Default winter smoking? yep stupid question, carry on

this will be my first winter smoking cigars, wow nood moment, anyways living in an army barracks means im forced to smoke outside and its...well...20 before the windchill. call me a sissy but its to cold for me to sit down and smoke for 2hours outside. I can sometimes get out to the shop 2times a week average. what am i to do? this not smoking is killing my stress levels.

Any advice guys?

Yeah I agree, it's 18 degrees out. I'm not smoking, as far as stress levels well that's why there's alcohol .

Toughen up and take it like a man. Just joking. Go with smaller sticks like Mac said and bundle up. The cold has never stopped me. Slowed me down yes, but not stopped me.

This time of the year its below 0F mostly everyday where I live. I have yet to work up the nerve to go outside for a cigar. Maybe when it gets to about 10-20F on a random day i'll have one lol.

OK... first of all, I know you can get on my arse 'cause I have the Gator Cave to smoke in. However, for a Florida boy it gets cold out here for me. Right now it is 53 in here. I keep the door open outside some, but either way I have an electric space heater facing me that keeps things pretty toasty. It works for me whether I have a short smoke or a longer one.

I see your predicament, cigarettes would be my next go to. Although if you don't already smoke them I wouldn't start. Assuming you don't......ummmm I think you're SoL.

There's probably quite a few 30 minute smokes, fuente short story comes to mind. Also you could just buy a box of budget smokes and smoke as much of them as you can before tossing the rest out and not worrying about it.

A good winter coat, an awesome hat and then: petit corona, machine made smaller sticks, go for a good ride in your car, and then the shop.

Cohiba Clubs are my favourite choice. Then I would get a heater, Canada Goose jacket and 4 fingers worth of scotch.

Illusione 68s are good and small, but wow, 20 degrees is cold. When your'e 21 get some Crown. It's in the low 50s here right now and I don't even want to go to the garage and smoke. I would do all I could to get to the cigar store more than 2x a week.
