Premium cigars. Wasted on new smokers?

You might want to check out the Indian Tabac samplers. you can get a wide variety to help find what you are looking for without breaking the bank.

If that Padron exec. did not do it for you try the Padron Principe.

When starting out, try as many different blends and brands as you can afford. Try to take notes or research the country of origin(s) of the tobacco. If you find you like Padron's, try some other Nicaraguan smokes to see if its the tobacco you like or just the particular blend. Try different sizes of the same cigar, often each size will have a slightly different profile. Lastly as others have already said, "Smoke what you like" and enjoy!

Thanks for the replies, gentlemen.

I had been tossing around the idea of picking up a 5 pack or possibly a box. I'm going to hold off on that and grab a sampler and hopefully grab a humidor+sampler combo. Thanks for the great knowledge, gents.
