When to enjoy Cigars - by Al Remp

Your introduction to cigars – regardless of the fact that you are either a long-time cigar connoisseur or are still seeking that perfect pleasure, rests with when you enjoy them.

I have always believed that certain blends are enjoyed better at certain times of the day.

Remembering that an early morning cigar will awaken the taste buds, a more mild cigar coupled with a fine coffee or espresso would be ideal.

In the Afternoon, after talking, eating, etc. all day, the choice should be a cigar of medium strength.

And by day’s end, a fine meal and total relaxation – a cigar could be more to full body. All senses are prepared to accept a cigar of this type.

I am certain that a full body cigar, before the four sensory areas of the mouth are ready, may, for some cigar smokers, create an experience that is not acceptable and considered harsh.
