Cigar 101 noob question

[hed]

That's what badwhale said in the second post in this thread.

My bad, I missed that.

If cigars are expensive for you, may wish to avoid the Padron 1926's in the first place.

I've read good things about Padron and the sampler seemed like a good buy. Certainly not an everyday smoke for me, but sometimes you just have to splurge a bit for special occasions.

I'm about as green as you can get when it comes to cigars, but by doing a lot of reading on this site, I have recently discovered some cigars I really enjoy at well under $5 per stick.

I agree. And with the exception of the Padrons and one or two others, all of my purchases (boxes, samplers, bundles) average < $5 per.
