Cigs in the freezer? Is this some British English thing I'm not getting or something? Never heard of that before.

Then it's brilliant because it works on both levels!

Probably helps keep them fresh for longer, for people who don't kill a pick in a day or too. If you've ever had a cigarette after it's been sitting in an open pack for a few days, it's kind of nasty tasting. That would be my guess at least.

Excellent call on the Punch RS12s. Partagas coronas, the first release Trinidad Colonials are exceptional right now. On the domestic front I'm a huge Fuente fan with the Don Carlos #3 being my go to smoke right now. I'm a big fan of the smaller sized Opus X as well as Ashton VSGs.

i smoked marlboros mostly from the beginning. i think nat shermans are the best. personally i prefer MCDs for the sort of nutty taste and full flavor. the black and golds are much lighter in comparison. the fantasias are more like the MCDs but colored and without the nutty flavor. if you want a more regular looking cig, then their classics are great too. i'm trying to quit so i've been smoking nothing but MCDs for the past couple months.

I've also been getting back into cloves lately. The eugenol buzz is better than I remembered.

Hookah is pretty fun too.

Oh I miss those cloves... Their full body taste just does it for me. And hookah, I was smoking one with my friends on a spiral staircase on a stormy snowing night, unbelievable experience

Hookah can really put out crazy amounts of smoke if it's big enough, too. I know some people who've managed to fill their whole room with it.

There's this one brand of cloves, something orange. I don't think they're in production any more, sadly. Unfiltered and hand rolled, bringing new meaning to full bodied. Knocked me square on ****** once or twice.

Dunhill superior milds are my cig of choice. Occassionally I'll go for Djarum blacks or specials. When I smoked cigars more a couple years ago, H. Upmann Conneusieurs were my favorite, and I also enjoyed Punch rojos I think they were.

I smoke bensons and hedges, special lights -- they are a bit thinner than the regular cigarettes but not thin enough to be effeminate. Whenever I am overseas, I opt for Dunhill lights Internation -- cream colored box, very very smooth... although at cigarettes costing me over 350$ a month, I am considering beginnig to roll my own....

It's just the smelly hands thing that worries me a little.

I have the peculiar luck of being able to smoke without being addicted. I can smoke a pack a day and then not smoke for another year. Here are my Turkish Specials, unfiltered ovals:

I love how the design has not changed since the '60s. Appropriately, that's also a '50s Dunhill Sylph lighter in the silver tray.
