how do i prepare a cigar for smoking?

Question

I have a cigar taht I want to smoke but my husband has always gotten them ready for me. I know he cuts off the ends but am I supposed to cut off both ends? how much do I cut off? any advice would be great.

Answer 1

You trim off about an eighth of an inch or just enough for lighting. both ends need trimmed if it is a well rolled cigar.

Answer 2

1) You need cut the far tip off, think of it like it's a briske, no I'm kidding, you don't want to cut off the whole thing, just the very back part b/c it's is incredibly hard to light & tastes bad.
2) They sell this for keychains, but's it a lil tiny hole that that you puncture where you put your mouth on the cigar. This makes it easier to shape it the way you want when you breathe.
3) Light the cigar, but while lighting it, make sure you take deep puffs the idea is to make sure the butt of the cigar is lighting evenly.
4) if there is one side that is slowly burning than the other, breathe in heavy on that side of the mouth part so it can catch up with the other part

You better be 18 or older....

Answer 3

you cut off the side that is closed and light the other one

Answer 4

Don't follow Bill Clentons method. They must smell terrible, and I don't want to know how they taste.
