How to smoke cigars properly
The main difference between cigar smoking and cigarettes is that cigars do not drag. Cigars are smoked to taste the smoke. Another difference is that lighting cigars with petrol lighters is not recommended. This spoils the smell of smoke.
Before smoking, cut the end of the cigar with a special knife (guillotine).
To light a cigar, you must follow a whole ritual:
- First, roll the cigar on a lighted match to heat the top evenly;
- Now take a cigar in your mouth and inhale as you turn it slowly;
- Hold the smoke in your mouth, enjoy the aroma, exhale slowly.
When you smoke a cigar, the ashtray is not used much, it does not smolder as fast as a cigarette. It is not worth extinguishing the cigar - in a few seconds it will go out on its own. If the cigar has gone out and you immediately want to smoke more, you can do so. If part of the cigar is left over from yesterday, then smoking is not recommended, as the aroma is not the same and the lie will acquire an unpleasant taste.
