Understanding Size & Format
Cigars vary in both length and ring gauge. These factors influence draw, smoke time, and how flavours develop.
- Length affects smoking duration.
- Ring gauge affects fullness, temperature, and feel.
- Shape can change the smoking experience significantly.
What To Notice When Smoking
When trying a cigar, pay attention to the draw, burn line, aroma, body, and finish.
- Is the draw smooth or tight?
- Does the cigar burn evenly?
- Are the flavours creamy, spicy, earthy, woody, or sweet?
- How does the profile change through the smoke?
