    Generally i smoke kind of slow but with few relights which I dislike.. I find though,that if I pay attention the cigar will tell me how to smoke to get the full effect of the cigars flavor.

    1st, though I've been enjoying cigars for a few years now I still think of myself as a total noob, especially against the wealth of knowledge here on ccom.
    With that said what is a "wet" smoker ???
    Someone that gets the end of the cigar moist with saliva while drawing ? if so I do that too
    As far as smoking speed, depends on my mood and the cigar, I've noticed that when I'm in a better then normal mood, I tend to smoke the cigar to fast while probably drinking to much as well, if in a somber mood, I tend to smoke a little to slow, also I have a hard time smoking slower if the cigar is just to d@mn good even though I know it can burn the flavor, everything being normal an average Robusto will last right about 1.5 hours give or take

    I smoke slow and enjoy every draw but there is a way to smoke slow and yet not have it go out on you which is the common complaint for smoking slow. 2 small draws and then one long slow draw will keep your cigar burning w/o a relight unless of course your cigar is over humidified.

    Yes, I put too much of it in my mouth I think. Thus, the saliva.

    Cool thread Lee, and I'm a pretty slow smoker myself anymore. I base my smoking speed off each cigars ash... Meaning I know if I am smoking too slow or too fast by ashing the cigar and looking at the coal of the cigar. If it ashes and looks like a dome I am smoking too fast since all te tobacco is not burning at the same pace, the outside is burning faster hence the cone. If I am smoking to slow it'll look like a bowl, meaning the inside is burning faster than the outside. So I try to smoke so that the ash falls flat and all tobacco is being burned at the same pace so that I can taste the blend exactly as the blender intended to have it taste as you smoke it.

    About an hour and a half for a robusto. While consuming 2-3 fingers of bourbon. Fingers are evenly spaced.
