Default Re: How did you get into cigars?

I smoked cigarettes many years ago when I was in the Air Force then quit cold turkey. Later smoked a pipe for a while and eventually gave that up. About a year ago my local beer shop and brewery installed humidors and started selling cigars. The brewer who was a friend of mine and had got me started home brewing said how much he enjoyed a cigar with a beer so I tried it. That got me into Cigars. Still a newbie and trying to figure out what I like. Just got some Rocky Patel Ligero to try out today. Not sure when I'm going to smoke them but looking forward to it.

I was deployed and a buddy gave me a few cigars. He was the cigar guy that deployment. Anyway I enjoyed them, I bought a box soon after. Then when I came home I took a 3 year brea. It wasn't till I came home from my 2nd deployment that I really started to smoke Cigars. Rockey Patel edge

i first got into cigars when i was around 16. my grandad - a baller in the truest sense and real classy guy took me on a holiday to italy. we were in a quiet restaurant in front of the sea not far from napoli, there was red marble everywhere. my grandad was talking to a a man who he seemed to know well, and he brought out a wooden box with a cigar in it. i don't know what cigar it was but my grandad, suddenly aware i was staring, handed it to me and said don't inhale. and that was it, i've loved cigars since.
