I was just wondering if there was anyone else here into cigars? I am not talking about just a smoking fetish, but actually enjoy kicking back with a nice cigar and enjoying it.

Yep - cigar smoker here although usually only once a week unless at a show, traveling or partying.

Favourite is the old faithful Montecristo No.2 but also like SeriesD.4, Trinidad and Punch Punch.
US brand Tatuaje : http://www.tatuajecigars.com/
Highly recommended and Pete Johnson the owner, is a mate.

awesome. pete makes some good stuff. have you had any of the illusione from Dion? he just came out with a new line that is amazing. being in the US it is harder to get cubans, but where there is a will there is a way.
the monte 2's are good. have you had any of the 4's or 5's? not a big smoke but very flavorful.

I have been on a Greycliff kick for the past few months and seem to be stocking my humidor with them lately. They are smooth and very consistent so I just keep goong back to them.

A Grycliff and a nice Scotch after a seven day grind of flying all over the globe while kicking back in the hot tub is so nice.

Yep, I'm all about cigars over here. No real favorites, but I do like Punch and some Romeo Y Juliettas. I never know what I'll walk out with after a purchase.

I like having a stick with some strong Spanish coffee.

Not really as cigars are all about taking an hour and a half and relaxing, preferably with a good friend or two and just enjoy a slow burning quality cigar with a good drink and awesome conversation.

No. With all respect, most cigar smokers wouldn't smoke a Blunt or other non-hand rolled cigars. Once you try a good cigar, you'll notice the difference right away. There's no way you go back to a blunt. Not even as a joke.

Rocky Patel, pretty much anything of that brand.

Cohiba Red Dot's are good also, but over-priced.

Montecristo #2, Cuban so not too easy to get, but unbelievable draw.

Cusano C10, their best stick. Petite Corona, very smooth draw.

Whoever asked what to have, pour a good single malt and suck the cigar like it's Jesse Flores' cock. Just white, hot ash at the end instead of white, hot jizz.

Recommendations for a cigar smoking newbie? I am in Southern CA. After smoking cigarettes takes some getting used to not inhaling.

First thing is DON'T INHALE. Take your time, relax and enjoy at a cigar bar, over coffee or after dinner. I actually like a smoke when on a long drive.

Second start small and in-expensive.
Cuban Seed Company on Santa Monica Blvd is a great little smoke shop with good prices and they'll recommend you on something right - but most cigar stores will do you ok.

Don't get too caught up in "cubans" - yeah they are great but there are plenty of Dominican's which are excellent also. See if you can get a Dominican Punch, Ashton, the Tatueje which I mentioned ... etc.

for those of you looking for something to try, i highly recommend pretty much anything from illusione. it is a smaller brand but some of the best smokes out there.

I can't ever find any good cigars in the tobacco shops around here. Rather disappointing, I prefer a cigar once in a while to a cigarette.

Oliva Nubs either Habano or Connecticut. Now available in Maduro, haven't tried yet. Best ever - Comacho Triple Maduro - Expensive but well worth it. A big, dark, heavy monster, knda like the ones I like on here, but a different flavor, lol.
