    Recently I have burning singles of new to me cigars. Lots of "expert picks", " best of 2012" from last year, new releases, and stuff I am just now getting around to. Been a nice start to the year so far.

    I've been burning a good amount of the sticks I chose for aging to see progress. The others are sticks that I'm just revisiting... I've been disappointed in the new releases so I've just been doing my staples lol
    Money can't buy taste

    I don't think that I've ever had a rotation ever.... w/in the last year or so, all I've been doing is trying new sticks. new meaning stuff that I've never had. And at this rate and stash, I think I can do that for another year. But I really enjoy it

    If I go with recent cigar choices, I've been on one of my "Cuban" modes. Smoking 2008 Esplendidos, 2007 Hoyos and pretty much all of my 2010 stash of PSD No.4

    Tried a 5 vegas gold maduro yesterday, and it sucked....as they all have from that box. So sorry I jumped at those!

    Uhm, rotation?
    I buy so many sampler packs and 5 packs, there really isn't any rhyme or reason to my rotation.
    I have a bunch of boxes, but most of those I just can't stand to see those decrease in amount. LOL!

    I stand there, stare at the cigars for 20 minutes, debate with myself on which one I want to smoke and then end up grabbing one that I have multiple of and off I go. LOL!

    Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

    I typically rotate the cigar from the humidor to my hand to my mouth to my ashtray....lol
  • brianetz1brianetz1 Posts: 4,134 ✭✭✭
    the beautiful thing about being a new smoker is that i will smoke just about anything just try it......so my rotation has no thyme or reason right now.

    Fonseca Arana, AJ Fresh Rolled, Perdomo Lot 23, Alec Bradley SCR, and Sol Cubano Classic. All robustos. Those five are the staples. Once I burn the remaining Sols, they will be out of the rotation, to be replaced by Signature Classic Sungrown. The Lot 23s will be replaced by Lot 23 Maduro which are even better. The others are all delightful as is.

    No, this does not imply that it's not fun to try something different. There's a slew of others in the top tray which are almost all things which I have not tried, waiting for a time when I feel like evaluating, Much of the time, though, I like to have something predictable I can rely on for when I don't want to think about the cigar. Sitting by the hearth with the RedHead last night, for instance, watching the toob and scratching the pup, I just wanted a nice smoke I didn't need to think about, so grabbed an AJ Fresh Rolled. Wonderful.

    For me, grabbing outside the rotation involves a certain routine of work. Have to pay attention to the wrap, the odor, the foot, the cap, the drink, the light, the flavors, the ash, etc etc. Not much sense in burning something new unless you evaluate it. If I'm not up for that, I grab from the rotation.

    about the only thing i smoke regularly is the 5 Vegas Classic. I actually have a section of my cooler dedicated to singles that i have yet to try so i visit that as often as i can.
