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.
