No one is going to know ........Really. Lighting a cigar the next day.

[El Presidente]

Have you ever picked up a partly smoked cigar the next day, trimmed it, lit it....finished it. 

Come on.....you can share 

 

[cgoodrich]

Absolutely…

But if it sucks straight away I pitch it. 😄

[iSneed]

For sure.. Ive been there lol. Sometimes they hit and sometimes they are plain 

[NSXCIGAR]

Yes, and they tasted like rat's bunghole so I stopped. Figured that out after trying to save a Zino Mouton-Cadet in 1994. Can't blame me--those were like $9 cigars back then!

 

[eggtimer]

Yep, tried it three times and 2 times it was absolutely no way I could have told the difference - and the on time, I think @NSXCIGAR descibed the taste very aptly ...

[Nevrknow]

Close, but no cigar. I did worse. 😥

Way back when I first started,

Had a tubo pyramide. Thought I was smart. Purged the hell out of it. Clipped the dead cherry. Stuck it in the tubo and into the humidor.

The tube would seal up and be fine correct? 

WRONG! Desktop humidor and ALL things involved smelt to hell.

Took me 3 weeks to fix that flub up. Never again. It's out? It's OUT. 😁

If there’s half left the next day, it wasn’t any good to begin with. 

[El Presidente]

Loving the poll.

......Half the forum are appalled

......Half the forum are relieved 

😁

Never tried it and don’t plan on starting. 

[Bagman]

Even the cold smell of a cigar the next day is horrid.  What is wrong with people!  Hard pass.

[ddjames]

No sloppy seconds on my cigars

Pass

I'll second that!

[anacostiakat]

Ooo Fah.  Sacrilege.  

[BigGuns]

A few hours?  Sure. Later that night?  Why not. The next day?  Hell no. 

Not sure what it is - the quality of stick or extent of inebriation - but sometimes after a couple hours it’s still good to go, and other times it’s a hot mess of ass (ash?) and gets tossed. 
 

(fighting with all I’ve got to not insert a Chris Rock joke here)

[Smatthews607]

Nope. If it's good, I will finish the smoke, no matter the time. Who needs sleep, anyway? If there is a big chunk of the cigar left, it's probably cause it wasn't that good. And if leaving it out overnight improves the taste, we got serious issues here.

[Tunkat92]

I have the same day a couple times…it was never a good experience. No way I’d light it up the next day. I smoke cigars for the experience it provides, so I don’t want to waste time on an unpleasant experience.

[Ford2112]

When I was younger. And not so smart

[madandana]

Just did it tonight. Jaunita Corona extra- Call me a red neck but I wasn’t going to let it go to waste. Yes, it was good!

[westg]

Heathens 🌴😎. No for me. 

[Fuzz]

Yes, it was not a wise decision. I plead that I was young and dumb (now I'm old.... and a little less dumb).

It was the last cigar of the night and I just couldn't finish it, So I let it go out, clipped off the burnt end.... and then popped it into the tubo. That tubo trapped in all the burnt, crispy flavours and magnified them for the next day. One puff and I chucked it instantly. Never again shall I make that mistake.

Only once, and over twenty years ago.  I went with a group of my best friends to a lodge in the mountains for a bachelor’s party/fishing trip, and we took a bunch of BBF. At the end of one night, the groom-to-be and I decided to light up one more Boli, after having probably two already that evening. Way too drunk, couldn’t taste a note through 1/3 or more, and falling asleep, so we put them down. Probably 3am by then. The next morning, my youthful ignorant self woke up before anyone, made coffee and poured a delicious mug, then stepped out on the deck to see whitetail deer running through the trees, and a cloud of mist hovering over the river which was far below. Like standing on top of giant puffy clouds, majestic and awe-inspiring. I looked over and saw my cigar from the night before, and thought “what the heck, I’m hungover anyway.” Big mistake. Tasted like a skunk sprayed a buffalo’s rear. Talk about killing the mood. Didn’t smoke again that entire day… just couldn’t get that flavor out of my senses and didn’t want to risk wasting another one.

[BoliDan]

I avoid that... Yes. No. No. Re-lit cigars in 15% humidity is gross. Maybe if you're in Florida this might work for you

[JohnS]

I wouldn't recommend it, no.

Real story. 

 Last July I went to see a friend at his house. He asked me if I had any cigars, but I didn’t bring any with me. I didn’t know he smokes cigars. 

He said:

 

Don’t worry, I have one siglo IV tubo in my car. It was gifted to me for Christmas. I smoked a little bit, left it to cool off and put it in back in the tubo and in the glove compartment in my car. It’s been there since then. 

I was laughing hard and told him just to trow that s..t away. I have tried once to relight a cigar few hours later and it was awful. I couldn’t imagine that a once smoked cigar in a tube that was sitting in a car for half a year would be smokable. 

I was shocked when he got it out of the tube and lit it. I couldn’t help myself and took few puffs, and it was good, full of flavors and no harshness. It didn’t even crack. He smoked it and enjoyed every bit of it.
