I'm a beginner (Suggestions?)

[CoventryCat86]

So a beginning smoker asks for a few cigar suggestions. What's suggested?

Opus X

Davidoff

AF Anejo

Montecristos

Are these the smokes you folks were buying for your first cigars? Nobody wasted time with any $5 smokes?

(Yes a few reasonably priced cigars were suggested)

No, they weren't you dip$hit. When I first started smoking cigars, I wish someone had told me to try Davidoffs, Opus X and Añejos but instead, I wasted lots of money on $hitty $5 smokes.

Well I haven't been so fortunate to find them online. The cigar I really want to find online is the Arturo fuente 858 sun grown. I have never understood, are those seasonal?

Haha, alright I get it, you make a good point. I guess I haven't searched it for a while!

You can order them from Corona Cigars. They are my #1 supplier. I have always been able to find my favorite Fuente's when at the store. Online is showing the 8-5-8 sun grown in stock

I never buy Fuente product from them. But - anything Avo, including stuff you'll find nowhere else. Corona Gigar is the place!

Oh awesome, thanks guys. It's great to get a recommendation on an online store, I always get nervous ordering from a new place.

Oh awesome, thanks jerks (but in a good way.) It's great to get a recommendation on an online store, I always get nervous ordering from a new place.

fixed that for ya.

Wow this seems like a wonderful place to buy Fuente and Ashton cigars. There was a 5 pack of sun grown 8-5-8's for $31.50! Thanks for the link.

wait you met THE Mr Fuente? like the Arturo Fuente family? in ybor city? im in JAX i might need to make the trip!

Yeah I think when someone asks for good "beginner " cigars it can be mistaken for what is cheap. A thread searching for a cheap cigar is different entirely. There have been wonderful suggestions here, I'd like to see a beginner dislike an AF Anejo. Not all beginners are low on money.

this "hobby" is not a cheap one usually. even a small desk humi can run atleast $50 used and up, and up for new ones, all the humi accessories. and im sure just like me most of us have every kind of cutter, ashtreys, torches... etc. and if anyone dont like the exquiste smoke that is the AF Anejo ... they should stick to the marlboros.

that being said. you asked for suggestions for smokes. and judging by what was suggested people were giving you some of their favorites. you dont have to try them at all let alone all at once. everything that was suggested is a great smoke. if you want something cheap... try a black and mild.

rant over... thank you for reading
