Are you a collector or are you a smoker?

I like to think I am a smoker, but until we start seeing consistent warm temps, I'm stuck as a collector. I don't really smoke in my house, so my options are limited.

I'm a recovering "collector" who's slowly but surely amending his ways
and becoming a smoker!

I am a smoker, but do feel sort of a sense of loss when I smoke the last cigar from from an irreplaceable box.

If you get into the "aging thing" and stay interested in the hobby long enough, it's only natural to "put some away" to experience the natual evolution of a particular cigar/cigars as they age.

It's been 6 years since I bought my first NC. Have spent bank on vintage cigars but the vast majority of cigars I own were fresh on purchase.

My evolving theory is that there is a crossover point where the purchased vintage that I more than not smoke now evolves to smoking cigars that I have personally aged.

I guess what I'm saying is my goal is to become Derrek.

A worthy goal indeed.
