Best Way to Cut Torpedo Cigars?

[jaewing]

I typically cut 1/4 to 1/2 inch off any torpedo. As long as you do not go past the point where the taper ends and the body of the cigar begins you will be fine. Regular cutters work fine for this. Try with a little and work your way up until you get a good opening.

Enjoy the smokes . . . they are one of my favorites from IT.

Thanks for the advice. They do look like a great cigar. Man...I want one right now! Too bad I won't get a chance until late this evening.

With Monte #2's I generally cut halfway down the taper, I like torpedos and pyramids because you can cut them to match your own preferred draw.

I also like to cut a little off at first, and then cut for a second time when the tar begins to build-up or I'm about half way through the cigar.....I highly recommend multiple cuts. In my experience it has always helped.

I smoked one last night, It was a great cigar, but, towards the end it was less enjoyable. On the next one, I will try to cut it multiple times. Thanks KingPin!
