I was being sucked into this pattern in the beginning, but I prevented myself from falling into it. I don't keep any cigars for a special occasions . Every moment is a special occasion for me, and I don't get sucked into the hype of new a limited release cigars unless I tried them, and I know I like them.

I'm with Vin on this, though my "occasion" cigars aren't nearly as meaningful as what he has. For example, I like to get my hands on 2 camacho liberties a year, and my wife and I smoke them on July 4th. I like getting my hands on the 2 Tat Monster series, and we smoke those on Halloween after the kids are in bed. I smoke all I get, but I do "collect" certain cigars for certain days.

Blowing Smoke Rings

I see some of these humidors stacked with cigars and I can only think "I could never do that." I guess I have ADD when it comes to cigars I can't stock up just not my thing. Would I love to have a huge stock of thousands...maybe, but realistically I would probably just smoke through them all and call it a day. I guess every cigar I have is an occasion cigar as well as an everyday smoke.

Obviously, as a finance person, I'd suggest against doing so if the disposable income isn't present.

Plus for me I know I will probably be forced into a buying hiatus once the baby arrives so I might as well stock up now. Not to mention I see you only have 4 posts so sit back, relax because it is a slippery slope. I too had your thought process once. That thinking is long gone now. ![]() ![]() ![]()

I can identify with this even after only a year or so smoking cigars (maybe 4 months of aging). As I have a few romeo y julietta (dom.) that I just will not touch till they're ready. I have no earthly idea when that is but I can only imagine how long I'd let an opus X or LP flying pig sit before giving them a light.

I don't have a lot of Opus. I do have enough that if I smoke them everyday I'll either get sick, or sick of them. If I ate steak everyday it might get old. I have a bunch of steaks in the freezer right now but I had some awesome Ribeye on Sunday so I don't feel like steak. I feel like a burger so I want to go out and get a chuck ground fresh so I can cook some burgers. Just because I have a bunch of steaks doesn't mean all I want to do is eat steaks. I stocked up on a few here and there when I saw nice sales. Just because I have a decent amount of Opus doesn't mean I want to smoke one everyday. When I see them on sale, here and there, I pick some more up if I can so I don't run out. This is true for many of the sticks I buy.

Hmmm... that's not quite what I meant. I didn't mean to smoke them all the time. I meant I don't wait around if I feel like smoking one of the more expensive sticks.
![]() I hear ya on the steak. I too made awesome ribeyes on Sunday. Although tonight I'm thinking chicken something or other. Scored BOGO boneless/skinless chicken breasts at the grocery store, and gonna put them to good use ![]()

Never made it before. Thanks for the idea. I'll look up a recipe right now!
Ribeye is my favorite cut, though I only buy it when it's on sale. The last ones I bought were 7.99 a pound.

All of mine are fair game...'cept the Oliva blue silk...that will be done in when I have the perfect combination of time, environment, and mindset to sit and enjoy it... out on the deck on a balmy windless night, after the wife and kids have gone to bed...
Not necessarily a 'special occasion, just a time where I can appreciate the rare cigar- since it will likely be my last of that particular make and model.

Probably my septic tank by now.
Funny thing is, they turned out so awesome, that I did almost take a couple pics.
