The outer wrapper must be made of reconstituted tobacco and must cover the cigar in full, including where appropriate the filter, but not (in the case of cigars with a mouthpiece) the mouthpiece. If the filler is held together with a binder, the binder may be made of a material other than tobacco or reconstituted tobacco. [F1Each cigar must have a unit weight (excluding the weight of any filter or mouthpiece) of not less than 2.3 grams and not more than 10 grams.] The circumference over at least one third of the length of the cigar must not be less than 34 mm. A cigar containing only substances other than tobacco does not fall within this description.U.K.
