First piece of useful cigar amoking advice to the new cigar smoker...

DO NOT (under any circumstances) try to put the lit end into your mouth...

My brother in law has put the wrong end in his mouth. I think he was under the influence of cheap beer. My brother smoked an H. Upmann Signature Double Eagle backwards somehow...I guess it's easy to confuse the head and the foot!
I always find it humorous when someone asks which end you should light...good opportunity for bad advice...
