Everything I have found says that one or two cigars a week has a fairly minimal impact on cancer risk. Daily or multiple a day is probably bad though.
Before Covid, I was at about one a week, now maybe one a month during the winter and a bit more often in the summer. I usually only buy cigars when I'm on a trip to somewhere that's cheaper than Canada, and I'll stock up there. Fortunately, being Canadian, I can go to Cuba as well as to the US to get cigars, so my humidors have a nice combination of Cubans and new world (I have one for strictly Cubans and the second for new world). Otherwise, cigars here are stupid expensive and I'd probably only have a few a year tops (a $5 USD cigar in the states is often $20CAD or more here).
