30 Days of Singles: A DogRockets decree

[DogRockets]

Here ye, here ye. DogRockets has just declared 30 days of singles to be smoked.

I was going through my cigars yesterday and was overwhelmed by the amount of random singles I have. Whether items I took from a Pass, a bomb someone sent me, a single I picked up to try, or my last of some cigar I've just about smoked my way through, my singles have piled up.

So for th next 30 days I'm only smoking singles, nothing I have multiples of.

Why are singles so hard to smoke sometimes? For me it's fear I will love it and want to buy more of them. What is your reason?

Will you join me Bums? Smoke those singles and post them here.

I'm starting off with a 187. I know nothing about this except it's a small ring gauge. I'm guessing @WNYTONY sent it to me at some point. Well it's being smoked now!

Let the 30 days begin!

In over 8 yrs or so of smoking I have only bought 3 unopened complete boxes and one of those was a split so..I usually try to buy and smoke at least 2 of something but there are may times in the past when I was more active on the boards (bombs, passes, maw/pif) that I had many singles. Like you the fear of liking and not having another was real...it's also why I don't buy into the hype of the LE stuff..but over the yrs it's become more of smoke what is available in my cooler which were stuff I bought in samplers..so I am back to refilling and looking at new stuff which in my case doesn't bode well for my storage..

I am in.

Will be enjoying something after my son's graduation today and I will make it something I only have 1 of.

For me it's probably the same as you guys, and I pretty much never chase LEs.

I also tend to wait for the "right moment" on cigars (especially CCs) that came as gifts - nice weather with no wind, my palate isn't burned out from too much recent smoking or spicy food, and a time when I'm not working or doing homework so I can just enjoy the cigar.

I've gotten a little better recently about smoking those singles down and I'm happier for it. I don't know if I'll last the full 30 days (even though I probably have enough singles for 100 days, or more), but I'll make a point to smoke a few and put 'em up here.

Good idea Sir Rockets.

With a humidor consisting MOSTLY of singles (probably well over 200), I'll jump on this too! Def won't make 30 in 30, but I'll add in where I can!

I have a bunch of singles to toast also. I remember back in my younger days, I did something like this with wimmin'. It cost me two marriages....

Ok, here we go. I got this from @Tobias Lutz , and if my recollection is correct I've had it in the humidor for about 2 years. This is a Camacho 10 Year Anniversary 11/18 vitola, not sure on the exact year it was made but I did a quick search and believe they were released in 2008. The cellophane is nicely yellowed, and so far it's smoking like a dream. Thanks buddy!

Sounds intriguing; not sure if this Jersey weather will allow me to enjoy a stick a day, but I'll play.

It doesn't need to be a single per day per se, his that you only smoke singles for the next 30 days when you have a cigar. This Indiana weather won't be conducive for me having one a day either. Hopefully some days I'll get more than one though!
