Things about cigars that bother me

Maybe I'm just weird, but there are several things about cigars that are funyn or weird to me, so I'll post htem here for some feedback (sorry, I seem to be a bit drunk on some single malt scotch, so forgive the typos)

- Full bodied cigars burn the roof of my mouth, specifically, the area where my gums connect with the back of my front teeth; no idea why, but milds don't have this effect

After eating a wonderful t-bone steak cooked over Jack Daniels charcoal with some wood on top that acme from jack daniels barrles, my cigar and scotch seem to knock me for a loop; if I eat a tv dinner, down a bottle of wine, and smoke a medium or full bodied cigar, I don't feel a thing, but as I'm typing this, while smokiing a Cohiba Red Dot tubo that I've been saving, I'm very much on my ass

My cigars always seem to go out quicker when I get down to the area where the band used to be; no diea why, but it's annoying to have to coddle them around that area

    *giggle. I used to wish that they would make a Breathalyzer I had to blow in before I posted on a forum. I was a really stupid drunk. This isn't too bad though. I'm glad you are enjoying your Cohiba. Cheers!

    Well the burning of your gum or the roof of your mouth is just a sensetivity to strong tobaccos and high nicotine content. To the second question steak is high in protein where as a tv dinner has more carbs and sugars in there and that is what can prevent the shakes or the almost narcotic feeling a strong cigar can give you. Have some chocolate or something sweet with your cigar or just before lighting up and that should stop you from getting knocked on your butt. Lastly as you smoke the cigar the smoke it very humid and also has a decent tar content the collects on the tobacco as it travels over it making it harder to combust which will make it easier to go out.

    not only that but that area is where the rollers thumb folds over to hold the bunch together before the binder is applied. this can cause a slight twist in the bunch or a tighter spot int he bunch, and cause burn issues.

    Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

    WOO!! Glad to finally have some answers; those annoyances had been bugging me for awhile, but I guess the liquid courage finally got me some answers :)
