I'm new to cigar smoking, so please tell me...

Ya know, my local liquor store has some pineapple flavored cigars. On one hand, my interest is stirred. I kind of wonder what a pineapple cigar would taste like. But on the other hand, they've been there exposed, not in a humidor for god only know how long. They're probably ruined anyway.

I admit, I've had a couple Acid Juicy Lucys. I like the pre-light flavor of them but once lit there's nothing special about them.

Sometimes I just need something to keep my mouth busy, and don't have the time to actually sit and enjoy a good cigar... plus I'm broke most of the time. So I'll buy a pack of gas station or a liquor store cigars because it's like $2.50 for a pack of 5. They may not be the best, but it does the trick. Plus, I don't feel so bad putting it out halfway through the cigar.

Go get some Don Kiki's according to your strength level. You won't be sorry. Cheap, hits the spot, and it is the cigar I compare every other cigar I smoke to.

Don Kiki's are really good. Especially the Brown Labels.

hold on, slow down, slow down... lets get the right cigar for you... yes the brown lable is great, but its a med-full flavored cigar.. i'd suggest picking up the DK sampler first and trying the different levels green is mild, red is med, brown is strong.... if you're just switching from flavoreds, you may well not enjoy the brown label at all. It took a buddy of mine quite a while before he enjoyed the brown; but the red, he loved from the first puff.

yeah, A good idea to start with the red or green labels.
I received a Don Kiki sampler with my humidor purchase, it contained 15 red and green label cigars.
Good deal, 30 bucks for the humi(20-25 count), 15 cigars and a cutter.
