@jackthecurmudgeon i know that. i wd still keep the smoke in my mouth but instead of just ‘toasting’ the cigar so to speak i was asking whether you could just suck while lighting it in the way you do with a cigarette. anyway thanks for your advice.
@Cennor11 Thanks for the kind words. I will try to keep the videos coming. Take care, Doc
Hey I love your videos. You really make want to smoke another cigar. And I am really happy you responded to my comment so fast. You just earned another subscriber. Keep the good videos going.
@Cennor11 Don’t remember when I started, but probably about 1-2 a day.
How long have you been smoking cigars and how often do you smoke one?
@dougpryce92 cause you’d get sick. cigars aren’t meant to be inhailed. you just taste them and smell them.
@dougpryce92 You do take a pull when lighting, but not until you’ve got the coal heated sufficiently. Cigarettes but quickly and burn hot, but cigars have a higher moisture content and you want to make sure the coal is entirely heated prior to drawing. This keeps the incompletely burned and other charred chemicals from getting drawn into the cigar and affecting the taste.
another quick question. when lighting a cigar why do you not suck in when lighting like you do if you were smoking a cigarette.
@dougpryce92 You can find longer cigars at any local retail tobacconist. Look up “tobacconist” in your Yellow Pages.
this may be a stupid question but where can i buy these long cigars. wherever i go all you can get is the small ones! (i’d rather not buy them online)
@jono16 Cool! Glad to hear it helped out.
Tried this the other day after watching your video…was truly amazed at how positive of a difference it makes to the smoking experience. Freshens up the smoke beautifully and also keeps it burning nice and even. Thanks for the tip!
@exprime8 I would hang on to them. Lock them away in a humidor and let them rest for at least 3 months. Try them again, I think you will be surprised by the change.
Hey Doc, i had some cigars rolled for me, they looked awesome, i couldnt wait to get home and smoke 1. BAD IDEA. I started smoking, and then i had to stop. The taste was so bad, like smoking furniture/glass cleaner. I purged, but no luck . it even numbed my tongue. I still have a full box left over in my humi. Do i wait a few months to see if they change or throw them out ???
@docstogiefresh It works. Normally it would get bitter beyond the 2nd half of my cigar, I purged once in a couple puffs and it reduced the amount of bitterness until it gets to the last 2-3 inches
@e5588849 Cool. Let us know how it works.
wow I learn a new thing everyday, thanks doc. Wonder how many good cigars I’ve wasted, will try you method tonight
I did this trick and it does work.
I try yo techniques and it is just amazing. Thanks for this video.
wow i have been doing that for a while and never knew that.
Wow! What a difference. Smoked a one month old Maria Mancini Magic Mountain and what a difference it makes. How come I’ve never seen this method b4?
Coolest lessons in cigars Ive ever had, Thanks Doc!.
I tried this today while smoke a Padron about half way just to see if it would make a difference and it certainly did. I just wish I would have done it more often throughout the cigar. Great tip. BTW I’ve noticed you smoke some big ass cigars Doc lol.
Tried this last night and it worked perfectly! The multicolor flame was cool. Thanks Doc!
