How long?

RevSmoke · 09-30-2011, 05:56 PM

I usually smoke the first one 9 minutes off the truck, then 9 hours off the truck, then 9 days off the truck, then 9 weeks off the truck, then 9 months off the truck.

This is called the rule of 9s.

Of course this only holds true if I don't smoke any inbetween those particular times.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

I always smoke the first one right off the truck to see how well they've fared from the trip. The rest get smoked when I want to smoke them and don't pay much attention to storage time.

My rule of thumb is....... I don't want to die with vacation time or cigars left over.

Larry, Thanks for the rule of thumb.. I like it!

As I said before. I like to get 5ers so I can try them here and there.. as time goes on. Either ROTT, or a year from now and in between.

I was seeing if anyone, or how close we all did it. I can see how it is a personal preference.

I like the way Todd does math the rule of nine could definitely work...
