Banish Ammonia Taste: How to Remove Imperfect Flavors from Cigars

Everything about cigars is designed to produce one thing - an experience. The growing, curing, sorting, fermentation, aging, rolling, and every other part of the cigar making process is aimed at producing a particular flavor profile in a hand crafted blend. But what is an aficionado to do when a cigar's flavor is tainted by an imperfection, like ammonia?

It's true that ammonia is a naturally occurring part of the leaf growing process. But it doesn't mean that anyone is stuck with ammonia flavor notes in a cigar. In this video, I'm sitting down with Brian, factory owner at Cavalier Cigars to talk about the process of creating a clean cigar experience. And what cigar lovers can do if that nasty ammonia taste ends up in the cigars in the home humidor.
