where do you stop?

[Drake]

how far down do you smoke your cigar? if i'm really enjoying a good cigar, i'll take it about a half inch from the band.

I've been known to smoke a good cigar until it starts burning my tounge.

I love the flavor/intensity a cigar gets towards the end. Its my favorite part of the smoke.

[Yeagermeister]

this generally depends what mood im in, and of course, how good the cigar is. On average i stop smoking when there is about one inch left..

[labmonkey]

it depends on how much I'm enjoying it also....i have been known to go to the point of burning fingers on occasion....but generally speaking, i stop when i can still comfortably hold the cigar between thumb and two fingers. Usually a little over an inch or so i guess.

same here, about an inch. i dont know if thats proper cigar etiquette, but hey, i'm enjoying it...

I had a Bolivar Corona Jr. the other day that I smoked down to the point of blistering my fingers.

I smoke them down to about a each also, I guess when the smoke starts getting hot or I can't hold it between my finger and thumb. I had a cigar once that the smoke starting get hot after a few draws, didn't smoke much of that one and won't but another!

I smoke em close to the band, cut band off and huff till heat singes hair on lip. Then I let it go out and chew on it for another hour or so. I'm not cheap, just don't like giving up a good thing.

Chew on it for another hour or so??

hehe, don't mean to sound stupid but.... like gum? or like chewing tabbacoo?

Well, I have maybe smoked about a half dozen cigars since I started a couple weeks ago, and a couple of them I kept smoking till it hurt. Maybe half inch left... I never had to cut the band off, they just slide down for me(so far)

When I think about the art, craft and perfection that goes into a fine cigar, I almost find it criminal to smoke it any less than to the bitter end or the cap. When cigars start burning hot, near the cap, then I toss it.

But as a few others have stated, pass the 75% mark, the flavor intensity gets soooo much better. I have absolutely burned my fingers and tongue (smile) on a few cigars.

My norm, is that I smoke them to the absolute bitter end.....
