Has anyone used the Cigar Boss Pro app on their smartphones or tablets? How do you like it? Thanks.

The really good and really bad ones are always memorable.

This 110%
When I first started I took pics, saved bands, kept a journal. But after awhile my palate changed and so all that went out the window. Over the years I've become somewhat a cigar snob and only really enjoy a select few. I'll break it up from time to time and try something new but for the most part I only have a handful of sticks that really suit my taste all the time. Thus it's easy to remember.

What are those select few cigars?

I use this website: stogierate.com

It lets you do a bunch of stuff including keeping track of what you have in your humidor, the dates purchased, how many you have...etc.

There is a place where you can write notes for each cigar and a running list that you can put yellow stars next to to indicate what you really enjoyed.

I'm relatively narrow in my selections. I've tried a decent bit, but since I don't smoke a ton, I stick to what I know and like. I don't go grab a bunch of singles unless they're newer releases from stuff I know I will enjoy.

I'd post on today's smoke thread, short blurbing what was most appealing / striking about the cigar.
Then after awhile , check my smoking history for reference to what gave me the most satisfying experience thru literal quips . these are one of the other many great features/d thusly at BOTL.. endless horizons here for you single thread junkies :razz:

Like most in my head. Although now I'm trying so many different brands I have to keep better notes. Not for the good ones but for the bad ones lol.

I tried to keep a cigar journal for a little while but realized that I enjoyed my smoking more when I wasn't trying to keep notes on it.

I agree with this 100%

Cigar Journal... that I haven't entered anything into in about 4 months.

It's all in my head. I tried to keep a cigar journal for a little while but realized that I enjoyed my smoking more when I wasn't trying to keep notes on it. While smoking I mentally categorize the cigar as: Didn't like, try again, good for a budget/good for a special occasion or buy some more of.

Cheers :ccool:

I had the same experience. Started to feel like work, which is exactly what I am trying to escape when smoking a cigar. I now just keep a couple excel sheets, one for cigars I would like to try or just buy again and one for cigars I consider "box worthy".
