In the last article, we talked about some things you shouldn’t do when tasting, cutting, lighting, and smoking a cigar. This time, let’s discuss more about it.
When you want to share a special cigar with a friend, some people think about cutting it in half. This is a big no-no. Each cigar is made of different types of tobacco leaves, which provide different tastes at different stages. Cutting a cigar in half ruins the experience and can cause the wrapper to come off and the cigar to get damaged.
After smoking, just place your cigar in the ashtray and let it go out on its own. Stubbing it out in the ashtray can make the wrapper peel off and produce more smoke. Plus, a broken cigar doesn’t look nice.
To a cigar lover, a cigar is like a living thing. After it has given you a wonderful experience, let it go out gracefully.
Humidors absorb smells. If you put a half-smoked cigar back in, it will pollute the other cigars and the humidor itself. The burnt smell is hard to remove and will make the humidor smell unpleasant.
Most cigar boxes don’t have humidifying functions. After buying cigars, you should place them in a proper humidor that can maintain a consistent temperature and humidity. While some boxes do have humidifying functions, but it’s best to use a professional humidor.
Regularly check the cigars in your humidor and adjust the temperature and humidity. Proper care will ensure your cigars taste better over time, yumm yumm.
A fridge is great for keeping fruits and veggies fresh but not cigars. Cigars need long-term care, not short-term freshness. The ideal storage temperature for cigars is 18-20°C with 65-75% humidity. A fridge can’t provide these conditions.
