That was sort of my point. I was actually surprised by the 3 puff thing because I actually do that but not because I knew I was "supposed" to do it. I am not sure how I developed that habit.

Re: Are you doing it right?

I say smoke 'em however you want. Everyone has an opinion on the "how to".

However I have tried exhaling through the nose and it took my smoking expierence to the next level.

Re: Are you doing it right?

I must say, up until meeting CS, I never thought about snorking. Now, it is a must with any cigar if I intend to actually taste it fully.

Re: Are you doing it right?

While I do believe you should just smoke however you want to smoke, I would agree that exhaling **SOME** of the smoke out your nose is really important. It's really not that difficult and you will discover so many more flavors.

Re: Are you doing it right?

I actually kind of do the 3 puff technique myself...more or less from my growing experience smoking cigars.

I still haven't been able to get the nose exhale to work, although I haven't tried that many times. Maybe I will make a point to practice more with my next smoke

Re: Are you doing it right?

I don't know.. I don't really care.. as long as I enjoy the act of smoking a cigar, its all good. I love to retrohale cigars myself.

Re: Are you doing it right?

Exhaling through the nose is essential in getting all the flavors out of a cigar. IMHO.
