Am I crazy, or do many of you keep a "candy box" filled with flavored/infused cigars, light and mild cigars, and your dog rockets for pre-pubescent noobs?

I keep a nice looking 25 count box with that stuff in it for my son, SIL, their friends and other guests who are actually impressed by that "collection." Most are not regular smokers and it doesn't hurt when they snuff a stick after burning about an inch.

uh, well, umm...

normally, I smoke the "candy" stuff.

I have been working into the milder stuff though...

Oooops. Sorry Mrs. Tank, didn't mean to imply that you are a pre-pubescent noob. My sincerest apologies. Feel free to dig around in my candy box, and I'll warn you off the dog rockets.

......You can win a sweet 25 count ASHTON box here any night merchandise closes for $10 or less. Won 2 last night for $7per. Also won an ACID 20 count for $7. That may suit the smokes you say you want to store.

Yes, have to. I have numerous friends that love to think they are cigar smokers. So stock up on $1 sticks and hand them out when we meet up for beers on occasion. I just can't let go of good sticks when they end up not finishing or understanding what they are smoking anyway. Every BOTL I know does this as well. It is a survival instinct.

Dozens of lines carry the label of good, average everyday cigar that are great in between your higher priced smokes. The cigar I am smoking now, the CARLOS TORANO NOVENTA 6.5x54 Torpedo is a great tasting value lines cigar. Others sold at C.I. for a good price, and here for a great price are,

I don't smoke with friends who disrespect my sticks. I give away my best sticks when I get snockered. I like to show off. I had one ex-friend put a tat miami out half way. He has not been invited back.[ram27bat]

Those are your give aways? Then we need to go have a few beers so I can live off of the crumbs from your table. I would be giving away sticks just slightly better than the unsmokables. I wait for the Uber-deals on CI or CBID and I grab a couple bundles.

I do this but not to signify give away or trash. I do this to keep the infused cigars from mingling with my non-infused.

I use a couple C-Fest humis. One for DE Naturals and one mainly for Nitros, a less intense ACID knockoff with a tropical (banana, coconut, pineapple, vanilla, mango, etc.) flavor. Only smoke a couple of these a year, and usually on the beach.

Don't have any infused cigars. But I do keep my inexpensive smokes in a seperate humi. Just because I don't want them to beat down my better sticks.[ram27bat]

Yeh, Mike having "inexpensive smokes". Now that's funny.

Sorry to here about your lack of infused. I'll make sure to hit you with some flavored WOs, Nitros and ACIDs at our next herf, lol.
