    I'll tear a cigar down on occasion, usually while hanging out in the hot tub. I'm no coniseaur or anything, but its always enjoyable when relaxing with a cold beer or whiskey.

    Well outside of the middle aged baby cartoonishness.... I used to love cigars too. But after I killed my cigarette habit the occasional cigar went too.

    DeAaron Fox is one of my top 3 favorite never-Blazers. Might be my favorite.

    I think I've got 17....? Let me check my list....

    Purchased on 05/09/2017:

    • Gispert Robusto

    • Fuente Robusto

    • Illusione 88 Maduro Robusto

    • Fuente Petit Cigarillos

    Purchased on 10/04/2017:

    • Blind Man's Bluff Toro 6x52

    • Gilberto Oliva Reserva Blanc Torpedo

    • La Aurora ADN Dominicano Robusto

    Purchased on 10/14/2017:

    • Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial Robusto

    • Perdomo Factory Tour Blend Torpedo Maduro

    • Arturo Fuente Hemingway Signature (the shorter of the two Hemingways I have)

    • El Rey del Mundo Natural Plantations Slim Panatella

    • La Palina Illumination Lancero

    • Tatuaje Miami Lancero

    Purchased on 12/14/2017):

    • My Father La Antiguedad Corona Grande

    • Tatuaje Black Petit Lancero

    • Don Pepin Garcia Vegas Cubanas Generosos

    • H. Upmann Vintage Cameroon 1844

    • La Aurora 110th Anniversary Corojo

    • La Aurora 110th Anniversary Cameroon

    I love me some Hemingways. Best cigar that Fuente rolls, IMO. My father is partial to the OpusX.....that's a bit too much cigar for me though. Both in price and flavor.

    As you can see, I need to smoke some and buy more. I think the last one I smoked was in September or so.

    Yeah, I imagine trying to kill a smoking habit will do that. My father just kicked the cigarette habit himself, and he's probably smoking his first cigar in over a year right now in Mexico while he's on vacation. Knowing him, it will be a Montecristo #2......in my opinion the best cigar ever to come out of Cuba.

    Thankfully, I never picked up a cigarette habit. Nicotine and alcohol aren't my addictive triggers, thank God. Last time I told my doctor about my cigar smoking, he waved me off. So if he's not concerned about it, then neither am I.

    I used to. Any time I had an excuse to go to Portland I visited Broadway cigars. (or that place on Alder downtown)

    I gave it up when I found out I was going to be a grandpa. I decided I had a reason to stick around for awhile! :cheers:

    I hate Broadway Cigars. I much prefer 82nd Pipe and Tobacco. They are a much more laid-back group of people there. Broadway is run by a clique of douchebags that won't even allow you to bring a cigar into their shop.

    Just my opinion.

    Being a grandpa is definitely worth dropping smoking for. Congratulations! :chestbump:
