First smoke the best?

After that compliment you just gave me, I hate to have to somewhat disagree you. I am a huge fan of smoking my favorite cigar, no matter the strength, as the first cigar of the day because that is when the palate is the freshest.

It's usually a good idea to clense the palate between smokes so the first one is not lingering. Maybe before you smoke that next cigar, plan on a meal or a snack between to get the palate back on track.

Also, it's just takes some time and experience.
