Default Hot Tub Smoking?

I just ordered a new hot tub, it will be deliverd in a couple of weeks. I'm wondering if any of you enjoy a cigar while soaking in a hot tub and whether you have any advice to offer?

My advice? Do it often!

Keep the cigar above the water level is also another "rule."

Cant wait! As some know my wife and I just bought our first house and it has a hot tub! As soon as it gets a little colder we are going to start using it! Cigar-tub city!

Yeah, general rule of thumb is to keep the cigar dry

Get a tray that clips on to the side of the hot tub or stands near it and can protude over the side a bit, that way you can set your ashtray and drink on there

The few oppotunities I've had have been memorable. Very relaxing.

My favorite thing to do on the patio.

Not sure if yours has the stereo, but if not, a radio close by works fine to further enhance the experience.

Shorter cigars typically.
Upwind side is best for smoking.
Upwind side is hard on companions
Dry hand is a good thing

I'd say start with smaller/lighter cigars until you figure out how your body will react, and def go easy on the booze. I keep the cigar hand out of the tub and over the side to avoid the humidity as well.

Have fun with yours. This is the time of year we use ours the most. Nothing better than relaxing with a good cigar while relaxing your muscles. Great way to end a long day.

Thanks guys, I hadn't thought of the shorter cigar angle. Hey...that's a good excuse to go online and find some good short smokes.... this gets better and better.
