How to properly smoke cigars

The main difference between smoking cigars and smoking cigarettes is that cigars don't hang around. Cigars are smoked to taste the smoke. Another difference is that it is not recommended to light cigars with gasoline lighters. This spoils the aroma of the smoke.

Before smoking, cut off the tip of the cigar with a special knife (guillotine).

To light a cigar, you have to follow a whole ritual:

  • First, roll the cigar over a lighted match to evenly heat the tip;
  • Now take a cigar in your mouth and inhale while turning it slowly;
  • Hold the smoke in your mouth, savor the scent, breathe out slowly.

When smoking a cigar, the ashtray is not used much, it does not burn as fast as a cigarette. It is also not worth putting out the cigar - after a few seconds it will extinguish on its own. If the cigar is off and you immediately want to smoke more, you can do so. If part of the cigar is left from yesterday, then it is not recommended to smoke it, since the aroma is not the same, and when lying it acquires an unpleasant taste.

Traditionally, cigars are smoked after meals. With cognac or rum, the combination of tastes will be unique. Cigars are served in beautiful cigarette cases or in a special box for cigars, which also contains a knife - a guillotine. Typically, hosts who gift a cigar to a guest have a choice of several types of cigars in an open box.
