how many at one sitting before no taste...

[shemp]

So to follow up with my other thread of how many per week do you average, which opened my eyes to the beauty of living where i can smoke in the winter(san diego), I wanted to ask how many do you guys go through in one sitting before it doesn't matter what you smoking, you just can't taste anything for the rest of the day/week...

with me it's around my 4th or 5th in a sitting, but it also really depends on the beverage im having. If i'm having an ipa or a scotch i will probably not taste anything past the 3rd smoke. If i have water or red wine, or tea, i can taste till about the 5th, then i'm saturated...and sandpapered

Try eating some dark chocolate between smokes! It will help clean the palatte and you'll get more of the cigar flavor from each of the smokes...regardless of the number.

Here's more info about the idea:

Usually after bout 3 my palate is fried, not that that stops me.

I try to stagger the strengh of my smokes throughout the day. For example, I'll have a 5 Vegas Gold or El Mejor Espresso with coffee in the morning and save the Taboo Boot Camps for later in the day. If I start off with a boot camp first thing all other smokes just run together.

a dark cocoa does clean your taste...dark chocolate...coffee....but uhh about 3/4 depending on the spiciness of it

I agree with that. I will make sure not to smoke something that leaves a lot of aftertaste too early in the evening, if I plan on having more than one.

normally i'll just do one per sitting...but then again, that will probably change as i fall down the slope

I can do three, but I tend to smoke strong cigars with lots of flavor...by the end of #3, I'm toast!

[rizzle]

The most cigars that I have ever smoked in a day is 3. I don't know how you guys can go one after another after another. God bless ya.

It really depends on the cigars and the day in general. I have had 5 in a day and a couple were silly big 8 inch+ 50rg+ cigars but since they were mild to medium and spaced out some I could taste them to the end. I have also had one LfD knock my taste buds out so it really depends.

[ttours]

Really hard to say or to pick a number. To me when I am numb and feel no more I stop lighting cigars and continue to drink. That way I don't burn my face or smoke the wrong end or light the house on fire.

I have had one take taste from me and I have smoked 10 and was still going strong when the sun rose.

No pat answer to that question

For me, after 3 in a night, they get unenjoyable, but thats me.
