Stupid Cigar Questions? - Page 3

Glad to see I have been doing OK with my lighting methods.

If its burning and you are enjoying the cigar, then it is properly lit. But I prefer not to puff while lighting, fuel is cheap and I will toast the foot completely before purging then puffing.

Got a couple Gurkha in my box but have yet to try one. They cannot be that bad...

Gurkha gets a bad rap, and much of it is deserved, but there are a few sticks they make that I enjoy, the G3, G5, and the older HK gold. lot of people I smoke with also enjoy the regent, but it doesnt do anything for me.

Don't not knock it 'til you've tried it.

I enjoyed the Doble Maduro, but unfortunately they are (or soon will be) discontinued.

The only one I've ever really liked. I've never gagged on one though.

I have a question:

is it true a cigar is fully aged at 3-years? I read somewhere this was the case.

Is there any harm to pre cutting your cigars?

I would never do that as I like cutting them as I am about to smoke them, but I could see some one going through and cutting all their cigars in their traveldor say before they get on a plane and can't bring their cutter or something.

Has anyone tried breaking up a cigar and smoking the tobacco in their pipe?

Pre cutting is ok i guess, just watch the wrap dosnt unravel.
Piping it dosnt sound very wise, it changes the blend.
