Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

I've learned from PPPs that having more than 1 cigar at a time helps pinpont flavors and makes both cigars better (unless you are smoking crap... :r).

I've been doing this occasionally and have some reviews written up (which I'll post up sometime later).

Tonight, I got out of work and lit a 97 LGC MdO #4... it just wasn't doing it... sparked up a 99 Hoyo de Depute and all those great LGC flavors were pointed out to me like someone giving me a second opinion... made the Hoyo better, too.

Anyone else do this, or am I a lunatic (or both)?

thought this was another dbl happiness thread... ;)

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

I haven't purposely lit more than one cigar, but I've found myself enjoying the comparison on more than one occasion... Your not (completely ;)) nuts, Dan.

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

Your evil Dan. That is all.

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

I urge you all to try it sometime and see if it makes the experience better like it does for me. It's really fascinating...

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

F**k it, I am gonna light 3, Dan. ;)

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

You are truly hardcore, Tom!

The last time I tried to juggle two at once I got divorced. :r

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

I added a poll for ya, Dan. :lr

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

Does smoking two of the same cigars count? :D

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

I've done the root beer tasting with the La Escepion Longos and a '92 Monte Joyita. Lots of interesting sweet flavors that you did not get from either by itself, but not quite root beer. I have one more pairing to try at another time. :confused::dr

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

I got root beer, dammit! :)

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

You, Peter, are a friggin riot! (I voted 'both', btw. I see that I'm not alone in that belief...) :r:r:r

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

lol, least you tried!

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

I had a Longo but didn't have the 92 Joyita... I was planning on holding out until I found the Joyita, but I just decided to smoke the Longo at Shack.

Therefore, I did not get root beer... :r

Did you get a peach sundae? :)

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

No. Missed the Bacon Explosion again this year as well... :(

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

I missed the explosion too, but I hit Dairy Dock 3 times. :dr

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

I find that when I try this one smoke tends to just overpower the other. I always wind up deciding I just couldn't taste the weaker smoke.

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

Look at a the possible participant's for the punishment pass next year:D

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

No Peter but he's pretty damn close... :lr


In regards to two cigars at once...No but I have smoke two cigars side by side for a comparison.

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

Never tried it alone. I get what you mean about being similar to a PPP. I think it would be best if both were similar in body. If one was a full flavored/full bodied and the other on the mild/med end, it would be difficult to enjoy the nuance of the milder smoke.

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

simple answer ;)

smoked any of those RE's yet Dan?

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

This has been proven to be the case in flavor studies I have read. The study shows that the weaker stimuli will get overpowered by the stronger one.

If you care to read scientific jargon :r

Here's one of mine. :tu I think it's awesome every so often. Sometimes at the B&M I'll light up a second one as the first is finishing, to compare.

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

This is a new one to me. Might be interesting enough to give it a try.

Re: Smoking 2 cigars simultaneously...
 

Done this several times, but with the same cigar of different years. very use full.
I learned this from an american smoker that lives (I think ) in Chigago area (FN ).

Completely different from the PPP where, IMHO, too many cigars go around so after a bit you loose almost all.But this is my personal opinion.
