What is a shaggy foot cigar, and why do some cigars have them? – Cigar 101

The extra binder and filler tobacco that extends beyond the wrapper of your cigar – no, the roller didn’t forget to finish it. It’s made that way on purpose, and it’s called a shaggy foot. (There’s also a version called a brush foot.) We got a question about it from Paul in Upper Darby, PA, who noticed the shaggy foot when he took the paper sleeve off a Tabak Especial. So how do cigar makers roll them to leave that rustic look at the end? And more importantly, why? Short answer: flavor. Long answer, watch this video.
