'Don't smoke more than half the cigar'!! Spoken like a man with money to burn...

That's the game we're playing in unfortunately!

Seems like two a week is a sweet spot for a few of us. I'll try sticking to it for as long as possible but I do love that hour to unwind in the evening so will see how I go!

It's a cliche I know- but winter drawing in and a pre xmas health kick has put a stop to my daily cigar. I have cut back to two a week and have to say I am enjoying the flavours more. Also I am taking my time and thinking more about what I am smoking. It's certainly made me think about how smoking less may, paradoxically, mean I get more enjoyment from the hobby (habit?).

Am keen to know how often other forum members light up?

Yes....the less I smoke, the more I enjoy....palate burnout/too much nicotine etc. I now smoke a monty purito a day...just one a day and enjoy it far more.

If in a warmer climate it’s often 2- 3 a day, however having spent most of this year in Blighty 3-4 a week while the weather is warm enough.

As I can’t stand the stagnant smoke smell the house developes with indoor smoking my consumption dwindles to almost zero in the winter months as sitting outside freezing my rear end off isn’t very appealing.

Why aren’t there more cigar lounges in the UK? I love Boisdales but can’t afford it twice a week.

Totally agree Jerry, but Boisdales Belgravia is still outside (albe it pretty sheltered by the surrounding buildings & with a roof, heaters & blankets. At my local cafe in Belgium, there is a glass house inside that I can smoke in comfort & peace; well obviously B.C. Before Covid, it's now closed because of social distancing, although I'd say realistically it's big enough for two, there are two large tables in there after all but even when I asked if I could go in there if I was the only one they still declined & I guess rightly so. There are still those who would close these glass houses down, even though only smokers go in there & the extraction means the staff can go in 10mins later & be perfectly safe.
