    Please do a follow-up on how to properly smoke a cigar. I've seen some poor blokes try and smoke it like a cigarette by inhaling the smoke rather than just letting it settle in the mouth. They got sick from the inhalation and it ruined the experience for them.

      @@bbqwater23 Cigar smoke is much too potent to inhale. Thus it's not about inhaling, but tasting the tobacco. It's a different experience altogether from cigarettes. But all the same, it can be very enjoyable and you do still get a nicotine buzz.

    Great tutorial brother. If I could simply add one suggestion, even before one considers cutting the cigar, I always take a few seconds, to make sure you have a cigar that’s been keep properly, and with the correct humidification. I first inspect the cigar first; looking for any splitting, cracking of the binder, as well as, mold. Lastly, with my index finger, and with slight pressure, push the unlit end, to see if it is too dry. If everything looks and feels good, cut, toast, and light your cigar. Enjoy!

      Yes, I'm so proud! It feels like I'm watching my son grow up and become a man. Just don't inhale the smoke, and only cut a tiny bit off of the tip. The point of a cigar is to taste the tobacco, rather than inhaling it into your lungs. Make sure you have at least an hour of free time before you light up. I've had to learn this the hard way, as I am a former cigarette smoker that switched to cigars because I don't want to live in an iron lung for 10 years. For reference, a cigarette is done in ~5 minutes whereas a cigar will not be done until you smoke it for between 45 minutes and an hour, depending on how frequently you draw. Keep these things in mind, and you're gonna have a great time. Welcome to the club man!

    A very American way to light a cigar. Legit, but we do it differently here in Europe. Your method might overheat the cigar foot. We try not to suck air to a flame but to slowly light the rim of the cigar foot, preferably with a soft flame, creating a bulls eye. And through a circular or up and down motion of the cigar, we distribute the heat evenly. That way you reduce the risk of overheating which can impact the flavor. At least that's what we might choose to believe. There is no right or wrong.

      Do you smoke a lot of cigars?

      @@gentslounge I used to a lot in my early 20s, I would cut a notch out of the head with a V cutter and light it with a wooden cigar match. I was told it was ment to give the cigar a "pure" flavor by not ruining the flavor with a gas lighter, I never thought it was much of a difference but I personally never used a lighter.

      ​@@joshuacrump7160No, they cant cause laung and esophagus cancer, as stated, you dont inhale them. The cdc had finished what is essentially a 30 year study, and hand rolled cigars (meaning just tobacco, not things like black n milds, and phillys which are just big cigarettes) have little to no health risks. "The risks are statistically nil". The reason the have gotten such a bad rap was because whenever studies were done there was no differentiation between premium hand rollled sticks and gas station mixed, sprayed, filler.

    Can we agree on if you're lighting the cigar on your mouth and your cigar lights on fire, it doesn't mean you toasted the cigar, it means you burned the cigar and iy becomes bitter
