Maybe if you make this same post 15 times instead of just 2 times, that might help!

Look at the foot of the cigar if the tobacco is rolled in a counterclockwise looking rotation it is short filler other wise long filler.

Don't ask Google, as the shadow - only he knows.

To truly know the difference between short filler and long filler you need to go on a camping trip with Z

Most of the time, you can tell by the retail price, honestly. If a cigar retails for less than $2/stick, there's a good (but not 100% chance) they are mixed filler.

I have seen some smokes described as having a "Cuban sandwich" blend, which I assumed was a mix of long and short filler. Amirite?

No, I think Cuban Sandwiches have meat in them.

Retail price, yes. However the thought of paying anywhere remotely close to retail makes me shudder in revulsion.

That said, it's how the vast majority of people buy cigars, they just buy them from a website at the normal retail price, and your $2 retail cutoff for filler type sounds about right.
