    YES, I thought I was the only one LOL. I do the "wine sip" if the cigar is super peppery/rough in the retrohale - to kind of water it down like I would to a strong whisky.

    Also, I tend to retrohale more with smoother cigars. The pepperbombs tend to overwhelm my sinus and clog me up.

    Has anyone ever smoked a cigar where the retrohale was their main source of flavor?

    LOL, I remember a Halfwheel cigar review where they insisted the best flavors were only obtained through retrohaling, but for that specific cigar. I'll try to find the link and post it.

    Found it!

    "The retrohale on this blend is amazing: smooth, complex and rich with almost no spice or pepper to be had. If you don’t retrohale, you are wasting your money on this cigar."

    Added to the mile long list haha. Thanks!
    I believe the similar named Dondurma has a disclaimer on the box saying the cigar is made to be retrohaled. Actually have 1 of those on the way and im super excited to try it
