The cheroot or stogie is a cylindrical cigar with both ends clipped during manufacture. Since cheroots do not taper, they are inexpensive to roll mechanically, and their low cost makes them particularly popular. Typically, stogies have a length of 3.5 to 6.5 inches, and a ring gauge of 34 to 37. (Ring gauge is a measure of diameter, scaled in 64ths of an inch. A stogie is slightly over 1/2" in diameter.)

The term stogie is often misused to refer to any cigar with a foul stench, or as slang, to a cigarette. Many stogies are made of flavored tobaccos, and given that a stogie may last a half hour, as opposed to the 2–8 minutes that a cigarette typically lasts, there can be quite a pungent and pervasive aroma produced.

The word stogie is short for Conestoga. The cigar was the smoke of choice for teamsters driving Conestoga wagons in the cigar-making Conestoga valley area around Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The word cheroot comes from French cheroute, from Tamil curuttu/churuttu/shuruttu (சுருட்டு)- roll of tobacco. This word could have been absorbed into the French language from Tamil during the 18th century, when the French were trying to stamp their presence in South India. The word could have then been absorbed into English from French. stock footage - cigar factory - cheroot - Burma - Best Shot Stock Footage
Inconsistency: The shape of a cheroot is described differently here & on the page cigar. This page describes a cheroot as cylindrical; the cigar page describes a cylindrical cigar as a parejo, except that the latter would normally have a cap at one end. A few lines later, describing the Italian cigar (toscano), which has a distinctive elongated football or double-conic shape, the cigar article calls this a cheroot with a link to this page. It states: "The typical Italian cigar ... [is] a long, tough, slim cigar thicker in the middle and tapered at the ends, with a very strong aroma. It is also known as a cheroot, which is the largest selling cigar shape in the United States." According to the Oxford Dictionary, the distinguishing characteristic of a cheroot is that it is open (i.e. cut) at both ends, whereas almost all other cigars are capped at the unlit end.
