With extensive experience in the tobacco industry, Wascar Aracena, brand ambassador and production coordinator at La Aurora, offers practical recommendations to help smokers have a fuller and more mindful experience when enjoying a cigar.
Among his key tips are:
- Take your time. Smoking should be done calmly and unhurriedly to make the most of every moment.
- Examine the cigar before lighting it. Observe its construction and notice its aroma when cold.
- Light it properly. Use a soft-flame lighter or long matches to avoid burning the cigar unevenly.
- Maintain a steady pace. Avoid smoking too quickly or frequently putting the cigar out, as this can affect the experience.
- Create the right environment. Choose a comfortable and quiet place to enjoy without interruptions.
- Pay attention to each puff. Enjoy the process consciously, engaging all your senses.
“Every cigar represents a special moment that deserves respect and attention. The key is to experience it with calmness and dedication,” Aracena points out.
With these recommendations, La Aurora reaffirms its commitment to tradition and quality, inviting smokers to enjoy cigars with mindfulness and respect.
