cheroots
Open-ended smokes
Cheroots are cigars with both ends cut square rather than tapered or pointed.
The shape is simpler and cheaper to produce than tapered cigars, giving cheroots a workingman's association.
The word comes from Tamil and reflects the cigar's South Asian origins: He lit a cheroot and watched the river.
