Davidoff Family of Cigars

[ggiese]

I will definitely try the Hemingway.

There ya go, sparky. I'm glad you did not wait to hear from five others that you should try them.

You have not smoked more than 30 cigars - and you are already set on a single brand? Go to your tobacconist and get some variety. Try new smokes when they come out. Ask the store owner to recommend some smokes based on your preferred flavor profile. Branch out.

There are so many excellent smokes that are much less expensive than Davidoffs. When I was a complete newbie I went to a nice tobacco shop and noticed that the owner was smoking a very expensive Padrón 1926. As we were chatting I remarked that I couldn't bring myself to spend $30 on a cigar. His response? You don't need to. He proceeded to walk me around the humidor and recommend some cigars at 1/6th the cost. I found almost all of them to be excellent smokes. I appreciated his honesty and am now a regular in his lounge.

I liked Ambos Mundo by Garcia & Garcia.

I am willing to branch out, but I dont wanna spend money on a bad stogie.

Once I get the cash, I will be getting into a good sampler from one of the guys. I cant wait.

It's inevitable - you will spend money on a "bad stogie".

I would rather someone buy it for me, with the both of us not knowing its a bad smoke.

Why am I not surprised.

It's all part of the hobby, and one that I like a lot. I really enjoy trying new smokes to see if they are anything I like, as it's about the experience.

Hell, to this day I still enjoy every cigar I smoke, whether it is one that I like or something new that doesn't bode well with me. I still enjoy the experience of smoking each individual cigar that I set fire to. The only way you will find 'YOUR' tastes is by trying a bunch of different cigars, both the good and bad. Otherwise, your just smoking what others like and tell you to and that is what is called a TOOL. Don't be a TOOL.

If a tool is already a tool - how can one change it into something that is other than a tool?
