As I smoked tonight, while thinking about the stick itself I also thought about my style of smoking. I noticed I prefer to put the cigar on the left side of my mouth and towards the end I go for the middle. I was just curious, what is your smoking style? Left, right, down the middle? Do you think it makes a difference on how the smoke hits the inside of your mouth?

    Considering I'm left handed I put it in the right side of my mouth (I use my right hand to smoke).

    Well, I'm ambidextrous, I always smoke on the Left side. It just doesn't seem right on the right.

    I go for right down the middle, a cigar just doesn't feel right on either side unless I'm simply holding it. Now if we are talking pipes, then I prefer to clench it on the right side near my canines.

    Never really thought of it before but I guess I'm mainly a middle of the road guy.

    I smoke with my right hand(I am right handed) and smoke down the middle, never really thought about doing it another way. I don't often hold the cigar in my mouth either until the end when it gets a little lighter in weight, if I do anything to favor a side, I favor the right.

    I'm a right down the middle kinda guy. But on the exhale, I'll usually pick left or right depending on the drift of the smoke. I think if i was having a pipe, it would be off to the right just a bit. Kinda like Joe mentioned, around the canines. Being right handed, I kinda favor to the right.

    I am a ambidextrious smoker and generally smoke with it just left of center. Just seems to be where it fits best

    Right hander, and hold the stick between my index and middle finger of my right hand, using my index finger to wrap around the gar normally about where the band is. I don't gum my sticks too much and keep the cap fairly dry considering that you have to put it in your mouth to inhale lol. Just off to the left of center of the middle line for the mouth. -- Brett

    I smoke left handed and like that bad boy just left of center. Don't hold it in my mouth usually like to set it down in the ashtray between puffs.

    Right or left handed, just depends on where I am in relation to the ashtray. I tend to leave the cigar waiting in the stirrups between puffs and never hold it in my mouth.

    Left handed and usually hold it between puffs or sit it on the ashtray....if I'm doing something and have to pack it in my mouth, I put it to the off centered to the left a little...

    Yeah but the only problem is that the company is manufacturing a item that is in the "gray area" and is not mandated by the FDA or the DOH. So really this could have worse side effects then cigarettes.
