What's new? Grab two and let's go.
For fun and self-discovery, not a psychological assessment.
Who you are
Weekends mean friends and something new from the shop. You don't plan it much. The shop's newest arrival is usually the whole plan. A couple of singles and a friend's patio, and the afternoon is sorted.
You don't keep notes. If a cigar was good, you'll remember. If it wasn't, it was still a good afternoon. You're happy to try whatever the shop suggests, and you'll share what's left with whoever's around. Most weeks the conversation outlasts the cigar.

Blind spots
- Forgets the good ones The cigar you loved last month has no name now.
- Singles everywhere You buy more than you smoke, and they wander round the house.
- No pattern to learn from With no notes, you keep rediscovering the same likes.
- Drifts with the crowd You'll smoke what the group smokes, even when you'd prefer something else.
At the lounge
You'll happily drop into a lounge, though a friend's patio is better. You chat with whoever's next to you and ask what they're smoking. The details can wait. Good company and a new single are enough. If the lounge gets too serious, you'll head back outside.
Your setting: A friend's patio on a Saturday.
With friends
Your style is bring your own and share what's left. Friends know you'll turn up with something new, and you're glad to pass it round. You never make anyone feel they picked wrong. Afternoons with you run long without anyone noticing. A good cigar is a bonus.
How you host: Bring your own, share what's left.
Your ritual
Stop at the shop and ask what's new. Grab two, one for you and a spare. Head to wherever the friends are. Light up without ceremony and let the cigar ride along with the afternoon.
How you buy
You ask the shop what's new and pick a couple of singles on the spot. Boxes feel like too much commitment. Your humidor, if you have one, is loose and changeable. A few singles end up in jacket pockets and kitchen drawers. Not every one makes it to a Saturday.
At your best
At your best, cigars feel relaxed and welcoming around you. Anyone can join your Saturday, and nobody needs to know a thing. You try new cigars with an open mind and good humour. Every afternoon with you feels easy.
When it slips
When it slips, the cigars blur together. You can't name a single favourite, and the drawer of forgotten singles grows. Writing one name down when you love something would change that fast. Your phone is right there.
Two things to try
- Next time you love a cigar, photograph the band before you leave.
- Buy two of the same new single and smoke the second one alone.
Smoking buddy
Same company, same moments, the other side of new versus classic.
SLUF The CompanionThe Companion keeps the Friday chairs warm, and you bring something new to pass round.
Your opposite
Every letter flipped.
PLCA The CellarmasterThe Cellarmaster can show you what patience and a log do for a cigar. You can show them that a good afternoon needs no planning.
In the stars just for fun
A cigar you forgot the name of will turn up again. Write it down this time.
