Some of my favorites:
Look closely at the head of the cigar and you will see the cap.
(Nice blurry pic.
)
The cap is a slightly different color than the rest of the cigar and looks similar to a Yakima on the top of the cigar.
(Yakima????? I'm guessing he meant yarmulke.)
Holding the cigar: You hold it between your thumb and forefinger, letting it rest gently on the edge of your middle finger if you please.
Keep the cigar in your hand and at your hip.
Remove the wrapper: After a few puffs, the heat from the cigar will melt the glue on the wrapper, please remove it now. Leaving a wrapper on a cigar is controversial, and there are two camps of theory. Those in Europe and the Middle East consider it a sign of arrogance and showmanship, those in North and South America see it as optional.
Personally, it is better to err on the side of conservatism and simply remove the cigar label. Sure someone might think your Ed Hardy shirt is cool, but chances are people will think you’re a douche. Leaving a label on is for amateurs,
(The only "douche" is the author. Maybe his Yakima is on too tight.)
Extinguishing the Cigar
When the flame gets too close for comfort, time is up,
or you wish to save the rest of the cigar for later, there comes a time to extinguish the cigar.
