Greetings folks - 44 year old guy here new to the cigar hobby - after 25 years of smoking cigarettes (yikes, that's a long time).

Question - how many cigars on average do you all smoke. I am thinking that no more than six a week would be a moderate amount. Am I in the right ball park?

Also, do any of you all smoke both cigarettes and cigars? I am still stuck at about four cigarettes a day - primarily in the morning and afternoon at work. Luckily, I typically only smoke a cigar in the evening.

Thanks,

Oh between 20-25 a week.
Yuck cigarettes.
Smoke more cigars

1 a day sometimes 2 (except on weekends when all bets are off)

Welcome jmvfrva. The question of how many are smoked was asked earlier in the following string.

I have never smoked cigarettes and never would. Can't really stand the smell of them. I do about 2-4 cigars a day, though. My wife is starting to "try" them out once in a while because she is so curious about what it is I like so much.

Anywhere from one to eight. So the average is around twenty-eight per week. CBid favorite customer.

6 to 8 a week, heaviest on the weekends. Less in the winter, more in the summer. You can count how many cigarettes I've smoked in 43 years on one hand and have fingers left over. No comparison between the two. Cigars are to tobacco what wine is to grapes. Welcome to club!

i believe you said a week. that is more of my daily intake. i stop when i sleep.

Clearly, I am the lightweight in this group - about 1 per week for me.

welcome to the crew.

I smoke a moderate amount. My norm is 5-7 a week. This last week was heavier. 2-3 a day, mostly because the wife was out of town so my honey-do's decreased.

I smoked cigarettes, weaned myself off them with Skoal. I a am weaning myself off that with cigars. I will probably wean myself off cigars with heroin.

I have never smoked cigs 🙂

I am up to about 3-4 a week depending on whats going on. It can be up to 6-8 if I go out. But my amount is going to drop off since I have found some work for now 🙂

Aloha jm,
I too am a newbie that had ideas of how much i was going to smoke a week... i was thinkin maybe 2 or 3 a week, but i am now at about 10 to 12 a week, and down to about a half pack of cigarettes a day. Welcome to the insanity, make yourself at home.

Welcome to the group.

I'm usually good for 2-4 per week. More during summer. I allow the time and enjoy each cigar to the fullest...

Low

Usually 6 per week...but can have 3 or 4 in one golf outing....

Welcome aboard...

Smoke 'em if you got 'em and if you stick around here long you'll certainly start to acquire quite an inventory. Welcome aboard.

I'm somewhere between 10-14/week.

hmm, 2-4 a day x 7 = 14-28 per week. Damn, this is expensive!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL:o)

Happy Herf`n

Lowman, you shocked me! I would have thought you smoked many more, nothing like Rick.......Nobody smokes as many as Rickamaven! I smoke at least one per day and on weekends-hard to say so a good week will include 14 to 30 cigars!

Charlie

Lets see 6-8 per day X 7 days in a week = just a min got to get my socks off here. Hmmmm ya 42-56 per week...Dang good thing me in the business or couldn't afford it..I stopped cigs 2 years ago and I do not inhale the Cigars I also threw away my chew can..Welcome aboard and GOOD LUCK on kicking the Cig habit..The Cigars really helped me I haven't wanted a Cig at all for the last 6 months,before that the cravings would get pretty bad but I went COLD TURKEY when I stopped, never do that again. hahahahah, TinMan

I would guess maybe 10 - 15. Mornings with coffee and evenings with a single malt and maybe a couple of times a week at the very nice cigar lounge at Ruth's Chris steakhouse across the street from my office. Other than that I only smoke outside so the number varies with the weather.

I used to enjoy 1-2 isoms per week for a few years. Started buying from C-bid 2 years ago, when I started smoking a couple of C-bid smokes per week and a couple of isoms on the weekend. Now that the price of isoms have doubled in Edmonton, I smoke 3-6 C-bid smokes per week and lucky if I have a cheap $26 isom once per month. Can't wait to visit the Island and stock up, 2 boxes for me and 2 boxes for my wife = 4 boxes for me.
