How many cuban cigars smoke in a week ? And wich brand you prefer?
habanaman
I think I average about .0000000000000001 per week. :smiley20:
about 10, just kidding
10-15
The brands I prefer are:
San Cristobal
Saint Luis Rey
Ramon Allones
Quintero
Quai d'Orsay
Vegas Robaina
EDIT* (I had originally posted "15-20" but I've cut back from where I was earlier in the year) :smiley17:
CC prefers smoke over air.
My average is up there with Quiet C's
5-7 a week. Usually a Hoyo De Monterry Petite Robusto or the Double Corona, Partagas # 2 or 4, Montecristo #2 or the Edmundos.
I'm not a heavy smoker by any means. My moto is "Less is more" in the sense that as I cannot afford to smoke cubans every day I tend to save my hard earned cash for a treat once every two to three weeks. This invariably mean a trip to Casa del Havano in Soho for either a Cohiba siglo iv or Montecristo (big gauge).
Washed down with a mojito of course......... Damn it's only 9.52 AM and I'm salivating already!!! Not good! :smiley26:
On a normal week I will smoke 2 cigars, generally smaller vitolas in the winter. At the moment that means a Fonseca KDT Cadete or a Perla / Minuto of some variety (SCdH Principe, RASCC), the Cuaba Divinos are also good for cold days.
When it gets warmer the regular cigars get a little bigger, say a corona or robusto or similar, then the regulars are JlP, Ryj, Punch, Bolivar and whatever is in the humidor.
I save things like Monte#2, Partagas SD4/SP2 and other big hitters for special occasions.
As for favoured brands at the moment that would be:
Montecristo (#2 / Edmundo only)
Partagas
Punch
Ramon Allones
San Cristobal
Jose L Piedra
Fonseca
The last two are there because they are terrific value for money.

I really like Partagas and would reccomend them, just bear in mind that they do need a bit of age on them.
When I can
Haven't tried enough to have a favorite.
He actually imports his air from Cuba, too...Quote:

My favorites of these are the Monty #2 , Siglo III and the R Y J Petit corna . They are a little hard to come by though . :smiley37:
if lucky, one a week. I have a cab of party shorts on the way for my buyer's club (meaning 10 for me) so I should be smoking a little more!
before a couple of months ago, it was maybe one a month. now, i smoke about 3 a week.
Quintero Brevas are cheaper than smoking gas station cigars.Quote:

Diplimaticos #2 is deeeeelicous !
I don't smoke so many - probably 2 or 3 a month if I'm lucky.
I like the Partagas Series D No 1 - bags and bags of flavour, nice and strong.
Also like the Monte #2 (of course), siglo IV (pretty good), siglo VI (superb), Cohiba Robustos are great, but the best of the best is the Sublime EL 2004. Ohhhhhh, I would smoke one every day if I could afford it.
Got some RyJ Hermosa No 2 EL 2004 in the cooler and some Churchills, but haven't tried them yet.
In the smaller vitolas, I got some San Cristobal El Principe in the coolerdor too, but yet to try them.
Actually, now that I list them, there are looooads of Cuban brands I haven't even tried yet. Makes it an easy Christmas present for someone....
What's 5 divided into 18 years? :smiley36:
1-2 per week.
Hard to say a specific favorite brand... definitely favorite vitolas with-in certain marcas.
Brands I gravitate to most:
Partagās
Cohiba
Bolivar
Romeo y Julieta
"Le Hoyo" portion of the HdM line
I do enjoy others but as far as multiple boxes, and a range of vitolas, those are the most prominent in my stash.
