ABSTRACT:
A portable cigar holder for rapidly extinguishing a lighted cigar and for saving the extinguished cigar for later consumption is provided. The cigar holder comprises a hollow cylindrical tube having a closed end portion and an open end opposed to said closed end portion and a removable cap sized to close the open end of the tube for forming a substantially air tight container so as to promote rapid extinguishing of the lighted cigar. The cigar holder includes a specially configured snuffer which snuffer is in the shape of a bowl with the open end of the bowl facing the open end of the cigar holder and which snuffer is readily slideable within the cigar holder. The cigar holder of the invention accommodates cigars of different lengths while minimizing the overall length of the cigar holder so that the holder may be comfortably carried by the cigar smoker. The snuffer is preferably connected to the upper end of spring means at a point above the base of the snuffer and the snuffer is configured so that when the snuffer is moved downward in the tube when a cigar is inserted in the holder the lower portion of the snuffer is disposed (nested) within the spring means and the overall length of the cigar holder needed is shorter than prior art cigar holders for holding the same length cigars.
