigar.

    Ok, I see. Is this good or bad, or really makes no difference?

    it does and doesnt make a difference. it tells you about the wrapper. it may tell you how it tastes. it may show you how its been fermented. it does not mean a cigar is good or bad.
