Cigar aging experiment

[MoneyPit]

I've also always wanted to microwave a cigar in different power settings in/out of cello in 10 second increments.

This comment reminded me of a funny microwave experiment by Smithy and MKZ....

Microwave a cigar

And what is wrong with using JP, does a marca make this less interesting? He likes that cigar, he's had it numerous times - he know the cigar - seems like the ideal control if you ask me.

I agree for the most part. And from that perspective, it's valid. Of course it's also reasonable to raise the concern that because it is short filler and not a mainstream Vuelta Abajo production, any effects he sees may not generalize well to say, a Bolivar Petite Coronas.

But for sure, the effort is to be applauded.

What comes out looks sort of like an asymmetric normal curve with a leptokurtic negative skew.

Ah yes!!!!!! The famous leptokurtic negative skew. I would have guessed that immediately!
