Default Does anyone date their cigars...

... before they put them in their humi? How do you remember how long they have been resting? I have thought about doing this, but was wondering if anyone else does.

I know several people do this, mostly becuase I have been bombed with cigars that have dates written on thier cello.

No, but I make sweet love to them.




Most cigars, no. If I can't remember when I got them, they're ready to smoke.

I band all my cigars with the date, what it is, and who it is from if trade/bomb. Kinda makes the smoke more fun if I know who gifted it to me.

Default Re: Does anyone date their cigars...

I do on most cigars. It helps me remember how old they are so that if I sell them, I can say "This cigar has 'x' much age on it"

I also write who I got it from.

Default Re: Does anyone date their cigars...

Nope, I toss them in the humi and smoke them when I want to. Although, I probably should start putting dates on them, and if someone gives them to me, I should probably do my best to remember who it was

I keep a notebook of acquisitions, departures, and tasting notes. Strictly pencil and paper right now but someday hope to computerize it (but probably will never happen).

Default Re: Does anyone date their cigars...

Like most rappers, I haven't had an original idea in years. When I started getting dated sticks in bombs and trades, I started dating mine, usually on the tail of the cello. Now, I'm going to steal another idea from this thread and start adding usernames as well.

This is what I use. I'm very meticulous about the dates, OCD or something. When someone gives me something and don't inclued a date I just use the date I recieved and age accordingly. Mind you this is all NC stuff, I think my head would explode if I was in the dark side
