    i dont smoke cigarettes. i do like the occasional cigar (too expensive to be a common occurrence). its a relaxing and pleasant experiance for me.
    i personally like the Cohiba brand.

    I used to smoke cigars....good ones back then. Came in a silver aluminum tube and the cigar was wrapped in thin wood veneer inside the tube. The name was "Don_ _ _ _" something. Don Rico? I don't remember. I got them in New York at a cigar store where they kept them in a humidity controlled room.

    I've only smoked one cigar, was with my dad over a couple glasses of fine scotch when I turned 19 and became legal age to drink...was in a silver tube.

    My Dad never smoked but when the Minister and his wife came for dinner when I was a little kid (our familys were close frends) Dad always had 2 alum tube cigars for them after dinner, and very old scortch

    My favourites are Cuban/Robustos/Maduros.
    My "daily" is the Partagas D4 (not a true daily, but I enjoy it 1 to 4 times a month). I'm afraid I'll be obliged to smoke one now :thumbs2:

    Edit:
    Partagas D1 Edicion Limitada 2004 instead of the D4 tonight, with the last glass(es) of a bottle of Chablis 2003 :christmas:

    I used to enjoy the occasional Arturo Fuente, but when the price of cigars went through the roof and my job melted away, I had to make some adjustments.
    Now I buy some pretty good hand rolled, long filler cigars from Finck.
    Good, not great smokes at a fraction of the price of a fine cigar.
    Anyway, I enjoy smoking them, and the mosquitos hate them all equally.

    not bad...ive been buying from JR CIGARS i like the premiums so needless to say i don't get them too often. everyone has told me to stay away from Thompson... the reel you in with attractive prices..and then they hound you about memberships etc etc
