Cold Weather & Cigars

Cville Cigar · 10-18-2012, 03:26 PM

With colder weather coming soon, what effect does weather play on smoking cigars outside? I usually smoke outside till about mid November.

It makes your mittens smell like smoke.

I just move the heater into the garage.

bobarian · 10-18-2012, 05:38 PM

I close the front door.

cjhalbrooks · 10-18-2012, 07:24 PM

I wish i lived in a warmer state.

It is likely that you will have more expansion in the cold air than in the warm, so draw a little slower so that you don't crack the wrapper.

Fire up the propane heater.

I crank up the heat in my house, I am quite comfortable smoking there.

I go to my local B&M shop they have a lounge. But, that is when I'm home on my time off. When I'm at work in the Middle East a hoodie is all that's needed. I will smoke shorter fatter cigars so they stay lit better. Robusto's and Toro's work best for me during the winter season.

It sucks!!

CasaDooley · 10-18-2012, 10:09 PM

When its too cold to smoke outdoors, I just go into my home office to fire up.

When it is too cold outside I send my wife to the humidor and she gets to pick what gets smoked inside. For some reason I prefer figurados in the cold. Weird I know but i have noticed as it gets colder most of my smoked cigars are either Beli's or Torps.

I usually wear a sweatshirt when I smoke outside in the winter. Sometimes a jacket, should the temperature drop into the 40s. I get chills just thinking about it.

Any colder than that, it's time to go visit a cigar friendly casino.

Reminds me to renew my American Legion dues. And to check to make sure they still allow cigars in the lounge.

jdakine · 10-19-2012, 09:01 AM

Sit on my lanai. It's not cold where I live

cmitch · 10-19-2012, 09:07 AM

I sat out on the patio last night, about 50º. Should've had a fire but the wood was wet.
