I should smoke them, but I never get a chance to and none of my friend smoke.

I have something like 7 Partagas Series D No. 4 and 6 Montecriso No. 2

I'll find an occasion one of these days. Thanks for the info.

Monte #2s are good, but might be a bit strong, so if you're in need of a good cleaning out, you can smoke one of them.

Bring them down, i'll supply the scotch. (nothing under $120 a bottle)

Doesn't one need to inhale cigars to enjoy them? :sick:

I've only smoked one of the #2's before. Takes a looong time! But I guess that's part of the enjoyment.

I read in a cigar magazine once about how Americans tend to keep the cigar label on to show off what they're smoking whereas in Europe, it's a faux pas to do so. Any cigar conoisseurs want to confirm or deny this?

As was previously mentioned we have had the ban in Scotland for over a year.

Personally I,
Go to the pub less.
Smoke more when out anywhere.
Don't stink of smoke as much when I come home even though I'm a smoker.
Notice how badly some places smell.
Also notice bodily odours of people in pubs.

The Z4 has always been a smoke free zone anyway!

I support a smoke free environment (I am a non-smoker). However, I believe that it is not the government that should decide.

I always remove the bands.

I only smoke outside (sometimes in the car, but only top down...)
When I've been smoking, I tend to stay away from others for a while.

Cigarettes drive me nuts due to the propensity of the cigarette smoker for throwing the dang butts everywhere. Had one bounce off my windshield the other day.

I can smell a cigarette smoker right away. Even though I reek of cigar often enough, I don't like the smell of cigarettes. After 8 months, i'm still trying to rid my car of the smell of cigarette smoke on a hot day. The woman that owned it before me must have had one or two a day in the car. I've gotten most of it out, but it's still there on a hot day after the car has been closed up for a bit.
