Cigarillo: Short, narrow cigar. Similar to a 'little cigar' or a cigarette, but instead of being wrapped in paper, they are wrapped in whole tobacco leaf and are most often seen without filters. These are meant to be smoked like a cigar instead of a cigarette. The most popular brand in the U.S. is Swisher Sweets.
