Something, I never knew I needed to know about Cigar appreciation

[CaptainQuintero]

I think a great piece is one from Sir Pigster years ago, avoid cigar gurus! The most fun you can have and the most valuable information you can get will come from you putting fire to a cigar.

Tips for improving draw or cutting and other practical advice is great but when it comes down to what is a "good" cigar, no one can tell you what you will enjoy. Try as much as you can and keep an open mind to every cigar out there regardless of country, marca, size, factory code, hype, disparagement etcetera etcetera

for me:

punch cut. punch cut. punch cut!

I agree with Smallclub ... Just try the different methods others here posted and see what works for you ..

I use my nail to cut the cap off ....

Jimmy, how exactly does that work? Do you just pry off between the caps?

Never used a punch cut before may have to look into it.

I just punch a small circle with my nail inside of the cap ...Rob taught me that about 8 years ago when I meet him and it works for me ..

If I am not mistaken, most Cuban locals use teeth or nail to cut the cap. Very few, if any, use a cutter.
