Who else smokes a box per week? - Page 5

Silound · 11-09-2008, 10:50 PM

I'm with Shadow, Dave. I do 5-8 a day while at work at the shop, usually 4-6 on non-work days.

The real question is, what do you smoke that many of a day?

Typically I have at least two LFD Cabinet 500's in that count, along with an assortment of other sticks. I think the mildest one I smoke is my usual morning opener (Griffen's Robusto) while the fullest bodied stick I usually smoke is a Factory Press or LG Small Batch.

When I worked at the cigar shop in Hudson, I smoked 3-4 a day. Now that I have moved to Alaska, I am lucky to get 3-4 a month.

Warmer months I can get a couple in during the week at lunch and a couple on the weekend. Now that it's winter/cold out I will be fortunate to get 1 or 2 in per week.

I'm lucky if I can get 3 a week. If I can get through a 5'er over a week's period of time I consider that a major accomplishment.

GTsetGO · 11-10-2008, 09:20 AM

i get 1-2 in a week. that's about it.

Lucky_Hippo · 11-10-2008, 09:28 AM

I used to average about 3 a day, but for the last 6 months or so it's gone down to 5 or 6 a week. I actually think I can taste them better now that I give my pallet a rest every once in a while.

Now if I worked at a cigar shope, they'd find me dead with a lit cigar in each hand within the first month I'd smoke so much.

shemp · 11-10-2008, 09:35 AM

i have done about 4-6 in a day but after about 3 days of doing that i agree with Borndead1 that my toungue is like shrapnel and i cant tatse for a couple days, so i have slowed down to about 1-3 per day and tatse them much better...

I'm with you I'm afraid. Young baby, full time job where I can't smoke, I try to get in one or two during a football game on the weekend. This weekend got goose egged because of guests from out of town who couldn't be on time.

Tonight for MNF.

BlackIrish · 11-10-2008, 01:27 PM

Typically 4-5 a week -- a couple or three nights during the week after work, and one or two on the weekend. If I'm lucky or if I work from home one day, 6-8.

This past week I was traveling on business to Miami, which allowed me to smoke on my hotel balcony. Even so, managed only 2 a day, working them in around meetings.

Like some of the other inmates, I find that my palate suffers a bit if I consistently smoke more than two a day.

I think my wallet would suffer too!!!! I am lucky to get 2-3 a week this time of year and in the summer maybe 5-6.

K Baz · 11-10-2008, 03:02 PM

I am 2 - 3 a week on average usually all on the weekend during the summer.

In winter I am lucky to get one a month the lack of inside venues to smoke in and the chance of it being - 50 degree make it difficult. But on the bright side low risk for beetles.

I can't imagine how you would age cigars if I smoked one a week. Heck I can't imagine what the g/f would say if I bought a box a week.

I think I am at the "more than" a box a week level lately...is that a bad thing?

ConMan · 11-10-2008, 08:06 PM

I smoke at least one a day. Usually 3 a day on the weekend. I'd say I smoke a box every other week.

11-10-2008, 08:35 PM

One a day and two per day on weekends.

longknocker · 11-10-2008, 08:56 PM

I smoke 4-8/ week, Dave! More than 2-3/day, and they all seem to taste the same to me!

Not quite daily, but a couple a week definitely. Lately I've been smoking a lot of FP 3 though...they're some sexy sticks.

By myself: 2-3 on the weekend, a couple during the week.

With my brother-in-law fishing: 5-6 day.

At herfs, the sky is the limit.
