Hi Everyone,
I apologize if this issue has been discussed already, but I was not able to find it. I've been smoking generally on my terrace, and it's pretty windy out there (I live near the beach). I almost always end up having to re light my cigar. Is this likely do the wind, or perhaps I'm not lighting well to begin with? Should I be getting the same amount of smoke from beginning to end? Thanks!

I live on an island that is bloody windy every day of the year. When I'm smoking on my deck I find that I have more re-light/burn issues. You problem could be many things but the wind is probably playing a factor.

Welcome Marcs!

Perhaps the humidity is affecting the burn too?

Lots of things affect that, but wind is definitely one of them. Welcome aboard.

probably the wind.


"Cuban seed tobaccos grown in Nicaragua and Cuba. The wrapper would be from Cuba. The binder leaves would be from Nicaragua. For the ligero tobacco in the filler, he would use two types, one from Esteli and the other from Jalapa in Nicaragua. The other filler components, seco and viso, would come from Cuba, the former from Villa Clara, the latter from Pinar del Rio. That Cigar, he says with pride, would score 100 points."
