This IAMI GUEST accredited introduction into the world of cigars (GUEST U6) offers a sound theoretical and practical foundation into all aspects of this often-misunderstood luxury item. The insights gained allow candidates to know how to handle cigars confidently and take correct care of them. Understanding history and production methods, purchasing, correct handling, as well as what to do when a guest requests a cigar, are all skills taught in this module. We look at the most common brands of cigars, beverage pairing as well as how to cut, light and smoke (optional) a cigar.
