What's a reasonable amount of cigars to have on hand?

Of course then I started smoking more cigars, realized boxes are cheaper in the long run, discovered the world of cigar forums, and started meeting the enablers that dwell on them.

Nowadays if I fell down to only 1000, I'd be seriously concerned.

Funny how our perceptions change.

I agree with Bill!

If I were a non-connected cigar smoker, that would be one thing but keeping up with bombs, trades, and Herfs makes it almost impossible to keep a reasonable collection.

If I went off the grid, I would think 500 would be resonable.
