"A good cigar is a smoke"
So, what's wrong with that statement?

I never smoked cigarettes, nor have ever intentionally inhaled any tobacco product.

I tried pipes, did not like them. Though, some pipe tobaccos smell OK at a distance.

I tried smokeless tobacco, and found it foul.

I occasionally smoke cigars. And have done so since I was 13. I still do. I enjoy about 20 to 30 V. good cigars a year. I have to be in the right mood, with the right outdoor setting. I enjoy the taste of good cigars, and find smoking them (with a good Scotch) relaxing in warm evenings. I especially enjoy them on vacations (such as in Cuba, Dominican Rapublic or the Ybor area of Tampa Florida. Smoking a good cigar with a friend who enjoys them is a treat to me.

Atip, beware of smoking indoors. Outside of health concerns, the smell gets into porus material (like wood and cloth), to later "come out" in damp conditions.
