How often do you purge (say a robusto)?

What is a "purge" in this context?

Purging is blowing the stale smoke out through the cigar rather then drawing it in. Sometimes it can fix a bitter cigar.

As for me, I only do it if I have a bitter cigar, which hopefully is never. But it happens sometimes.

Thanks.
Interesting.
Not something I would have ever thought of.
Gotta give it a shot sometime.
