1) What is it... that I am
most looking for when I sit down to smoke a cigar?
Relaxation
2) What is it... that will most likely change my cigar choice/desired taste at any given time to select a cigar?
Time
3) What is it... that appeals to me most in my top 5 favorite cigars? (and maybe you list them and specify what it is in each that makes them most appealing)
Flavor
4) What is it... that most influences me to try a new cigar/marca?
my own curiosity
5) What is it... that makes my "go to cigar," the one I reach for when I don't want to seriously contemplate what I am getting from a particular cigar?
I have smoked so many I know what it will taste like and the time it takes to smoke it.
6) What is it... that makes your "special occasion cigar" so special?
The cost
7) What is it... that keeps "those" cigars out of my humidor, and even more so, out of my mouth?
Mostly it's past experiences with the brand. I will try most everything once or twice, and if it turns me off I don't tend to go back.
8) What is it... that you'd like to comment on in regard to this thread which reflects my preluding ponderings, but isn't reflected in the questions.
I don't have anything to add
