It's something I try to do, but usually end up failing at because to many to-good-to-miss opportunities have a habit of eating up my cigar money.
Usually I lay in my short Winter cigars during the Summer and try buying the reverse during the Winter, although to be honest I don't have, or smoke many bigger smokes (Prominente, Churchills etc) preferring narrower gauges (Laguito, Palmitas etc).
2012 however I see as being slightly different. I'm not too badly of for short smokes (Perla, PC etc) but will be looking to supplement the Tuppadore with a 10 or 25 Monte No 5 which I'm nearly out of, and depending on how they smoke possibly a 25 x H. Upmann Half Coronas.
Longer smoke buys for next year I see as being quite modest. 5 x Cohiba Lanceros and possibly a Lonsdales box, but which I don't know yet.
I will also be looking to get a box of Petit Piramides, again I don't know which, and possibly 2 boxes of Petit Robusto, of which the H. Upmann Mag. 48 is a definite, I'm not short on singles, but think now possibly is a good time to buy the 48s as I can foresee these vanishing in the not to distant future. I've got some HdM and Monte Petit and I've a box of RA Lucitanos. I've got a ERdM as a trial smoke, so I guess I'll have to see on that.
So, the Tippexx CCs plan for 2012 (Excluding 5ers and random ER and EL singles) looks something like:-
10 or 25 x Monte 5 (Definite)
25 x H Upmann Half Coronas (Possible)
5 x Cohiba Lanceros (Definite)
25 x Undecided Lonsdales (Possible)
25 x Petit Piramides (Definite)
25 x H Upmann Mag 48 (Definite)
25 x Short Robustos (Possible)
Well that's my list. Not too daunting thank God. Although I would have added a 25 x PL Panatelas, except Habanos don't appear to have released any this year.
Anyone else have a list?
