Default Re: Who else smokes a box per week?

I usually smoke one a day during the week and a couple on Saturday. However, if I have a BBQ comp to go to the count goes WAY up. This week I left on Thursday night and got back on Sunday morning. I smoked 11 sticks in that time. A little more than normal, but I sure did enjoy them!!

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.

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.

Smoke it on a full stomach


I think the one handed out at the RTDA show was the special blend. Only Litto knows what the blend is, and he won't tell. It's not available for sale beyond the LFD sampler (purchased at LFD events) or the 5-pack figurado/perfecto box.

Hella good smoke, I wish I could get my hands on a box or two.

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.

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

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

Generally one a day, two at the most on work days. So far, the most I've smoked on a day off is five. So I guess I'd get close during a week I didn't work.
