Weird Question

Sasquatch

I was sitting in my B&M yesterday lighting up a WOAM. You know the perfecto sized, closed foot with a tip on the foot. I know that's not the correct terminolgy......Anyone, Anyone, Kuzi, Anyone... As I was just lighting up normally, this loud fellow decided it would be a good idea to announce to the B&M that you are supposed to clip the tip of it off before lighting. I wanted to just tell him to stfu, but since I'm trying to be kindler & gentler in 2014 I listened to his loud and lengthy exposition on cutting this size. I even smiled and asked about the weather afterward. Well long story short...Are you supposed to cut the closed foot tip off these cigars?

Well, the foot isn't actually closed, just very small. I don't clip it since I haven't had burn issues without doing so.

Lee.mcglynn

That's guy is dumb...you did the right thing!

Ken Light

I don't clip it for those. But for truly closed feet(foots? closed-footed?) maybe a clip would be in order, but those are pretty few and far between. I think I remember Viaje doing one or something.

Correct answer is..."Cool story bro! Have you ever been shot?"

Amos Umwhat

I've done it both ways, depending on what I see as I look at the foot, and how I feel at the moment.

TY guys. I've always just toasted it up like any other cigar & never gave it a 2nd thought before this happened. That's very close Bob, but on this particular cigar it is a very pronounced tip...I hate to say it..my cigar had a nipple on the end of it, but it really does.

I like that vitola because they are way easy to light.

Was it closed off? If I had one that was completely closed off I guess I'd cut it.

It isn't completely closed so if you clip it you're wasting part of a fantastic smoke. He's an idiot.

+1 the beauty of the perfecto is how easily you can toast & light it. A great choice if you're going to be lighting up in windy conditions. I read somewhere that Hemingway liked perfectos when he was fishing because they were easy to light… urban myth??? You decide! duh duh duuuuhhhhnnnn...
