Retrohale Step-by-Step
1. Draw the Smoke: Take a gentle puff into your mouth only.
Do not inhale into your lungs.
2. Close Your Mouth
Keep the smoke inside your mouth. Let it rest for a second.
3. Gently Push Through the Nose
Slowly exhale the smoke through your nose using your nasal passage or diaphragm.
*Tips for Success
Start Mild: Choose a smoother, creamier cigar to begin. Partial Exhale: Let 70–80% out of your mouth first, then the rest through your nose.
Try the “Burp” Method: Like holding in a burp…push the air upward into your nasal passage.
Don’t Rush: You don’t have to retrohale every puff.
