I was wondering how many of us are cigar smokers that was my first love before I found pipe.

I was a cigar smoker when I was in the Army. Tax-Free Kig Eddy panatella cigars were cheaper than cigarretes and tobacco, besides, rolling along with your head out of the turret of a Challenger 2 with a cigar looked really cool.
Now I don't have access to KE's for the same price and the cost (Tax paid) is prohibitive.
I still love a good cigar now and again, but I will say it again, you guys in the US have it really easy.

I was a casual cigar smoker. Liked smoking Isabelas, a nice mild Cuban tobacco seed grown in the Philipines. Cheap in price. My favorite is romeo y julieta which I would only get every other week as a treat. But now that I started smoking pipes haven't had one in the past 2 months lol.

I smoke both pipes and cigars. Mainly pipes though. I did smoke mainly cigars for about a year and learned a lot about them, but I switched back to mainly pipes again because I love pipes and pipe tobacco. I now smoke maybe 15-20 cigars a year now.

I'm a recent convert.Smoked cigars for the last couple of years.Couldn't justify the cost any longer,for $20 you get 3 maybe 4 cheap cigars.That same $20 goes a lot farther now that I switched to smoking a pipe.

I just smoke the occasional cheap nasty Swisher Sweet . Brings back memories of a favorite uncle who has gone to that great home in the sky.

I've been a casual cigar smoker since before the pipe. I did get sort of into it for a year or so but after taking up the pipe I rarely smoke a cigar. I might smoke a half dozen cigars in a year. Every once in a while a Rocky Patel Vintage, or an Arturo Fuente 8-5-8 Maduro hits the spot.

I still smoke cigars and love them. Even though I smoke more pipes now I still smoke my cigars on a regular basis. In my humidors right now I got some Kristoffs, Camacho Triple Maduro, Davidoffs, Joya de Nicaragua, Padrons, Partagas, and then a good bit of mix match single cigars.

I really enjoy maduro cigars, however I'm not partial to any particular brand, yet I do favor the larger gauges. Typically I'll roll over to the cigar shop in my neighborhood (five minute drive) and pick something different each time...never had a "bad" cigar. Sadly, the B and M does not sell any other pipe tobacco other than 1Q and I have quite a bit on hand already.

I started smoking cigars and pipes at the same time back in 1998. I smoked mostly cigars for a while, but for the last two years mostly pipes.
In the last two years I have smoked 1 - 2 cigars a year and 1 - 3 pipes a day.

I enjoy both pipes and cigars also. Average cigars in a week is 4-5, at least 1-2 pipe bowls a day.
I am on a Burley kick these past few months. usually Latakia rules.
Favorite cigars - A.Fuente Cuban Corona,858, Cohiba, Hoya de Monterey. I have moved to smaller ring gage corona size the past couple of years.
