    Coventrycat,

    Why are you so hostile towards most of the members here?

    No.
    Why would you spit when you smoke a cigar? When I eat, I don't spit, when I drink I don't spit, when I go to the bathroom, I don't spit, when I'm working on my car I don't spit, when I'm sitting at my computer, I don't spit. I guess I have no idea why a question like this would even come up
    WTF? "cleansing the palate" Scotty, you REALLY need to go back to talking cigars with the children on the Island, they're more your speed.

    As for me . . . occasionally my mouth waters when smoking a good cigar. When I am in my backyard smoking I will occasionally spit when this occurs. Of course I don't anywhere else.

    Like most cigar related matters this is generally a manner of preference. I spit occasionally especially with a stronger cigar. I also have a smokeless tobacco habit (Skoal) which I'm sure contributes to the extra salivation when I smoke a cigar.

    Yeah, Yeah, the dipping is nasty, but I have to get my nicotine in the middle of the day somehow…

    Default Spitter

    Got to be honest, I don't swallow....Okay, seriously, I spit a lot on milder cigars for some reason. A nice strong cigar, both in body and taste leaves me with little saliva, I don't know why. I think I'm a spitter though because I'm a baseball/softball player. But, I actually despise spitting because I'm a hippie who prefers to be barefoot.

    Anyway, enough about me. I spit, usually have a spit cup or empty beer bottle near by to spit into. It could be that cigars are digestifs and so get the juices flowing, that and I naturally start salivating when I think about a good cigar. Had me a local hand-rolled today from my shop that I aged for about 2-3 months in my humidor, I'm salivating just thinking about it now.

    Peace

    P.S. If you are ever in NYC, make sure you roll up to Arthur Ave. in the Bronx. It's the real Little Italy, where the Five Familiies ran the nations Italian mafia. Anyway, goto the retail market and there are guys hand-rolling cigars fresh every day. Very good quality rolls too, the ash is typically 1-1.5 inches on their robustos. On their torpedos I've gotten a 2 inch ash. hooah! Cigars are probably an 8-8.5 out of 10 for fresh rolled cigars, higher rating as they age. Cheap too, 2-4 bucks depending on size.

    Chewing on 'em? Oh man!. I did try keeping an unlit one in my mouth just for the heck of it, ended up salivating worse than Pavlov's dogs.

    i spit, only towards the end of a stick tho, towards the end of the stick when i draw i can feel the smoke hit my tongue, and its sorta a burning/spicy type feeling, and that cause me spit, profusely, like a camel.

    Interesting question. When I first started smoking cigarettes, it seemed like the habit generated all kinds of saliva. When I was sneaking my ciggies behind the shed with my friend, we were both spitting like crazy. Then I got used to smoking and didn't have the need to empty out my mouth so frequently. However, when I started smoking cigars several months ago, the saliva was back and I was spitting alot again. Now, it seems my salivary glands have adjusted to the cigars a little better and the need to spit is greatly reduced. Of course, "ladies" don't spit in public, so if I do spit, it's when nobody else is looking.....at least no other boys..lol.

    Depends on the wrapper. I find that naturals generally don't make me spit but some of the darker wraps do. Also I am more apt to spit towards the end of the smoke. I have always attributed that to the cigar getting wet and releasing more chemicals as well as tar build up. I usually use a punch for all my cigare and the limited opening generally collects more tar.

    I do spit when I am smoking a cigar outside and don't have anything to drink handy. This happens when I am doing yardwork and also when I'm golfing and I have carried my cigar away from the cart. Other than that, no spitting when I have a nice cool drink by my side!

    Don't blow things out of proportion. Please define "most" is that two, maybe three people? C'mon tell us please. When you grossly exaggerate like that, your post loses most of its credibility.

    I'm hostile towards SFG75 because he's a no good piece of garbage. Check out his behavior on CigarPass where he was banned. I would have you check his BS on LetsTalkCigars but they delete posts over there and make their site private so you cannot view his crap.

    Oh, so a POS like Scotty boy shows up here and no one is supposed to say anything? WRONG Too bad jaewing, posts will be made that you don't like and you're just going to have to live with it. I don't like a lot of what you post but I don't constantly whine about it. You need to "mellow out a bit"

    Do you think it was a good idea or a bad idea when Kevin7 and Clancydabulldog came here to warn members of this site about gamelover2004 aka amishbob? Why don't you whine and bitch at them? Where's your post telling people to be "friendly and supportive" of Oblik who's problems here have been discussed at length? (I still have yet to see Oblik apologize or make things right with the fake cigars he's been passing and trading).

    And you're pretty smart or at least think you are, don't you find it strange that Scotty Boy (SFG75) hasn't responded to ANY of my posts? That should tell you something (that I am speaking the truth because I am even though you find it unpleasant which is just too bad for you).

    Anyone find that the need to spit is intense when you are first lighting up and then decreases as you progress? The CAO Italia is like that for me on this issue.
