Burt & Max’s: Tips from a Pro – Vinny, Smoke Inn Delray

June 10, 2018   |   Events

Each quarter Burt & Max’s hosts a Cigar & Whiskey night with Smoke Inn Delray. If you haven’t dived into the world of cigars yet, we have some tips and tricks of the trade. Vinny, the owner of Smoke Inn shares his advice for new cigar smokers:

  1. Know that cigars are a social thing; people go to cigar shops for camaraderie and unwinding. 
  2. Do not inhale your cigars! You want your palate to taste all the subtleties of the different kinds of tobacco used in the making of that cigar.
  3. Don’t forget that you are holding a product that took a long time to create. In cases like a Perdomo cigar, from start to finish one cigar goes through 3,054 hands because they are a vertically integrated company.
  4. Dark cigars don’t always mean spice or pepper and light cigars don’t always mean bland or aerie.
  5. If you drink brown liquors, most of the time you can handle a fuller bodied cigar.
  6. Certain cigars typically pair well with brown liquors including whiskey, bourbon, rum and cognac. While others pair well with a fine wine.

Our next cigar night will be held in October. Find the latest updates at BurtandMaxs.com/events.
