Ditto. I smoked one or two flavored Swishers with my buddy. He decided he wanted to try "real" cigars and brought one for me too. Some Macanudo, I have no idea what it was. I was hooked. Ironically, he fell off the cigar wagon and I pursued this addiction as much as I could. lol
First cigar?
- Thread starter calgon
- Start date
Smoked many phillies and swishers.... but my first big boy cigar was in February of 1996 it was a Las Cabrillas and a Butera .... My first box was a Thomas Hinds (Honuduran) Sept. 96... These were great cigars at the time during the boom..... This is when I started keeping a "dream' journal... oops I mean a Cigar Journal of labels and notes....
When I was 16 I got into my dad's humidor. I was headed to some outdoor concert and grabbed a cigar that seemed bigger than my head (if I remember correctly). The draw was so tight I couldn't get through even an inch. I have no idea what kind it was.
I've had better experiences since then..

First cigar was a Macanudo. My love of reggae led me to try them because it said made in Jamaica. Haven't liked one since! Soon there after it was followed by the classic Punch Maduro Rothschild which I still crave today. Pretty sure the 3rd was a El Ray Del Mundo and I still buy them. It was off to the races after that.

I believe mine was a RyJ Churchill I got from ABC Liquor. My used car manager smoked them all the time so I grabbed one.
My first cigar was some kind of bourbon infused cigar I bought at Mardi Gras when I was a senior in high school. It was in a glass tube. This was back in 2000 so I don't think it was a Makers Mark stick. I turned 18 when I was a senior so of course I thought I was The Man. I don't even remember smoking it.

Still a favorite smoke of mine to this day. The most cedar flavor I have come across yet.

My first cigar was a CAO Brazilia Gol then the next day a MX2 Rob. That got me really interested so I started trying even more out but was reluctant to jump in. After smoking a Cohiba Siglo VI that's when I decided to take the plunge.
First have to be black and miles and anything else from the gas station.
First real cigar was R&J aniversario! Loved it. Bought 5 pack and let one rest in my humi for so long trying to just remember or jeep the first ones I bought. Keep that one last stick for like 2 years before I smoked it. Wasn't as good as the first lol

First one i had was a monti junior open, i found it very mild. Next one was a few days later, it was a cohiba siglo 1. Wow, this was the one that got me started.
