Had my first cigar tonight since 2002...

[yearofthenick]

and I forgot how great it is. I love the way my clothes smell after I smoke a cigar. I might have to take my peacoat to work tomorrow just because I wore it when I was smoking the cigar outside.
I also forgot how it makes me have to go #2.
Anyone else on here smoke? What are some good cigars I should try out? These ones were given as a celebratory gift for the recent birth of my son. They're Arturo Fuente's.

I can handle people smoking cigarettes but cigar smoke makes me do this

in front of a toilet.

My first ever cigar was an Arturo Fuente.....I was 18 and playing golf with a buddy....that was as close to "high" as I have EVER been!!! My golf ball was moving on me!!! Now, asthma and allergies have kept me from smoking (or from being anywhere near anyone that is, for that matter).

Honestly I thought Rush had cigar suggestions on his website of good starter cigars. I'm too lazy to look but I know he's a self proclaimed cigar affecianado (sp?)

Been smoking a lot of Perdomo's lately. Specifically, the Lot 23's. They make a ton of great cigars though. Not really familiar with Arturo Fuentes. Was the one you had on the mild side or more robust? I go for the more robust ones myself. Rocky Patel Vintage and Sungrown are great. Oliva V, if you can find it, is another one of my favorites.

Acid Brand is the only actual cigar i've smoked, and as it was alright, i didn't like the spicy flavor it had, but i do enjoy black and mild wine, idk if you would count those though

I've tried a few Acid cigars and found them all to be overpowering in the flavors that they add to them.

All this talk is making me jones for one. Guess I'll be hanging out in the garage tonight. Then again with the weather we've been having here it might be nice enough to sit out on the patio and get my firepit going.

Do they come in the cask shaped humidor or is that yours?

I switched to a pipe for my occasional smoke but a about 5 years ago me and the brother went on a quest to find a good smoke for under 2.00. Found a few that fit the bill but then the jerk gave me a Havana. Once you have one of those it pretty much ruins anything but a premium smoke for you.

Sometimes The Fink Cigar company has deals on the "good" stuff.

Sorry to say no. I had that custom made about 11 years ago. And at that time it was expensive
FYI the best and cheapest place to get cigars

Sitting out in my garage enjoying a fine Perdomo Lot 23 Robusto right now. Nice medium to full bodied cigar in the $7 range.
