Thread: How much of your cigar do you smoke?

  1. Default How much of your cigar do you smoke?

    Just curious if you smoke it until your fingers get hot and turn yellow or is there a point where you call it good?

  2. Default

    Depends on the cigar. Some were made to be nubbed some not. Usually I nub sungrowns. Lighter wrappers I don't smoke as far down. Most Cubans are nubbers.

    EXACTLY!

    It really depends on the smoke. If you are enjoying it smoke it until it hurts. If not chuck it. As with everything in cigars it is all personal taste.

    Sarge has it right-in essence, smoke until you don't enjoy it any more. Extinguishing a Cuban too early will cause him to come out where you live and issue you a ticket for wasting a good cigar.

    I agree with sarge. I smoke a cigar until it quits tasting good. This is usually just before it reaches the band.

    that's what i used to do until some of these guys told me that they like the intensity of the cigar to the very end. and since i've tried this, i smoke it down to about 1/2" if i'm really enjoying it.

    It doesn't take a genious to realize that you arne't enjoying a cigar anymore. Call it quits then. Forcing it, especially at the end, can negatively influence your opinion of the cigar.
