Your Worst Experience With a Cigar

[Devil Doc]

So, no one has been half in the bag and stuck the wrong end of a lit cigar in his mouth? Yea, right.

Oh, thanks for the reminder Doc. I didn't stick the lit end in my mouth, but I did once drunkenly try to re-light a nub of a cigar that went out on me. Stupidly I tried to light it while it was in my mouth and left a nice little torch mark on my chin from my lighter. The burnt flesh smell had hints of chocolate and rich leather.

Sounds less than elegant.

It wasn't my finest hour. Unfortunately, it wasn't my worst, either.

Did that more than once with cigarettes while drinking back in the day. The other thing that happened more than once was when my lips would be all sticky and I'd go to pull my smoke out of my mouth after taking a drag and the cig would stick to my lips and I'd pull the cherry off between my fingers. That was usually good for a nice double blister, one on each finger. But since I don't drink any more, I haven't and likely never will have either happen to me with a cigar.

My worst experiences are always with cigars that are either too tight or the wrapper splits and neither is an issue I've discovered to be associated with any one make/model.

The too tight issue isn't something I can do anything about but if I bought it at my favorite B&M, he'll replace a too tight cigar free. However, that's a 2 hour drive from here so I don't always hang onto them. Sometimes I'll chop them off and smoke half, or three quarters or whatever I can get out of it.

Now that I've found the best RH for where I live I don't have too many where the wrapper splits. I did recently drop an RyJ Churchill I was about to smoke and it bounced off my humi and hit the floor. That fall and bounce tore the wrapper up badly so I grabbed another. I don't think there's anything worse that effing up your own cigar yourself........LOL
