I like to show the cigar who is boss. I will normally curb-stomp the ash off.

This is almost as important as knowing if I should wipe front to back or back to front.
I think I should start a poll?

I just stare at my cigars instead of smoking them so I never have this problem.

Strictly technically speaking, you should always roll.

Most cigars are actually tough enough to withstand a gentle tap, however, you're still running a risk.

That being said, do what you want. It's your cigar.

Risk of what? :-)

Or just tell him to "Smoke Yours" and not your cigar :-)

I have cracked a few wrappers doing a tap, so I try to roll when I think about it. But I still tap. Do it how you like brother!!!!
[Reply]

that guy is snoob,your cigar... your move:-)
[Reply]

I give mine a light tap with my index finger, not on the side of the ashtray. If the wrapper is fragile enough that it would crack when I did that, it would probably crack if you gently set it down in the ashtray or looked at it wrong. I'm not too concerned about whether I'm "properly" ashing my cigar, and honestly I'm not even sure what "rolling" it means.

You are really loony! :-)

Personal preference. I prefer to "tap that ash like the government". (bonus points if you know what song that's a play on)

I remember reading on the old forum that to get the ash to release easier when tapping, do a quick double draw and then tap. Works like a charm when you can't risk the mess.

Doinking is good. I like doinking too.

Incredible! Obviously your ash was bothering him. He's WAY too anal.

Interesting observation I've noticed since bringing out the Stinky Cigar Ashtrays . . . I've noticed that a lot of cigar smokers 'roll' their ash on the stirrup of an ashtray (all makes, brands and models). I find that inconsiderate. I sit down with a cigar and go to put it down on the stirrup and find someone has rubbed their cigar-smutz all over the stirrup. Where the FU** do you think the next guy can set his cigar? Ever seen that?

Rolling the Ash Off:
all that means is that you roll the loose ash particles off of your cigar to clean the ash so it doesn't flake off. Agree: it's a very personal preference! It really doesn't matter and certainly doesn't affect your cigar smoke, flavor or aroma one single bit! Of course, this is just my own personal opinion!

A good response would be a long, deliberate stare at the pompous ass, then say: Really? You gonna tell me how to knock the ash off of my cigar?? Geeeezzzzzz! Get a life, Pinhead!
[Reply]

I say both, first tap it on his head then roll it on his eye...that's my preference. :-)
[Reply]

:-)

Me either except like Stinky said to do it, which I have before, but only to clean up some flakiness off my ash.

This made me lol :-)

I've never experienced anyone using the stirrup yet, that just seems asinine to me, why??

Thanks for all the responses guys, yeah he is a douche, but he's my mom's bf....kinda so I have to keep the peace & he doesn't smoke anymore and said his go to when he did was ONYX and to only order from Thompson.

I had to bite my tongue.
