Relighting a cigar

[Quint]

I learned this technique years ago at a cigar dinner from a rep of a cigar manufacture. Works pretty good most of the time. Personally I dont think it takes away from the base taste of the stick but it can remove the harshness. I think it was really developed to refresh your cigar if you've let it go out and it has sat around for some time. For example you finish half the cigar the night before and want to spark it up again the next day it removes the burnt stale taste.

Followed this method exactly last night, and it worked like a champ.
