Absolute Obsession!!

You too, huh :lol:


I'd have to say both as well. From a hobby side, I enjoy seeking out sticks I haven't tried yet, reading all that I can about anything cigar related, and most recently, I began collecting cigar related memorabilia.

From a lifestyle point of view, I plan many activities around my cigar smoking. Cigars have become a part of me and no matter where my travels may take me, I'll always have some tagging along.
 
At first I was getting ready to press the button for hobby - then I thought about my life and how it involves cigars - had to go for both. You guys have brought me over to the Dark Side!!!!!

Excellent question, Syntax. Made me really think about it.
 
I am still not fully emersed. I only smoke one or two a week. I still like admiring some from a far (rare and expensive ones that is). I love reading about them and talking about them. It is my new hobby.
 
at first hobby, but now that some of my paycheck is alloted to buying cigars, and it falls in the budget plan, it is a GREAT lifestyle! Can't get much better than this! Ha Ha!!!!!
 
Notice hoe the two people that have said it is a hobby have under hundred posts with the lifestylists have way over that mark.
 
hobby right now but although I have only been reading this forum and trying different cigars for about a month, it is closer to a compulsion as I usually start to look for something to buy next as the last order gets closer to my post office box
 
For me, more hobby than lifestyle. But, some of both for me...
There are times when I plan or adjust my schedule to include a ciagr or two... :D
 
It started as a hobby, but I've had a cigar budget for a while now. I guess I'll have to say both.
 
Both for sure, Hobby, trying all I can and learning as much as possible....plus hobby = work for me....thankfully, otherwise I'd have to shoot myself....

Lifestyle.....

Taking my fav's to get togethers and going out...People have told me when they think about or smell cigars, they think of me....I am becoming a walking talking cigar..................

:lol:
 
I would say that I certainly say at the moment that my cigar smoking is a hobby - but I aspire to the lifestyle, the idea of smoking several good sticks a day WOW ! now thats living !
 
Both.

Started as more of a lifestyle thing. I started smoking them when I was 16. I wanted to stand out from all the other kids who thought they were cool for smoking cigarettes. I think this is where I got the hobby of getting cigarette smokers to puke by giving them a cigar started. . .

More recently it became a hobby. For the longest time, I'd just buy a few boxes of my favorite cigars and reorder when I smoked them up. Then I found a local tobaccanist who has a HUGE humidor and I was like a kid in a candy store. Now I like trying just about anything new.

I also just love the smell of a good cigar burning.
 
for sure both, if im not smoking or thinking about smoking, then Ireally dont know what im doing.
