ok here goes :

Firstly

- How much are you meant to inhale of the actual cigar smoke - i find it very thick and can make me light headed REALLY easily

- how old where you all when you started smoking cigars , i dont smoke ciggarettes im 19 and would you say 19 is too young (im asking this as you always see middle aged men smoking them or ... the godfather)?

- Ok -the cigar i smoked was a HAMLET, you will probably think this is a crap cigar - but you gotta start somewhere right ?!? What do you think is a good starting cigar ? What Cigars should i be looking out for and whats the difference .

- how come i always see people with unlighten cigars - just kinda chewing them ?

Thanks

You DON'T inhale them...you savor the flavor of the smoke...

You can start smoking cigars at any legal age (or before if you can get away with it...I musta been 16 or so when I first smoked a Havatampa...crap cigar)...but that was a few decades ago...I'm of legal age now...

Never heard of a Hamlet...I'm sure some of the other guys here, have...

And you don't want to chew the end if you can avoid it...sometimes you can't...a fine cigar should be sipped at...
