I would love to see you use a holder! I too think it's very neat! I don't notice a difference in the taste. Having said that, I only smoke my long More 120s in my long 9" brown holder, so I haven't smoked a More without my holder in years. I have noticed that the draw is very smooth and very thick. After a long drag, I always notice the smoke wafting out of the tip of my holder. I think it enhances the taste of my More 120s. I have noticed some looks as I smoke my long brown More 120 with my long brown holder but they're all smiles as they watch me using it.

What brand do you smoke? Have you ever tried More 120s? If I were there, I'd love to share a pack of More 120s with 2 long brown holders and see how you like the look and taste.

I have been meaning to ask you about you using a holder.
I haven't seen anyone use one. I did for a while when I restarted. I kind of thought it was neat.
What is the difference to you in the taste and draw between using a holder and not?

It is. But, I think smoking 120s is not only enjoyable, but should be an enjoyable act for all to see. I use a holder because I like the length, style, and elegance. I wish more people used them. A number of years ago, I pulled into the parking lot of a furniture store and was smoking my long brown holdered More finishing it before going in. A lady in the car next to me got out and came over inquiring about my holder. She said she would love to have one in that color(brown) and length(about 9"). She gave me her email addr and I sent her the link to where I purchase my holders. I never did hear back from her, but in my years of using my holder, that was the only inquiry of someone wanting one. I always get looks, compliments when I'm in public using it.
