Retrohale - an idiots point of view

[Grrrrr609]

Ok so I like to retrohale. But I find my sinuses cant handle the retrohale from some cigars. Feels like my sinuses are being ripped out with a dull butterknife.

So from the idiots point of view......DO NOT RETROHALE with a severe sinus infection and ur very congested. That is all.

Duh.... Hahaha

Lol. That's funny.

If retrohaling hurts, try just retrohaling the last 10% or so of the smoke. Breath most of it out through your mouth, then just let the tail end through your nose. It'll be cooler and smoother, but still give you a lot of that extra flavor.

Yeah, what he said that's what I do unless you want sinus cancer. Lol.

I know a guy on Facebook that takes pictures all the time of him retrohaling like a beast. It makes my eyes water.

I try to do like 20-30% I guess. Alot of cigars I enjoy but some burn. But trying to retrohale when u cant blow out thru the nose just doesnt work. And the burn well tales forever to go away. Lmao I know im an idiot.

There are certain cigars I won't retrohale for sure. Some of them are pepper bombs and also some that are still young burn like an SOB. I think its the ammonia.

I think I'm immune to it. Only really spicy/peppery cigars get me these days. When smoking a pipe, I definitely exhale way more through my nose than my mouth. Just second nature really.

I think we've all learned this the hard way once or twice. I did that with about 90% of a draw from a Dirty Rat rott.... My eyes were watering for a good 10 minutes

When I first started smoking cigars I tried retrohaling a Tatuaje Fausto, and accidentally inhaled a huge mouthful of smoke.

Fairly certain I was legally dead for a few minutes...

I enjoy retrohaling! It can defiantly get a little tricky with the strong stuff!

I retrohale almost every time. You guys are just smoking the wrong stuff.

It was less about what what I was retrohaling but more the sinus infection and the sinuses maybe tender do to the nasal spray etc lol

Thanks for the tip!

Try retroing the Taa Cy B lancero if you want to know what its like to be bear maced.

I would recommend not smoking at all when you have any sort of respiratory illness. I can't see that it would be good for your recovery and would assume you're not getting much flavor from the cigar either.

I've tried everything and just can't get the hang of it. It's never been pleasant, I've never picked up any other flavors.
