I got the idea from a thing I read on Winston Churchill. His cigar butts were collected and given to his gardener which he smoked in his pipe. Would you want to grind them or cut them with a cutter a few time to get em to fit in the bowl?
Or a better question would the tobacco taste bad from sitting in the ashtray all day?

Wow, didn't even know you could do that, though... i'm guessing it won't be all that good, for some reason or who knows, it could be good... ?

There would be so much tar built up in the butts. That just sounds gross. I guess if you were desperate for the taste of tobacco or a nic addict you could do that, otherwise why would you want to?

I will admit to enjoying certain cigars so much that I have finished then in a pipe. I used one pipe for this practice as any of the others changed the flavor.

Hmm... *sounds* uninviting, but I must admit, when I get around to some of the things sent out by Shuckins, I may very well keep a pipe by my side!

I can't imagine saving them. Finishing a cigar...different. Never went out
