Ever lit rhe wrong end of a cigar?

Well this is a first for me. Clipped the end, put it down and not payng attwntion lit the weong end. Started smkoing it and it just tasted a little dfferent and drew different. Only tjen did I notice the namd. DOH! Being an expensive cigar, I clipped off the lit end and lit it at the correct end. Now just to make sure the wrapper doesn’t inravel since I cut off so far below the cap.
No idea why it would taste different, but it did.

It taste different because you are smoking it backwards.

The wrapper is coming loose from the foot side. Not what I expected.

snot is a smoker's best friend. A little dab 'll do you. I'd suggest leaving the band on, but I understand taking them off. It's what I do.

Oh, hell yes, I guess that I've lit the wrong end once or twice, but you NEVER light the wrong end with a punch. I'm always cutting, wandering around, and then wondering which end to light, and I came to realize that the cut end is always smoother, and the cut end is also almost always askew.

I think that it was mealstrom who stuck the wrong end into his mouth while lit. that is just beyond comprehension. And don't forget, he was a naval technician who worked on nuclear weapons, IIRC.

Please, rich, don't put the hot end in the wrong place at work.

Jeeze, we've gotten old here. My kids stayed home. My wife went to her sister's house and swam in her pool until five. I had a red dot maduro early, i've got a box that I'm going to smoke up. Later I had a por llaranaga, in 4x44, and I remembered why I was fond of the PC size. Then, while all of the noise was going on, we watched brendan frazer in the journey to the center of the earth.

I just verified this with Rich and he was a good sport about it. I told him I myself had cut the wrong end of a smoke just last month and was embarrassed and I was by myself, when I did it. i mean, I still smoked it, but it was not good.

There is a difference.


Cheers!
