Sure sure!

The trick there is snacking on neutral things (I like peanut butter and crackers) and drinking plenty of water in between smokes, and also making sure you don't smoke two similar sticks back to back. All of those were ordered (not in my list, but during the day) so that they alternated flavors, profiles, and strength so that I could enjoy each one.

To be honest, I smoke that many a day normally, but it wasn't always that way. It's all part of the job, having a lit cigar on me at all times, but I didn't start that way...my early days 2-3 were PLENTY. Past that, I would get sick. These days, I can tolerate quite a bit more, so I smoke a bit more. Also I learned as I smoked and got to know more cigars, which ones I could alternate between to keep myself for getting a burnout experience.


To every man his own for sure. I only smoke that many because it's the job. Otherwise I'd still be on 2-3 a day on average, and I certainly wouldn't have access to so many higher dollar sticks to smoke freely like that. It's a plus of the job, not my personal way of life.

Those Esteban Carerras are an RP blend. I have burned through SEVERAL boxes of them. I love both wrappers but the maduro is my favorite. I just wish they weren't out of the Churchill maduro!!!

Yeah, my throat gets dry and unhappy after about 3 cigars in a day.

I had a Coronado By La Flor $8 and a St. Louis Rey that was gifted to me by Mr. Moo during a herf here in North Carolina. I would have had another sometime today, but I'm pulling medical coverage out in the woods for a bunch of Ranger candidates so I didn't have access to my humidor. I've lived off of 5 sticks out here for the last 20 days. I can't wait to get home, in my own queen sized bed instead of this damn army cot.

Dude, people pay me just to watch me smoke....it's an art-form, or poetry-in-motion as some may say.

I just roll up bills too smoke.

Then I pay those bills online and light up a Garcia Y Vega because I have no more money and want to save my better cigars for a herf.

I have just lit up my fourth cigar today.

As for today's monetary value: priceless...

...after having had to endure smoking pipe for six days last week whilst waiting for my cigars to arrive.
