1. I read that you're only supposed to cut off 1/8 an inch on your cigar, but that doesn't seem like it would apply to all cigars. Is there a rule of thumb depending on the shape of the cigar, and if so, what is it?
2. Being as I walk, rather than use an ashtray, should I hold my cigar with the tip turned upward, or downward? The hand naturally wants to tip it downward, but I figure that would burn the cigar quicker.
3. Is it just my imagination, or do cigars change in taste as they burn? I was smoking a cigar I bought today (the name escapes me at the moment) and at first it was very mild and boring, but it ended up being very good towards the middle and afterwards.
Thanks guys.
