Chewing on Cigars

[597]

I personally don't chew on my cigar, and I don't care what doctors say are healthy, hopefully I too (like George Burns) will outlive my doctor.

that would be close enough for postal work.

LOL..Cordero, never heard of that word, again I've never spoke proper Spanish. Isnt that the same as a "Borega or Chiva?"

Even though I haven't tried chewing a cigar, I don't think it's the type of thing that would appeal to me. Nicotine or no, the smoking is what I enjoy, and I can only imagine that the chewing would hamper the experience when it came time to light up.

As for health concerns, I personally don't have a doctor (don't trust them), but I have great respect for healthy living. To me, I would rather live a long life for others than a short one for myself, and unhealthy living shortens the time I have on this earth for others.

Actually after chewing on it so long it really hampered the draw. A definite bubbling feel on every draw. It was still smokable though.

Chewing on a fine constructed handmade cigar--my word! I've never and would never do such a thing-What is the pleasure of doing this?

In my humble opinion, Part of my experiences have been the flavor of the wrapper to my lips. I have a dozen or so sticks that I will cut and draw on for a small amount of time before I light it. prelight draw and flavor is for the most part a little different than when its lit. it can be better or worse. Now...I may not "chew" on it necessarily, but I do keep it in my mouth and between my teeth.

I am here to kick ass and chew cigars. And I’m all out of cigars.

I chew on them as I smoke them, , some times I dont bother lighting them the last job I had was a talk show host on the local radio station & smoking was not allowed in the studio, did it for 4 years & always had a nice big cigar in my hand or in my mouth , never was allowed to light it up, BUT NOW not only do I smoke at work, I drink single malt scotch when I am on the clock ! , GREAT JOB !!!!!!!

Bubble gum is so much cheaper but you do have me wanting some fried chicken though.

Personally don't chew on cigars. Red Man is cheaper.

yeah, i chewd on it ones but the draw was a bit awfull but still smokable, i usually go to the billards chew on it one game and light it on the next.

as for on what the doc says, i believe everything in the world can kill you sooner or later, so live it anyway you can.

I chew on my stubs until i get a nice dark spit. I think it taste good. My girlfriend on the other hand wants to shove a garden hose in my mouth and open it all the way...

I don't chew em, but i love to draw on them while they are unlit. To me that is the cleanest taste of the tobacco that you are going to get. I do love a mouth full of creamy smoke though. I am not worried about the doctors so much, I would like to be around long enough to have kids and raise them though. So for me moderation is fine.

I do not "chew" on a cigar. I do bite them a lil and the end does get a lil moist as I smoke. There will be a few teeth marks in the stick when I am done, So, yes and no to the question.

No chewing here, but I do support everyone's right to have their vices on their own terms. I wonder if someone did a study and found out how cigar smoking/chewing really does shorten your life. My take is if it's only a year or so, I'd take 30 years of extra happiness smoking cigars and prepare accordingly.
