...with the help of Dr. Z!
Dr Z. decided to bomb me a couple weeks ago, about the time I posted asking for suggestions for a cigar for my wife. She had expressed interest in trying one, so I wanted some suggestions. Well, Dr Z. was kind enough to include a bomb for her too. Great guy, huh?
Anyway, he sent me some great sticks, and for her, included a Acid Blondie and Kuba Kuba and a Oliva G Maduro robusto and figurado. A nice selection for a first timer.
So, last night my wife made some lasagne and we hosted my mother-in-law for dinner. My wife had me open a bottle of wine after dinner. She was the only one drinking the wine. So after my mother-in-law left, we cleaned up the kitchen. And, I poured the last of the bottle of wine for my wife. I then suggested that it was time for her to try her first cigar. We bundled up and I grabbed a couple cigars...the 5 Vegas "A" Churchill for me and selected the Acid Blondie for my wife. I poured myself some Ridgemont Reserve on the rocks and headed for the balcony.
Now, I totally expected my wife to light up and take a few puffs from her cigar and the put it down. But, to my surprise, she really liked the Acid Blondie. We puffed and talked and were having a great time. She smoked that cigar down to the nub. She said she enjoyed it and didn't want it to end since I was still smoking. Then, to my shock and surprise, she asked if she had another small cigar that she could smoke since I was only half way finished with my churchill. So, I went into grab her the Oliva G figurado. :cbig: She was also out of wine at that point. She had some Malibu rum but we were out of coke, so she wanted some A&W rootbeer to mix with it. (sounded aweful to me...)
So, we lit up the Oliva for her and right away, she tasted some chocolate. The figurado had a tight draw, so she had to work a bit. She didn't like the tight draw very much, but did like the cigar. She said she thought she enjoyed the Blondie more. As she smoked this one, she would comment about the different flavors she was picking up. Did I mention how much I lover her? :starrylov
As we were both nubbing our cigars, she said she wanted another one!!! :stretchgr :applause: So, I went to get her another cigar, the Oliva G Maduro robusto was up next for her and I got a La Gloria Cubana Series R #4 for myself. We poured her another drink and I poured myself some Knob Creek. She really enjoyed the robusto, it had an easier draw and was easier to smoke. She decided that she liked that one the best of the three. :glassesgr
So, for my wife's first experience, she chained smoked 3 different cigars and discovered her "new drink". The Malibu and Root beer sounds aweful, but turned out to be really good. Ha! And, she said that my "ass breath" isn't so bad when she as "ass breath" too.
I hope everyone else had a great Saturday night too...
