[RevSmoke]

If you are going to do this, I have found a great way to indicate when the cigar is purged. I put a soft flame (I guess a torch might also work, but I use a soft flame) to the lit end of the cigar and blow through it. A cool blue flame is produced. Blow until there is no blue flame coming out the end of your cigar - it is effectively "purged". Then set it down.

I sometimes do this if a cigar become slightly bitter or acrid, sometimes even if I am not enjoying it as I was earlier in my smoke. A purge can be very helpful at times.

Peace of the Lord be with you.
