I don't have too many people gifting me cigars, because I'm basically an @sshole. But on the occasions that I've had somebody hand me sticks, and there are some included that aren't what I'd smoke...I just tell them on the spot. I thank them for their generosity, and suggest that they hold onto whatever sticks I know I won't smoke.
If it's a bomb...then it's a different story. I have a hard time parting with something that was given to me. So if there are sticks included in a bomb that aren't what I prefer...they'll go into my 100 count desktop humi for safe keeping...until the day I'm open minded enough to try something different, or somebody visiting chooses it out of that humi.
Sending them to the troops is the best use of cigars you know you won't smoke, in my opinion.
