Weather Permitting: Cigar Lounge or Cigar patio?

[joeypots]

The cigar experience is better inside. The way the smoke can envelop the senses inside can’t be duplicated out doors. Not in a lounge with 50 other people smoking but in my house, relaxing alone, it’s inside for me. Not that I don’t like being outside, cigar smoking is simply a slightly diminished experience for me in the fresh air.

Outside!

21 C? I'm in a turtle neck and a hoodie, searching for the fireplace.🥶

Outside for me, I prefer to see the outdoors while enjoying a fine cigar 👍 

On the other hand, I won't refuse a perfectly good cigar lounge waiting for me to come smoke in 😊

Always patio. Unless it's in Tucson...

Outside always. My patio heaters were a great investment.

Outside, even in winter.  Being inside with other smokers muddles the flavors and aromas for me.

So over it! Hard to smoke bigger cigars in 100% humidity

In those scenarios outside every time but only sitting in the shade.

If I'm sweating bologna stains in a short sleeve shirt..... Lounge.... Otherwise I love to smoke outside.

Outside. Brought tv on deck to watch the Players and of course it starting snow/sleet mix after lighting up. Sick of the cold and it really did not snow here this winter.

Given the variables not mentioned, outside is always preferable to me. I avoid at all costs the lounge with stagnant ventilation and would rather find a secluded corner of my property to block the wind on a cold day to have a smoke.  I take 1+ hour walks 3-4 X week for exercise and always have my smokes along for company.  It's my me time.

I agree with so many of the above posts that mention the variables.  Humidity and RG lends towards wonky burns, wind diminished the experience, lesser body cigars may lose elements of pleasure even in light winds, rain can be a distraction, low temps bring multiple speed-bumps. Hail to the N1 Maduro Lanceros for my walkabouts, for they have given me greatest pleasure with the least problems.

Outside.  A good outside view is a better compliment to a good cigar than any interior.    View at an outside Vegas proper cigar bar I stumbled onto.   Very nice inside but the weather was perfect and the mountains looked beautiful.   When you were seated the road was not visible

Outside if the wind is mild, even in lesser temps
