Do you spit a lot when you smoke?

Sonic04GT · 11-04-2011, 12:09 AM

Maybe this is a habit carried over from when I used to smoke cigarettes but I spit A LOT when I smoke cigars. Is this normal or am I just overreacting?

I recall hearing a while back it's a good idea to avoid swallowing the far filled saliva.

I always smoke outside so it's not really an issue. A good drink just washes it all down anyway

I did when I started after quitting cigarets but have not in a few years might have something to do with your palet

I wouldn't say ALOT. I spit more when I smoke than when I don't though.

Nope, no spitting for me, even when i was still smoking cigarettes...

This seems like a common occurrence when you begin the hobby of smoking cigars (at least from the people I know and experience I've had). It will fade with time.

I agree with MJ.
I used to spit when smoking a lot.
Now I don't at all.

Subvet642 · 11-04-2011, 07:48 AM

No, it never occurred to me to spit.

I don't. In my opinion it's a nasty habit (if you are doing it all the time, not just once during an 8 hour herf, for example). If you don't spit when you are smoking at an indoor lounge, why spit when you are outdoors. Just my

elderboy02 · 11-04-2011, 05:54 AM

No.

chaase321 · 11-04-2011, 06:06 AM

I did a little bit (maybe 5 times per cigar) when i first started, but after about two months now it is maybe 1 time per 5 cigars...You will get used to them, they actually WILL taste better and you won't have to spit!

Blak Smyth · 11-04-2011, 06:11 AM

I felt the need to spit sometimes when I first started smoking.
I would only spit when I was alone on my property.
I don't feel the need to spit anymore however, I just don't have that "need to spit" feeling anymore. It's good because it is a nasty habit to see somebody else doing.

thechrisdotcom · 11-04-2011, 06:13 AM

Yes and no. I find some cigars I smoke will make me need to spit, others not so much.

Mattso3000 · 11-04-2011, 07:39 AM

No.

CigarSquid · 11-04-2011, 08:06 AM

I used to catch myself doing it when I first started... Very rarely do I now.

I still do every once in awhile, never thought about it until I read this thread. It's interesting that a lot of people did when they first started.

Only when I smoke a Gorilla Finger.
