i'd be pretty disappointed if i gave a friend a cigar and they gave it away.

I'm OK with re-gifting.
If I hook someone up with a cigar that is just not in their flavor profile, I want them to give it to someone who may enjoy it. Life's to short not to spread the wealth, so to speak.

On the other hand;
You sella my cigar I gift you, I breaka you legs, capish? :ss

Hey- if I give you a cigar- you can do what you want with it- it's yours now. I frankly don't have the time or inclination to check up on you and make sure that you don't regift it or sell it or whatever. ("you" in a general sense, Rev!)

I always appreciate every bomb or gifted cigar I get, but I have run into this problem myself. I took the stance of being sure to smoke each one and thank the giver, but found that at times, it just wasn't a good idea. I then began a new process. If I'm bombed with a cigar I never tried, regardless of manufacturer or prior experience with their wares, I'll smoke it and give it a fair shake, but if I have tried them, and don't like them, I never regift them per-se. I put them in my troop bombings. Kinda a "pay-it forward" type thing.

Also, is it OK if I go back and find the one I smoked there and re-gift that one also? Not to myself on this one if OK by you.

Please respond before my 6 pm flight out of here.
Did Tom re-gift that Gurkha I gave him back in 06 or 07? Smoke it in good health, my brother.

They are just cigars. It's the spirit in which they are given that matters. Troops, a good friend, a newbie, a new friend, a guy on the street that looks like he could use a day brightener? All good. When I fly, I like to tuck an extra couple in my traveldor for anyone in a uniform I might come across and just give them a smile, a nod, and a
"thanks for your service, if you don't smoke, I imagine you can pass it on to a fellow troop that could use a smoke."

In full disclosure.. I have to say that, I have gifted many more than a few dozen Gurkhas..;)
