Good post here!




We all start somewhere when it comes to cigars, buy asking here you are one step further than I was a long time ago.
I wouldn't smoke any of the cheap gas station style cigars myself.
The quality of tobacco used is garbage. I started smoking BackWoods when I was young but would never go back to one.
Try a sampler from an online store, CI has some great deals for starters.

The best thing to do may be to go to a reputable cigar shop locally and ask what would be a good starter cigar.

Good luck with exploring the hobby, in time it may become a lifestyle.
