I'm doing well enough now to say that there is a good chance that I am done with cigarettes forever. 
However, as an aside to my cigarette addiction, over the years I have a amassed a very nice and expensive collection of fine imported cigars. I am not addicted to them, tho. It's more of a social thing for me. I smoke maybe 1 or 2 per week.
Do you gentlemen who smoke/d cigars continue to smoke them, even tho you stopped smoking cigs?
I've burned a few cigars since quitting cigs, and it hasn't been enjoyable. At all. Frankly, they taste like poisonous crap now that my tastebuds are recovering. (Jeez I hope that is temporary!)
I'm also one to rationalize that since I am already going to smell like smoke from a cigar, then I might as well add a cig or two to the experience.
It seems a waste to give them away. I can't publicly sell them because...well, let's just say I can't.
Two docs told me that it's obviously preferable to quit cigars too, but they don't worry as much about continuing to smoke cigars because I don't inhale them and I only smoke them outside.
What have you cigar guys done with your cigars?
