I am just now stopping smoking (for two weeks). my my...uggg. I know several of our campers that like a cigar at the end of the evening while relaxing. Some of them are great smelling too.

Talking A couple

I only smoke (puff) a couple a year, but there's not much better in my mind than a good cigar, a glass of scotch or a whiskey sour while relaxing by a campfire in the great outdoors. I quit smoking 25 years ago but cigars were never addicting to me. Man now I'm going to have to get a whiskey sour and go sit on the back porch and watch for Sasquatch running through my woods. See what you guys did!!!!!

I would recommend you seek out a nicely fermented Nicaraguan Puro in the 6x50 size to go with that whiskey sour. Enjoy

JRTJH -

It was Hemingway that supposedly brought the six-toes cats to Key West. They are also referred to as "Hemingway Cats". (Yes, I know, this has nothing to do with smoking cigars. Sorry.)

Arturo Fuente makes a line of very good cigars in honor of Hemmingway. Pricey but very good.

I am a 2 a day cigar smoker and my choice is whichever one I grab first outta the humidor. Love a nice single malt along with a evening cigar but that is only every few months or so.

Smoked in the last TT up to my girlfriend moving in with me and then that came to a screeching halt, and honestly,will not be smoking in the new one. Just built a nice little deck off the main door that I can go sit on a stool if I have to have one during Nascar!

I smoke premium cigars but never indoors. One of my favorite camping activities is enjoying a good stogie by the campfire.

I also like a nice cigar and a cold beer by the campfire when camping and on our patio a home sometimes also. My wife enjoys them as much as I do or more.

Cigar smoking and cigarette smoking are two different animals. I never was a cigarette smoker, but have enjoyed good cigars since the college years. Other than sitting on my own front porch, camping is one of the few places left where I feel free to enjoy relaxing with a good cigar (and appropriate adult beverage) - heck! If you have a camp fire going, how can you complain about a cigar?

On a side note - my wife is Canadian, and we travel up there at least once a year, and I am always disappointed with the Cubans. Years ago they definitely had the edge, but nowadays I think the Central American guys have caught up and produce a superior stick. Just my opinion, and I admit a prefer a medium strength, light draw smoke over some of the full bodied smokes out there.

If you see us in the campground (and we spend a lot of time in Florida), stop by and we will light one up!

I smoked up a bunch of good cigars last week camping. Averaged 3+ a day.

I like the Don Diego PRIVADA NO. 2 at the end of the camp day along with frosty beer.... Great way to wrap up a day.
