I'm sorry , but I figure a cigar is done when it is done... I usually try to enjoy as much of a stick as I can, but I don't go burning my fingers unless it's really worth it. There were some nice nubs in that lot too! A La Aurora Pref., Padron Anny, etc, etc... I think I heard a quote from Zino Davidoff about this... Didn't he say that a gentleman only smokes the first half of a cigar, & only a brute smokes more??? :ss
Heck, I think your nubs are probably better than my every day cigars
