QUICK TIP: Occasionally you will run into a cigar that has a cracked wrapper. Maybe the wrapper cracked when you cut your cigar or maybe the cigar already had a cracked wrapper, either way this can adversely effect the performance of your cigar. Imagine trying to drink through a straw that had a hole in it. That hole would ruin the vacuum and therefore make the straw difficult to use. A cigar is the same way, if the wrapper is cracked it might be hard to to draw through it. One way to overcome a cracked wrapper is to carefully slide the cigar band over the cracked area of the cigar which can seal the crack just enough to save your smoking session.

Carefully move your cigar band over the crack holding the wrapper in place and sealing the smoke so that your draw is intact.
