Now that's funny.

When your finished, let the stick burn out instead of trying to crush it out. Best lesson I learned.

The best way to store cigars
The right way to cut and then light a cigar
How to smoke and enjoy a cigar

But the best tip was from Dave, aka Trishield, who encouraged me to attend a herf where I met other BOTLs and SOTLs. The cigar smoking community is just a great group of people to meet and share cigars and conversation with.

One thing I'm kind of anal about........

Don't SMUSH a cigar out like a cigarette. Just lay it in the ashtray, it'l go out in short order and if you mash it out like a cigarette it makes an awful stink.

Next tip.....
Slow down. Take longer breaks between puffs. Makes for a longer, more enjoyable experince.
