This is my first post and I want to thank all of you because I've learned a lot reading on this forum. I was wondering if any of you know of something to get rid of the cigar breath I get after smoking. I keep waking up the next morning with the worst breath and you never know when the wife will need a little lovin' and I want to be ready. Any help would be appreciated.

Just take a little Myers rum. Swish it around in your mouth...swallow. Repeat until the bottle is half finished. You won't give a crap what your wife thinks about your breath during the moment of passion. Works for me every time. :smiley20:
I like that one.
But......
I'd go with just a good teeth brushing with a baking soda toothpaste or A LOT of Altoids!
Do they have rum flavored toothpaste? :smiley4:
orbit gum, brush teeth, maybe a shot of vodka (for the wife). course it also depends on the strenth of the cigar you have.
good old original listerine

My wife picked up some of this stuff where she works...

It has lasted a while, and two or three drops clears up even a strong cigar. Works tons better than a lot of similar liquid drops I've tried.
Other than that I brush and Listerene at least twice a day.
The Henry Clay mints work pretty well, but I if you think Altoids are "intense" then I would advise you to stay away from the Henry Clays. lol
This will sound really silly and you will feel silly doing it but it does work. most bad breath, whether caused by cigars or anything else, actually comes from the tounge. The key is while brushing your teeth also brush your tounge. I know it sounds foolish but it really helps a lot. I have also found that after brushing, while swishing around some mouthwash, to scrape my tounge across my top teeth to give the mouthwash a good fresh surface to penetrate. Don't believe me? ask a dentist. :smiley20:
Thanks for all the replies. I was listening to Cigar Dave show on XM and he was talking about a breath spray that some cigar shop sold in Florida that worked like a charm on cigar breath. I was driving and couldn't write it down and my memory isn't what it used to be so I forgot it. Thanks again.

i don't think they sell any of that at my shop. i'll look for it next time and see if i can figure out the name.
I usually stick to the good old original listerene. (That stuff could cure a camel's breath!)
Forget all the peppermint perfume hype. It's only temporary anyway. Clean means fresh. Brush your teeth, and gums with a good power toothbrush and floss at least a couple times a week. The most important thing for breath is brushing the BACK of the tongue, almost into the throat. Mucus builds up here and traps a lot of food particles, smoke residue, and grows a lot of bacteria. You must break this up completely. It's not easy because of the gag reflex. You'll have to train yourself for a while before you can do it properly. If you do it right, you'll have a nasty wad of gunk to spit out and you won't be able to see a film on your tongue no matter how far back you look. Afterwards, gargle with a mild anti-bacterial mouthwash or a solution of hydrgen peroxide and water or baking soda and water. Just plain water if nothing else is available. Your breath will be fresh for a long time after doing this.
I brush so far back, my wife can't stand to watch me do it.
Sounds alot like something I told my fiance'. :smiley36:Quote:
