Check The Ashtray: Using Ashes To Determine The Quality Of Your Cigar by : www.backwoods-and-cuban-cigars.info
The following article includes pertinent information that may cause you to reconsider what you thought you understood. The most important thing is to study with an open mind and be willing to revise your understanding
if necessary.
How to tell if your is of the highest quality? Check the ashtray—the ashes left behind can speak volumes about the quality of your cigar. Here a few simple tips to determining the quality of your cigar.
First, note how fast your burns. A that seems to burn too quickly or disposes ashes that break apart easily is probably a lower quality cigar. If the ashes seem too messy, and don't break apart together, this may also indicate a lower quality cigar. Also, check the color of the ashes. If the ash color seems to change, the tobacco leaf mix may be of poorer quality.
Once you begin to move beyond basic background information, you begin to realize that there's more to cigars than you may have first thought.
The highest quality cigars, those that are well packed, will burn very slowly and burn stiff ash. The 'stiff ash' can remain intact up to two to three inches long, and remain on the without breaking apart. A high quality can be burned down to the nub. Even high quality cigars may vary in taste, especially when they are smoked down to the nub. Many times, you can usually get 'burn past' these bitter spots by letting the burn on its own for a few minutes.
Of course, it's impossible to put everything about cigars into just one article. But you can't deny that you've just added to your understanding about cigars, and that's time well spent.

Cherry Pick of the Month (December) December 2008: El Rey del Mundo Coronacion Tubo
This month we picked a Cherry Pick that seems fitting for the month of December - the El Rey Del Mundo Coronacion Tubo with a dark Connecticut broadleaf maduro wrapper. This is a one time offering from the General Cigar factory made just for the Holiday 2008 season.
These 7 1/2 inch by 52 ring gauge beauties are individually sealed in glass tubes to preserve the delectable, full-bodied Honduran flavors and packed in cedar boxes of 10. The packaging and physical size is unique to this popular brand. The Coronacion makes a great gift item for the Holidays or a great way to keep some extra cigars around the house that don't need to be put into a humidor as the glass tubes will keep the cigars fresh for almost an eternity. A great addition to one of the finest cigar brands made in the world today and an absolute "must try"!
