Maybe we can get a couple of the cigar makers involved here. Does draw testing really tell anything? I have had several cigars lately that supposedly are draw tested, where two cigars from the same box are 100% opposite. One may have what I would call a good draw. Another is so plugged it is not smokable. They came from the same box and in some instances were packed right next to each other. These are not junk cigars. They are from the major manufacturers.

If the cigars are draw tested, and the bad ones supposedly are not sent on for boxing, how can you get such varied results out of the same box? Is the draw system flawed? Does it not really test the cigar in a manner similar to how it is smoked?

Are the cigars tested without caps? If so, then you could get a more accurate reading on how the air flows through the cigar. If it is capped before testing, is the test really showing anything at all worthwhile?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I have seen articles that said the draw testing was done before the capa was added. Also, some have said that draw testing may not be performed on 100% of production but just used as a QC sampling.

TG will be along to give his usual Master's dissertation I'm sure.

No Worries. Only Virgins roll cigars on their thighs. I'm sure the same ones test them as they roll.

I guess some suck harder than others.

Thanks for the real comments DED. Are either Nick or Rocky out there anywhere to help out with an answer, although maybe they are too smart to get signed in on this one? Maybe anyone from the former CAO crew who may know?
