Hand rolled cigars - hygiene issues?

[patrickspark]

perhaps thats why Sir Winston dipped his in cognac !

Quick bit of dettol around the cap and you're laughing! The exceptionally hot buring thing at the other end should kill all the other germs.

i dont care (reaches towards humi)

[Zigatoh]

hmmm, not to up on the subject but the common stuff like colds and flus I think only last for up to 48 hours on a surface so no worries there, MRSA however... months

Fantastic...he certainly loved his smoking jokes - both him and Dennis Leary were the ultimate 'smoke, drink and red meat' comedians.

Thigh High!

...are there only female rollers?

Don't know...don't care. But given a choice, I'd prefer to have my stick rubbed on the thigh of a lady.

5) CUBAN CIGARS ARE ROLLED BETWEEN THE THIGHS OF VIRGINS
South African cigar expert Theo Rudman addresses this hoary old legend in his on-line magazine. ?It is a lovely idea,? he writes, ?but alas is a legend that has persisted since the mid-forties, when a visiting journalist saw tobacco leaves being sorted and graded by women who placed the respective piles on their laps.? The visitor apparently took some imaginative journalistic license when he later wrote that Havanas were rolled on the thighs of virgins. Certainly, this story hasn?t hurt the mystique-laden marketing of Habanos. ?Yes, they would stretch the leaves on their uncovered skin, but to roll a cigar on one?s leg - you cannot do that,? Borhani says with a snicker. ?I challenge anyone - man or woman - to put bunched tobacco on their thigh and roll a successful cigar.?

Hey BB! What the fk are you talking about?

Haha. Instantly made me think of a Bill Hicks quote, although originally regarding cigarettes, I think you'll agree it works better with Cigars

"It is hard to quit smoking. Every one of them looks real good to me right about now. Every" Cigar "looks like it was made by God, rolled by Jesus and moistened shut with Claudia Schiffer's pussy" - Bill Hick's

A nieve question..

Do cigar factories have strict rules on personal hygiene for cigar rollers? I'm sure if someone had something bad on their hands then this would still be present when the cigars go to the smoker?
