Smelling the Burn Line??

[El Niño]

Anyone here a professional "burn-line sniffer"?

I hear the Lounge Lizards mention it as a way to get different aromas and notes, but every time I try it, I get a seem to just get a nose-full of smoke that burns.

I do this but in a very specific way. I watch the smoke to see what direction it's going. Then I make it so that is the direction the foot is pointing. Finally, I smell the burn line (or near it) so I am sniffing away from where the smoke is going.

I’ve done this since I started smoking. Just a wave under the nose here and there to get the scent.

I do this on occasion. Try it from behind the burn line. That is, point the cigar away from you instead of towards you.

Sounds dangerous. 🤣

I've "sniffed" a lot of things in my younger days. Never a burn line.
