Was addicted to cigars about 30 years ago. Did 5 per day for a few years. Fun while it lasted but won't be subjecting myself to that again. Quitting was physically painful.

I think that Fuente's are overrated.

That said, I dabbled in cigars back in the late 2000s. Haven't had one in at least 10 years.

Never felt more than anxiety from quitting cigarettes. Cigars was like an elephant sitting on my chest. It sucked donkey dick.

I used to keep thousands of $$$ worth of cigars between the humidors in my office and quarters when I was in afghanistan. Mostly used them to bribe lazy contractors to get extensions on temp orders so they would stay and finish their jobs. People would send all kinds of stuff in care packages and the aviation battalion had a climate controlled connex where we stored them. damn thing stayed full and we'd go grab boxes upon boxes and send them to the troops every time we did a convoy or the choppers flew the ring routes. Still had so much left over a few of us officers and the NCOs would go in once a week and look through the left overs.

Former smoker........before I quit for good, it was a pipe for years, then a few small cigarello's a day until I quit cold turkey.
I still smoke a little weed.

Wouldn't the late 2000 be like 2018 or 19 but you haven't had one in at least 10 years?
