I'm afraid to say I'm a "moneysworth" smoker. I keep going till it burns my fingers. I too saw terrible wastage in JJ Fox's smoking lounge. Cigars smoked half way down and left.....criminal. Good to see you back Duncan.

Same as you Dunc, as soon as I start tasting the heat and tar, I'm out. On the 'nubbing' thing, I've also seen someone whip out a pipe and drop the last 1-2cms into it to smoke the full thing - which I thought was interesting!

I smoke it right where you stop. Typically around the band is my caution light. Once it gets to heated and acidic tasting I stop. But sometimes rarely I'll nub the cigar if it's showing me it's worthy, rarely though.

In fact it depends from one cigar to another because sometimes the cigar has a very bitter and unacceptable end and the taste is discouraging to continue, but usually I smoke cigars until I feel that my mustache is starting to burn 🤣
@timtresch4848

How quick you smoke your cigar plays a factor in this because the more frequently you puff the hotter the cigar burns and that overheats the tobacco and gives a more pungent taste if your a quick smoker taking multiple puffs a minute you'll probably want to put your cigar out sooner then if you take your time. Ultimately, I say do what you want if your still enjoying it go down to the nub, if its getting harsh let it go before it puts a bad taste in your mouth literally. I put most of mine out at 1/4th to maybe 1/5th of the cigar left. Longer cigars imo you can take closer to the end because the length keeps the heat away from the end of the cigar for longer, and thicker cigars I think tend to get harsh quicker because its naturally burning more tobacoo every puff, also I think lighter cigars like connecticut leafs can last longer before getting harsh, but the construction, condition of every individual cigar also play a factor, the only rule you need to know about cigars is there are no rules.

I smoke a cigar as long as it tastes good. I’m always trying to prolong that time by smoking very carefully and gentle. I find that the most enjoyable way of smoking anyway. A hot cigar is a becoming a bad cigar very quickly. I mainly smoke Dutch ( I am Dutch ) corona sized cigars with A Brazil wrapper from Balmoral or some local cigar brands. I can’t afford the expensive ones. I do buy them occasionally but they’re not always better/more enjoyable- by far even sometimes. Great channel!

I don’t have a had / fast rule. A good quality, mild cigar, I will smoke to the nub. A strong cigar, or a not particularly interesting one, I will let burn out with about an inch or two remaining. A bad cigar won’t make past the first inch.

Nub, is a small lump, so I suspect that the nub of a cigar is the little round bit at the end. At least that is what I’ve always thought… I usually leave 2-3”. Like you said the flavour profile changes when the filler is coated with all that tar … basically one is smoking the natural filter anything less than 2”…

I smoke it right down to my fingers just before burning them, I tend to blow out residual smoke towards the end A couple of times very gently, just to get rid of the harsh note and I am very careful not to let the temperature get too high. I watch the intensity of the smoke development on the burning end to time my draws. This way, I enjoy the whole cigar

probably down to where the back end of the average cigar band would be, so theres maybe about an inch left, thats usually where i find them difficult to keep hold of and the burn gets too much. smoked my birthday cigar today (birthday was on tuesday) a Psyko 7 in toro, bought purely just because i like the name lol. actually decided it was a bit too on the lengthy side for me, i get bored after about 50-60 minutes of smoking, i think i'll stick to shorter cigars in future.

Obviously, a lot of men smoke cigars because they think that it goes with a certain occasion or a wanted image, but they don't actually enjoy the smoke. Typically they've had quite enough around the halfway point. Personally, I'm a fiend. An excellent cigar tends to get better and better as you smoke it down in my opinion. It's a bit of a hallmark. Consequently I have to pull myself together to come to terms with the fact that the nub has become too small to handle and it's over. I go through this mental battle almost every day, at least in the summer months. It's a hard life.
