Non-offensive cigar? Any?

We often entertain ...

If it's your place, like it sounds, then they can deal with it. I had a apartment full of straight edge kids the other day (don't drink or smoke) and you would be amazed at how clowdy my apartment gets. None of them said a word because it's my place and I do what I want. They respect it. I had a girl one time complain about something in my apartment. I didn't even know her. She got the appropriate lashing.

I am sure this is not what you are looking for but it was the first thing I thought of when I read your post. Of course I have never had these

I would echo the comments of the others here. It is your place and you are hosting (aka paying for the food, drink etc.) so do what you want.

By outdoors I mean my backyard patio and the smoke can easily find it's way into the house. My guests are friends and family and as a host I do not like to offend. This does not mean I stop smoking, just wondering if there are some cigars that are less offensive. This may be a issue of the type or quality of the cigar. Has anyone received a positive reaction from a non-smoker?

So far, the cigars I have enjoyed the most was the HDM Excalibur (maduro and natural), the Oliva G series maduro and the El Rey Del Mundo Robusto, also maduro. I did buy a mild sampler pack from CI, but did not care for them.

On deck, waiting in the humidor is the Excalibur Dark Night, Rocky Patel Connecticut, Fonseca Vintage and 5 Vegas Alpha.

Ones that I have my eye on to buy next is the La Gloria Torpedo Maduro and the CAO Brazillia.

I have also tried different drinks with the cigar and find that it make a huge difference. I had a coffee with the Excalibur Maduro and that was just perfect.

First thing's first - I agree with earlier posters. You're outside and it's your house. Let them adjust to you.

Secondly ... my wife isn't a fan of the odor, and I find that she finds the odor of milder cigars to be less objectionable. It's when I smoke something really full-bodied that she really turns her nose up.

But the simple fact is that someone who doesn't enjoy smoking isn't going to enjoy the smell of smoke. There's no cigar that's going to change that.

I echo what has already been said. When I go to someone's house who does not smoke, I don't smoke. I respect the host/hostess will not do something in "their area" that they may not feel comfortable. However when those same people come to "my area" I don't hesitate a second to do what I enjoy, which sometimes looks like this: or , actually sometimes it looks like this also and but only when I am in my "devil went down to Georgia" mood

good luck finding a "Non-offensive cigar" with no smoke smell.

Even the sweetest smelling cigar will be offensive to someone who is against "smoking."
