Happened to me not too long ago.

Try a light, very mild cigar and see if that doesn't pick things back up.

I assume you snork?

I think we've all been there at some point and I agree with Bruce. If they aren't tasting like they should stop for awhile and let them get you to craving them. I smoke when I crave and to smoke a cigar without having that pull is just "blowing smoke" in my opinion.

Yeah, I'm gonna lay off for a bit. I haven't been smoking very often but I think a week or two break might do it.

How is the cake intake..??

Went to the dentist a couple weeks ago, what ever they use on the teeth to clean and polish made cigars and coffee taste bad for a couple days.

Single malt helps reboot the taste buds..:-)

I would also suggest taking a week or two off. With Spring upon us it could have to do with allergies too. If you have allergies that can negatively effect your sense of taste big time.:-)

Probably coming down with a cold.

Zycam.

Or as recommended. Just quit for a few days.

Feel for you bro.

Nothing tastes right, and more than that I don't have the desire to smoke lately. I was smoking like a chimney when it was freezing, now that weathers nice and I can be enjoying it nothing tastes right.

No point really, just whining.

Just stop smoking for a while and trust what your body is telling you. Cigar smoking is supposed to be a hobby not an addition like cigarettes. Why go through the motions if your palette and/or heart isn't into it?
[Reply]

That is good advice. I have only tried twice in the last 10 days.

Today is a little better. Yesterday I threw away two sticks in 15 minutes.
[Reply]

+1. That is what happened to me. I was smoking 3-4 a day, which is fine for some people, but it was above my own body's personal limit. So I got burnt out and had to take a break. But now I've found a rejuvenated, and honestly, better, appreciation for cigars than I had before. My break ended up lasting 4 months though.
[Reply]

A 4 month break. That's one way to help your sticks age a bit. Glad you are enjoying again now.
[Reply]

:-) Good point!
What's funny is that I thought I "quit" so I paid all my stuff forward to new smokers.
Then, after a couple months, I started getting really pissy and depressed. I got sick of it and asked myself what the H my problem was. Turns out I was just in a bad mood for 4 months b/c I wasn't relaxing with cigars anymore. :-)

I've been in a funk ever since I had a cigar made from 50 year old tobacco... It's not that everything else sucks... they just don't compare.
[Reply]

Time off is the way to go.:-)
[Reply]

How's the tinfoil hat holding up these days Scott? Maybe its just time for a new one.

Are you holding you mouth right when you smoke?:-)

[Reply]

I suggest thrice daily tongue scrapings with rockwell hardness 43 cake corpses, followed by thorough gzornblt-essence lavage.
[Reply]

This has happened to me a twice. Both times the streak lasted about 6 cigars, and I tought it was because I was smoking alone and/or the pairing of an alcoholic beverage. I even tried a few of my "go to" cigars. I was wrong. I think it was just that I needed a break....and waited until I really craved a smoke rather than smoking just for the sake of smoking. I hope this helps.

FYI: My funk has passed. I am now "Below the Funk".
