I'll share the story of my first cigar with my dad, let's just say I was "18" for the sake of legality..

I was on summer vacation from high school and came down to the DR to spend a week at the factory with my dad, This was around the time he was making prototypes for the original LGs, so a little over 11 years ago. My dad and I were sitting at his desk and he reached across and handed me a cigar (LGs are quite full bodied for those that don't know) and told me to light it up. I lit it and started puffing away, he looked at me and told me "You know, if you really want to taste the flavor you need to inhale", so I did, because I knew nothing about how to smoke a cigar at the time. I spent the next 5 minutes in the bathroom on my knees in front of the toilet and I could hear him laughing at me in the background. I came back with some choice words for my beloved father and he told me "Now you know how not to smoke a cigar".


... I hope to have a son one day and do the same thing to him.
First LFD I ever had was a Double Ligero, and I made the mistake of smoking it on an empty stomach. I am pretty sure I turned a shade of green that day. I had no idea how strong it would be. Now, it's one of my favorite go to cigars.

You're not alone my friend. The Double Ligero has claimed many victims!

Now that is really funny to me! Coming from a guy who does not layer cigars on a multi-cigar day. I can smoke an LFD Chisel with my morning coffee and nubbed a Meaner Digger the same day.

D/FW. Mesquite to be specific.
Some of the guys at work call me Castro cause of the cigars, and a few if us were outside in lunch. I was smoking an illusione rothschilde, and of the guys ask if I'd let him try it. So I hand it to him, he takes a puff, then I tell him a retrohale will let you get a better sense if the flavors. He retro'd the whole thing, and damn near coughed up a lung it was hilarious.

Alright...since we are a brotherhood, and I'm completely secure, here's some of the damn fool things I've done while smoking a cigar. Caveat: they're all alcohol-related...learn from me. :rolleyes:

1. Ashed in my beverage; drank it anyway. (y)
2. Cutting the wrong end of a closed foot cigar. :facepalm:
3. Attempting to smoke the business end of the cigar, only to singe my face. :eek:
I've stuck the lit end in my mouth before and burned my tongue.... twice. That was an unpleasant experience.
