First you have to nip off the closed end of the cigar but don't cut too much other wise you will decapitate the cigar and the wrapper may begin to unravel. Toast the cigar lightly with the flame around the edge of the cigar, after being fully lit blow the first puff out to expel any harsh flavor from lighting, then take an inward puff letting the smoke swirl inside your mouth without actually inhaling the smoke. Savor the flavors a few seconds and exhale and continue smoking in that manner. Take your time puffing and let yourself relax and enjoy the art of cigar smoking.(photo by 20143499 @ photobucket)
