Yes, even the best gas station cigars are a far cry from long filler premiums. Don't inhale cigar smoke, there's no need to and a sore throat will ruin your experience. Smoke only when you have adequate time to relax. Alcoholic beverages are a fine accompaniment to good cigars, but certain non-alcoholic drinks work as well. Ice cold Cola, Root Beer, or a Ginger Ale like Vernor's works well.
