I only mentioned it, Georges, as things are strange post-Brexit, as you know. (Oh dear, politics...)

I'm sure there are designated areas within London where one can enjoy a cigar |

Starting a cigar collection
+1. Nobody I know of smokes cigars regularly in their living space - whether they live alone or not. Overtime, everything you own will begin to smell stale.
If you can seal off a small room and have some ventilation you can get away with smoking there IF you also then treat it with an Ozone generator after the smoke. To use an Ozone generator while you are Still in the apartment/home, the room MUST be sealed AND you must not enter it for an hour after the generator stops working. If you can't seal the room well, run the generator when you leave. Buy one with a timer on it. O3 is pretty effective at removing smoking odors when used this way. Ozone is dangerous but like most chemicals, can be safely used if you follow the appropriate precautions.

I loved the smell of ceegars in my face, and coming out of it too. Got a bit too much for me though, and I now vape.

I've smoked only once indoor and it was ok smell wise. Obviously it's not something you want to do often. |

Buy a box of Padron 1964 Aniversario Exclusivo Maduro Robusto. They're fantastic and reasonably priced. One of my favorites. |

Having nothing to do with the fact that I live across the street from the Padron family, I agree with the above-- You cannot go wrong with any of the Padron 1964 Aniversarios. The 1929 Aniversarios are spectacular but may be a bit "too much" if you arts just an occasional smoker. By the way, although it is not Belvenie's best, I think you will find that a 1964 Aniversario with Belvenie 14 year (Caribbean Rum Cask aged)(2 fingers with one cube) is just a spectacular combination. And when you combine that combination with the right sunset...IMG_1614.JPG
