Etymology

The term 'stogy' refers to a type of cigar that originally gained popularity in the United States. The word is believed to derive from the word 'Conestoga', which relates to the Conestoga wagon, a type of covered wagon used in the 18th and 19th centuries by American settlers. It is said that these wagons were sometimes used to transport cigars, leading to the association with the cheap, larger cigars that became known as stogies. Over time, the definition evolved to signify a more generic type of cheap cigar. Stogies typically refer to cigars that are made from lower quality tobacco and are often longer and wider than other cigars. The term has since become synonymous with informal smoking culture.
