History of Black and Mild Cigars

Black and Mild cigars have been around since the 1960s when they were first manufactured. They’re named after their creator, Maurice Seymour, who went by the nickname “Black”. Seymour was a native of Jamaica and a former employee of R.J. Reynolds. He created Black and Mild cigars in order to fill a gap in the market for a mild and affordable premium cigar. Seymour’s cigars proved to be a hit, and they quickly became one of the most popular cigar brands in the United States.

Seymour’s cigars were made with a blend of Jamaican and Brazilian tobacco. They were also handmade, which made them more expensive but also ensured a better quality. In fact, Seymour’s handmade Black and Mild cigars are still being produced today. Other Black and Mild cigars are machine-made, though. They’re typically cheaper, but still, deliver a satisfying smoking experience.

Manufacturing Process

Unlike premium cigars, Black and Mild cigars are typically machine-made. This process involves feeding a blend of tobacco, cocoa, and/or other ingredients through a machine that cuts the leaves and rolls them into cigars. Once they’ve been cut and rolled, the cigars are allowed to ferment and dry out before being packaged and shipped out.

Once they arrive at the retailer, the cigars are stored in controlled temperature environments to prevent them from spoiling. This is because Black and Mild cigars don’t have a humidifier like premium cigars, so they’ll dry out quickly. If they dry out too much, the leaves will become brittle and break, causing the cigars to fall apart and become difficult to smoke.

Types of Black and Mild Cigars

Black and Mild cigars come in a variety of types and flavors, so there’s sure to be something for everyone. Let’s start by taking a look at the different types of Black and Mild cigars:

American Blend: American blend cigars are typically mild cigars that are flavored with natural oils.

American Vanilla: These cigars are usually made with a combination of Brazilian and Dominican tobacco. They’ve been flavored with vanilla, and come in a variety of wrapper colors, such as Connecticut and Connecticut Maduro.

Cherry: This is a classic Black and Mild cigar, with a delicious cherry flavor that’s sure to delight any smoker.

Types of Flavors

As well as the different types of Black and Mild cigars, there’s also a variety of flavors to choose from, so you can find a cigar that suits your tastes. Some of the most popular flavors include:

Apple: Just like they sound, these cigars have a flavor reminiscent of apples. They’re a refreshing addition to any smoking session, and they’re also a great choice for beginners.

Blueberry: Blueberry cigars are a nice change from the conventional flavors, and they also make a great gift for people who love Black and Mild cigars.

Benefits of Smoking Black & Mild Cigars

There’s a lot to love about Black and Mild cigars. They’re affordable, available in a variety of flavors, and are a great introduction to cigars for first-time smokers. They’re also easy to find and can be smoked quickly, so they’re also a good choice when you don’t have a lot of time. Black and Mild cigars have a mixed reputation in the smoking community, though.

On the one hand, they’re often considered to be a gateway cigars, leading people to try other, more potent cigars in the future. On the other hand, they’re typically mild, so they’re not likely to lead people to stronger cigars.

How to Smoke Black & Mild Cigars

When smoking Black and Mild cigars, you’ll want to make sure to do it properly. There are lots of ways to enjoy these cigars, but below are the most common methods:

Cigarillo: This method involves clipping one end of the cigar, placing it in your mouth, and drawing in the smoke through the other end. You’ll want to position the cigar between your lower lip and gum.

Cigar Puff: This method involves clipping the cigar, placing it between your lips, and puffing on it like a pipe.

Cigar Cut: This method involves clipping both ends of the cigar, placing it between your lips, and sucking in the smoke.

Cigar Hold: This method involves clipping both ends, placing the cigar between your lips, and holding it like a cigarette.

Tips for Enjoying Black & Mild Cigars

You can do a few things to ensure you get the most out of your Black and Mild cigars. Before you light up, make sure to cut the cigar with a sharp, clean cutter. This will help prevent the cigar from unraveling and ensure you get a smooth draw. Next, you’ll want to use a good cigar lighter to evenly toast the foot of the cigar.

This will seal the tobacco leaves and help them retain as much flavor and aroma as possible. Once you’ve puffed on the cigar, be sure to keep it at an appropriate length. Cutting the cigar too short will cause it to burn too fast while cutting it too long will cause the wrapper to burn too quickly and become too hot to enjoy.

The best way to tell if your cigar is ready to be put out is to look at the wrapper. If it’s darker than normal and starting to turn brittle, it’s time to end your smoking session.

Conclusion

Black and Mild cigars are a great choice for first-time smokers, and they can be enjoyed by all kinds of people. They come in a variety of flavors, so you can find a cigar that suits your tastes.

When smoking Black and Mild cigars, make sure to use a sharp cutter, gently toast the foot, and keep the length of the cigar in mind. These cigars are great for when you don’t have much time to spare, making them a good choice for when you’re on the go!

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace.
