How Fast Do You Smoke???

AdamJoshua · 02-04-2014, 08:04 PM

At home alone I tend to smoke a bit faster, 30 seconds between drags or so, that being said I'll put the cigar down to do some work and more often than not I will end of having to light it again and again, when herfing it depends, but I tend to slow down due to all of the conversations and things going on.

I used to smoke way to slow and had trouble keeping lit. I still prefer to smoke on the slow side but not that bad anymore.

But, in the last year i seem to be going fast, rushing, feeling like i have to hurry for some reason. I think my wife has made me feel guilty for taking so much time for just myself.

I plan to be more deliberate to enjoy it.

In fact, about 5 am in the morning im planning on a long smoke before bed (day sleeper)
Depending on the weather that is. May be shoveling the foot of snow,they say we are to get tonight.

I used to smoke fast like you for many years but have change my routine up quite a bit now. I puff every 30 - 60 seconds while taking longer but steady inhales. I find the smoke cooler and more flavorful this way. I can pick up more flavor notes now than i used to. I find I enjoy the experience more now. I used to think quantity not quality but things have changed drastically for me now. I've gone from 6 - 7 cigars a day down to 3 - 4 and I'm enjoying it far more than I ever used to. It's also a huge money saver along with allowing more time to age my cigars. Just my
