Self flavoring a cigar....any hints?

[homeless_texan]

This really sounds interesting, like was said earlier, take a dog rocket and infuse away. Sombody's got to have some Thompsons lying around. I've got a Henry Clay that I may try this on. I don't think I could make it worse.

JPH -I've only been here a couple of months, but everytime someone asks "Should I smoke this?" you are the first to reply "fire that SOB up!" Always makes me laugh. Keep pushing!!!

Cause he paid his money for it and can do whatever he wants? Were not talking about dipping Opus X into PBR here but possibly making a PBR equivalent cigar into something worthwhile in a fun experiment. I think it's a great experiment.

Whenever I have a cigar that I know wont make the cut, I bury it in a bag of aromatic pipe tobacco for about a week..........The cigar smells aromatic. The taste is mostly the same as before.

WOW there are some very unkind people....I thought that this forum was supposed to be SNOB FREE!!!!....Guess not!...ANY WAY...i WOULD NEVER DO THIS TO A STICK I'D LIKE! I wanted to try something different that I had read about!...and thought that my $1.50 a stick Chevere's fit the bill since they wern't that great anyway!...Cigar's are all about enjoyment any ways, and I enjoyed these so all you hater's can take one of my flavored stogies and ram them as far up your....anyways for those who gave me positve feedback!...Thank you..We need more of you on this forum!

I'm going to bbq my next cigar while wrapped inside a pablano chile.

Actually, I'm glad you experimented and gave us the report. Sounds interesting, although something I may not try. I don't remember ever tasting an infused cigar, well maybe one Acid (they do that, right?) a long time ago.

I think that he's having fun and experimenting with some cheapies. To each is own and enjoy! Nothing wrong with being a little creative sometimes. There are plenty of crap infused cigars out there already that a huge amount of people seem to smoke and like. He's doing his own infusion...

Here is something I do and I'll tell you what, it's very tasty. I take all my good clippings that would otherwise get thrown away (Isoms, Opus etc...) and shred them into a coffee can. I put whole coffee beans in with the tabacco, one or two whole vanilla beans and a little bit of 12 year old Rum/Bourbon misted over the tabacco and mix it up. I then put the lid on and mix it thoroughly everyday. Do this for about a month and smoke it in your pipe once you remove the vanilla beans and whole coffee beans. You can do variations of the above with whatever you like. But I will tell you that it's better than many good pipe tabacco's and it would go to waste otherwise. I'm not really a pipe smoker, but this a nice change of pace.
