Did you know that a person who rolls cigars is known as a torcedor or torcedora (these days most are women)? It's a highly skilled job and torcedors are usually the highest paid workers in a cigar factory. There are several classifications or grades of torcedor, and it takes at least a year of training and practice just to attain the first level. Highly experienced master torcedors can make approximately 70-150 cigars per day, depending on their skill and the complexity of the cigar.

Sample cigars are tested by a "catador" who smokes them to ensure quality is being maintained. What a tough job!
