Question humidor full of singles, now what!

So now I have a problem... thanks to a kickoff shove down the slopes from the massholes, followed by having way way WAY too much fun in the TPC humidor at the cinci herf last week... and now my own meager sized humidor is full of sticks.

The problem is they are all SINGLE sticks, and I havnt tried ANY of them before. I'd love to bomb 1/3 of them away... but which ones if I havn't tried any of them before? ... and I refuse to get a new humi, since the size of my current one is the only thing keeping me "sliding down the slope", instead of "free-falling down a bottomless pit!!"

so um, damn you bastages for this, I'm blaiming it on you!

I would suggest that if you're new to the game you smoke all those singles and don't worry about the bombing quite yet. I'm sure these were given to you with the intent to build your knowledge.

I think Icantbejon is right, try them all out and see what your tastes are.

But limited time offer: I'll smoke them for you and tell you if they are good or not

Smoke 'em bud. I know what you are going through though. 90% of my collection is singles. When I bomb someone, I only give out cigars that I have tried before and like.

Buy some more, it will force you to do something about your storage situation.

Smoke 'em. I always thought it was bad form to "re-gift" a smoke that someone had given me. My bombs are always 100% illinoishoosier originals.

Played Cigar Tetris, already got the highest possible score

well taken. I should clarify that I do not re-gift cigars (I tend to agree it is rather poor form), however PLENTY of those sticks are purchased, making them fair game so anything I send is still orginal.

"Smoke em"
...easier said than done... I'm limited in how many a week I can smoke - its friggin cold out, and I don't have a man cave!

as for herfing... that always seems to be counterproductive.... herfed at cinci last weekend and went to The Party Source first... -OOPS- came back with another dozen more than I could fit! (for anyone thats never been there, stay away! That place is evil I tell you, EVIL! )

Thanks for the umm, generous offer. Good thing we all have individual tastes


yep folks, I know the only real answer to the question is to smoke em faster.... .... damn this slope!
