No judgment. Well, maybe a little, but I went through a cheap chit phase. So, not much room to judge
Aaron never really got into cigar smoking. When he was in his 20's he tried a few now and then with me and friends but it wasn't ever his thing.
The rest of the order is a mixed bag. Oliva, La Gloria, Drew Estate, Alec Bradley, Man 'O War, Torano, Macanudo, CAO...
And a few cheapos for the freeloaders. Bahia, Mark Twain, Arganese...
I've kinda become the "guy with the smokes" in most of my circle of friends and quite often give out a cigar or three. Sometimes people will ask but usually I offer to share with anyone in the area. Chatting for a minute to determine if this person is really a cigar smoker or just looking to get "anything if it's free" will determine what I part with. I probably give away one for every two or three I smoke. I'm happy to share with fellow smokers or introduce someone new interested in trying it. And I don't mind the few who are interested only because it's "free."
Checking my orders here I bought 180 in March and 350 in April. I don't recall how many I had left when I placed those orders but I was pretty low. I'm guessing I have maybe 100-150 spread around the humidors now. A little math works out to 2 cigars a day more or less.
My smoking is cut back drastically when the cold weather hits up here in WI. Summer evenings I'll sit outside and have two or three. In the winter sometimes it'll be weeks between smokes.
