Cigars with revolutionary origins (8)
I believe the answer is:
cheroots
'cigars' is the definition.
(cheroot is a kind of cigar)
'with revolutionary origins' is the wordplay.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'revolutionary' becomes 'Che' (Che Guevara).
'origins' becomes 'roots' ('root' can be a synonym of 'origin').
'che' put next to 'roots' is 'CHEROOTS'.
(Other definitions for cheroots that I've seen before include "Cigars with both ends cut flat" , "Cigars with both ends open" , "Cigars with both ends cut square" , "Square-ended cigars" , "small cigars" .)
