.....just can't bring myself to smoking it...

[El Presidente]

The one special cigar you have in your stable that you just cant bring yourself to smoking.

You plan to do so...the day comes...you break the box or peruse the remaining few singles ...and you put it back for "another day"..."another special occasion".

Does anyone else have this occur?

What is the cigar that is calling you....that you are saving for a special time...that you continue to put back.

Did this again the past few days with an 80's SLR Churchill. I only have one stick remaining. One day

[OZCUBAN]

Whilst not exactly down to one Cigar, I am like that with what remains of my PSDC #1'S AND 3'S and my PUNCH RS 11'S and 12's

Even though i am not down to "my last sticks " supplies are fast disappearing,so the rule applies i suppose,

I keep putting off smoking them trying to stretch them out. but at the back of my mind i think that day may never come ,i should live in the moment "Carpe diem "

Easy, my final FOH blend "Tampa"

[cigarbreak]

Only have either a single or a couple and though i may have tried one previous., i always say this wih my SLR DC and 2 Boli GM 's lol

[khamy]

For me there are boxes i keep picking up and then putting back down, only opening them to admire.

* BGM '07

* Dip 4 i don't remember what year but it was pre '10

* PSD 4 '08

My only Edmundo Dantes 109

My concern is I'll fall in love with it and then send myself broke trying to chase more down on the secondary market

Maybe I'll smoke it when I win the lottery and money becomes no object...

[stogieluver]

I have two Monte 2's left from a box I bought in Havana at the Habana Libre LCDH. These are the last two cigars I have from that trip in 2012. Just can't bring myself to smoke them.

Does anyone else have this occur?

Thankfully I am not so afflicted. I very recently stumbled upon, and smoked, my last '05 Punch RS 12. Had I saved it for a "special" occasion, I'd have been extremely disappointed. But to be fair, I doubt it would have known whether the occasion was special or not.

Harden up and smoke it!

[OZCUBAN]

Easy, my final FOH blend "Tampa"

2 left for me

[cigcars]

I have one each of FOH's Czar and Tampa customs left, a BHK 56, and 9 left of some 2in. Flor de Farrach Habanas in the the cardboard box of 5 each. Smoked one, and despite its 60 year old age - it was FANTABULOUS!!! Those, I can't bring myself to give over to the lighter, the ash tray and the final "farewell"!

[LeafLover]

Punch RS 11. I'm down to 5 in my first box and 18 in the second. I rarely smoke them.

But I smoked one last night on the rooftop of the beach house I'm renting and it was amazing. With great sadness I had to leave it to rest after the first two thirds because I had to leave. Sucked. I even looked back at it as I was walking away.

[Habanos2000]

When my youngest son was born, I handed out Dominican Davidoff "T"'s. That was before I met Rob, 1998. I still have one left, waiting for that "special" day!

[JohnS]

A Partagas Coronas gifted to me (thanks Will!). Honestly, I haven't even thought about smoking it, especially after I found out it was discontinued in 2006.

One last Cohiba 1966 nurtured with great restraint finally slated for palpitation-inducing sacrifice next month while skating a bucks bug for summer-run steelhead. Gotta pick your spots!

[dangolf18]

This happens quite often. For me it's a few late 1980s/1990s Montecristo No.3. I have always heard about how good pre-1997 tobacco is. I only have two of these. Saving them for a special occasion. Who knows if they'll be that good...maybe it's just something I've built up in my mind.

The single Hamlet I won here . I want to but just hate to see it go.

Every day is special ,,smoke em while you got em

[LordAnubis]

I've smoked good cigars that were crap and bad cigars that were good. I don't save cigars anymore, i just smoke em whenever i feel like. I'm more scared of "that day" never coming and not getting a chance to smoke what i was saving than i am of smoking something and enjoying it and not having anymore.

I have a Monte 1 from the late 90's. I got a 5'ER of them in Feb 2000 when I was in Canada for a choir trip when I was 16. My brother gave me the idea to try and purchase a few cuban cigars. I walked in and picked out the Monte 1 just because of the name and size of the cigar. It was the first cigar I ever smoked. I remember standing outside the Amsouth Bank that my brother managed in 30°F(-1°C) weather. We were both smoking one, and we were both amazed how fantastic they were.

That cigar started my love of cigars. Anyways, I have one left, and can't bring myself to smoke it.

The cool part is Rob picked me a HQ box of Monte 1 from 2011. I brought a couple down to the beach with me so my brother and I could try one again together. He doesn't really smoke cigars, but he has been super excited since I told him I was bringing some Monte 1s.

Smoke that MO FO

[hebbe72]

A while ago I stumbled on a couple of 5ers of Hoyo du Roi from '99. They are amazing! Of course i smoked a couple but now i am down to 15 left, and I am pretty certain that I will not be able to find them again. So, every time I go for the locker, I have a look at them, but then choose something else to smoke...
