Newbie - How Do I Puff Cigars?

[labmonkey]

I had to teach my wife the same thing. She was used to smoking cigarettes from her younger days and was trying to inhale the cigars and almost puked \

The way I got her to understand was (I think this was mentioned above) is to suck with your cheeks. I also told her it is like drinking from a straw. When you drink with a straw you do not immediately swallow the drink. You draw the drink (or in this case smoke) into your mouth very similar to sucking on a straw. Allow the smoke to linger in you mouth for a bit then blow it out.

Also . . . the advice above about smoking s l o w l y is also key. You will enjoy the cigar and it will taste much better if you smoke slowly.

My wife did the same thing....she coughed for about 5 minutes, then got pissed at me for not telling her not to inhale.

I actually used the same explanation as Jason (the straw analogy) to tell her how to smoke.

At least your wives will smoke a cigar. My soon to be wife will not even take a puff off one of mine. At least she will sit outside with me (But only upwind)
