Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
I have done both ways. I prefer to take them out of the cello personally. I have seen other people actully get the cello jammed into the cutter and then make a mess of the cigar trying to free it.

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
You would think the cello, being oil derived, may also actually do some lubricating of the blade. It's worth a shot.

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
I heard that leaving the cello on while cutting and smoking is how the true aficionado does it. Especially when the cello has been on for awhile and develops a yellow tinge. You don't want to waste all the oil residue left on the cello
On a serious note. I might try it but it seems it would be more of a hassle. Don't change if not broken. |

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
I remove the Cello on all my NC cigars when I receive them. I find that the sticks get up to the proper RH quicker in my cooler that way so no cello here

Dear Lord, Thank You.

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
I do it all the time if I'm just grabbing a cigar for "on the go". That way I can leave my cutter sit where it's at and don't have to haul it along.
Works fine.

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
I have seen the girls at Casa Fuente do this before when I bought a stick there. She asked if she could cut it for me and I let her. She cut it with the celo on. I actually raised a stink about it and got her to give me another cigar that I cut myself...wierd

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
I always take the cello off first I tried leaving it once and the cutter slipped and I got a messed up cut. But I hear that leaving the cello on works great especially if your cutter is getting dull.

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
I try to shave the cap with the palio as close as I can. If I have to cut more, so be it. I would think this would be a problem going through the cello. I'll have to give this a shot with a torpedo.

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
I also shave the cap with my cutter so I barely get any of the binder/filler. I'm fairly certain this would be pretty hard to do with cellophane on.

Re: Cello on or off? BUT this is Cutting the stick
Don't know if I can do it... seems all wrong somehow. Guess I just enjoy the removal process...
