What is THE go-to cigar for a first time cigar smoker? I want to give cigars another try.

Try a Cohiba Red dot or an Arturo Fuentes Short story Hemingway.

First cigar or a few cigars to grab that won’t break the bank.

Fuente double chateau
These are fairly cheap and mild.

Rocky the edge.
Not a great cigar, but a cheap cigar that will expose you to a more robust flavor palette.

Curivari
Way underrated. These are legit and they are not expensive at all.

Southern draw kudzu
Cheap, great flavor.

The Hemingway short story is a great cigar BTW. Good luck finding an Andalusian bull.

My first cigar was a Cao MX2 which is awesome if you want something stronger. Arturo Fuente 858 is a good all-around cigar. 5 Vegas is a good brand to try some quality cigars at a decent price. I really like the 5 Vegas Gold.

When I was like 11 or 10, I stole a cigar from some old dudes stash. Big fat cigar, I remember being so excited about it.

Well..it made me so sick that when I think about it decades later I still get nauseated. I think that moment "ruined" tobacco for me.

I don’t know if there is a “The” beginner cigar. The first time I went to a cigar lounge with a buddy who was into them, he grabbed me an Illusione Epernay. Still keep a few around.

Would highly recommend avoiding medium to full bodied cigars if you’re trying to learn to like them. Something with a Connecticut wrapper should probably be your first pick. Smooth, light bodied, without a harsh finish.

Brick House Connecticut is my favorite.
Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 Connecticut is another good one.
