View Full Version : Help me decide - I can't be an idiot again

I posted a thread Friday night detailing out the troublesome case of me being an idiot by smoking 2 cigars I had been waiting to try (Tat Black and Norteno) and I ruined them by smoking them so close to having had a cold. I got the cold either Tuesday or Wednesday and felt mostly better by Friday but my taste wasn't back and those two prime smokes I had been waiting months to try for the first time were ruined.

It's supposed to be a beautiful day in Upstate Indiana today and I am smoking something. Help me decide what to smoke. Another famous DogRockets poll is commencing!

You can choose between 4 cigars that I have. Two of them were gifted to me (you can probably tell which ones) and I have been previously avoiding smoking them. Perhaps today is the day? The other two are sticks I enjoy but at a price where if they're ruined by no taste I won't be as upset as I was Friday.

In no way would I ever tell someone to have the first two on your poll. Have something you have several of. That being said, and knowing your collection a Phalanx is the logical answer.

Contrary to Brent, I rather enjoy the Dark Shark. And at that price if the taste is muffled some you haven't lost too much.

The last Phalanx I smoked took 2 hours. I'd think the Virtue would be a lot milder as well.

I'd wait another three or four days.

Voted, but agree with Zeede, wait it out...

I'd wait until the cold is gone. I've had one for over a week, and it sucks, but at least I know I'm not a major nicotine addict! I don't enjoy smoking at all when I'm sick. If you must, go for the Dark Shark. Probably more flavor that the Don Rafael, and you won't be wasting a MoW.

Instead of wasting the MOW when you can't fully appreciate it just send it to me... Hahaha. I wouldn't waste a mow if I was unsure I could enjoy it. I'd probably burn something else.

Great success! I had a virtue and I could taste it. Now lighting up a Gurkha centurian as a second stick. An AlanS special

That couldn't possibly be a Gurkha; it hasn't blown-up in your face, dyed your hands purple, or begun bleeding orangutan semen...and you're over halfway through. I read on the internet that they ALL do that, and if you read it on the interwebs it must be true :)

Virtue is an amazing stick! I LOVE that cigar. I like the Longsdale 6X44. Killer smoke! Hell you buy em and DON'T like em. Let me know I'll buy 5 or 10 off ya.

Cheers
