This is strange, but good advice. It is also quoted a bit out of context.
Not a lot of people understand how they get sick to their stomachs when smoking a strong,
or even a mild cigar. In my view it is from swallowing spit laden with nicotine and burn
compounds/chemicals. One could go a long way to cancer prevention with a little rinse
and spit now and again.
Also while it is good advice for tasting purposes, not everyone should be nasal exhaling.
It can sting and permanently casue them to react in a stinging way.
