First CIgar, Really Excited
 

So yesterday i went and bought my first cigar, and after my post is on i will be smoking it. I have smoked everything out there but never a cigar so i thought why not. I didnt really know what i was looking at and the shop keeper didnt help a whole lot, but i decided on something in the mid price range, a Baccarat Corona. It looked good and I think im ready after reading the how to's and so on. So here we go.

My first cigar was a oliva conn. reserve. and I have been falling down this slope ever since.

Enjoy

it was actually pretty good and at only $6 it was better than i thought it would be. a bunch of my friends smoke cigars and i wanted to try it. So. I think it will be a good reward at the end of a long week of work ;)

Re: First CIgar, Really Excited
 

Yea cigars are a great reward and a great way to relax. Pretty soon it will be a reward at the end of a hard day haha!

Another bites the dust, and another one down, another one down, another one bites the dust. Its a quick ride down the slopes now brother!

Don't buy expensive ones yet.
You smoked that puppy in less than an hour.
That puts you on the "you smoke fast" side of things.

I can baby a cigar for hours if I get lazy enough.:r
I am on the slow side for sure.

Welcome to CS and to the world of cigars.

Just wait, cigar smoking is sort of anti climatic at first. With lighting and cutting issues, and trying to pair the right drink with your cigar and all. Soon you'll get clean cuts, proper lights, and know exactly what drink your cigar needs. Let's just say you'll be visiting the Coinstar a lot.

haha! That is so cool. Baccarat was my first-ever cigar too! I think it was like a Rothschild. :banger

Re: First CIgar, Really Excited
 

One step at a time now. :D

Re: First CIgar, Really Excited
 

i thought it took me a good while, the lighting of it was the hardest part because im used to cigarettes and black and milds.
is 45 minutes not that long for a cigar?

Re: First CIgar, Really Excited
 

Its all up to you how long you want to take, as long as it tastes good to you and you enjoy it:2

Re: First CIgar, Really Excited
 

That sounds about right for a rothschild or small robusto. Try and take about a puff every 45-60seconds. This allows the cigar to burn slowly and not acquire any off tastes. The main thing is to enjoy yourself and relax. Did you like it?

Re: First CIgar, Really Excited
 

yeah i liked it and it really was enjoyable!
