I usually don't smoke, but I think a cigar every now and then will be cool. So far I've only ever had black & mild. You guys want to recommend anything?

Black and Mild are horrible cigars, as well as Gold and Mild. I smoked a few of those in my day, but quickly learned that I wanted something that wasn't bound to make me nauseous after making it halfway through. I'd even suggest Swisher Sweet over those nasty fuckers any day.

If your going to smoke cigars, but not do it very often, buy some good cigars, not the $0.39 special. If you want to try a cheap alternative to B&Ms, and can't afford much, check into Swisher Sweet Woodtips. These are harsh cigars, cheaply made, but the wood tip adds some flavor, making them bearable. Nowadays, I smoke Cuesta-Ray Cameos. They're imported from the Dominican Republic and are very smooth. They run around $15US for a tin of 10. I'm not sure, but I think most cigar shops would carry these in their cheap section, maybe the small step above cheap.

You can spend anywhere from $.50 to $500 on a cigar, but the cheap ones are always going to taste like ass and most people hate the smell of them. A higher quality cigar will last longer (as it's usually fresher tobacco) and has a richer, smoother taste. Cigars vary greatly in harshness, taste, and smoothness. Finding a good median for all three is difficult, so you have to look. Since you only smoke them every once in a while, you may as well buy something better than that cheap shit. Seriously look into a tin of Cuesta-Rey Cameos, though. They're reasonably priced, smoke rather well, and are very smooth, especially compared to B&M.

I smoke Garcia Vegas with my smoking buddies a lot.

Not much else these days. Use to smoke Swishers, but they taste like ass to me now.

I Smoke ACID brand Cigars. Trust me they taste killer and the smell... the smell is unbelieveable, any woman would love to be around you with that sweet smoke.

They Run about $13 a Cigar but lasts you 45 minutes.

just go to a cigar shop and tell them your situation. the owner will probably ask you a few questions oin taste, leaf, etc. that you'll have no clue about and then you'll just let them pick out a few cigars for you. realize though that Swisher Sweets and such aren't real cigars and if you do start buying $5-10 ones you're going to want a humidor.

my friend's parents own a chain of tobacco shops so I've been able to get really good cigard for cheap the past few years. I've had some really good Punch brand cigars which I think run around $12 each (I get em for $3!) but iit's worthless to buy anything besides the Swishers unless you have a humidor so they don't get ruined. The little plastic baggies they come in don't do crap to keep the cigars in good shape.

Who are you Reno.911 O_O (I'm live in reno hehe)

Anyway, Peach Optimos are good, I don't like swishers but everyone else does. Actually I don't like fruit cigars that much. Philly Honey is a great cigar, and then I had this cigar that wasn't really flavored, it just had mint leaves or something in it so it made your breath taste fresh.

The ONLY reason you would EVER see me with a swisher is that I'm planning to cut it, take the tobacco out, and roll up some weed.
