Cigars are so 90’s
Well, if you concern yourself with such things, you probably shouldn’t smoke them then. I enjoy it, and really wouldn’t care if I was the only person on earth who did.

Everyone dies of something. George Burns smoked several cigars per day, and lived to be 100. Not sure if people realize this, but you don’t inhale cigars, the way you do cigarettes. Regardless, there are lots of cancer cases that have nothing to do with smoking anything.

Check Amazon. I got one with a sampler pack as a gift off Cigars International a few years back and that thing held up well. I just got a new one that holds more.

You wouldn’t happen to buy extra so you can sell me a few?

Two things to remember:
1) Don't inhale
2) If you're also drinking while smoking cigars, the cigar will make your hangover worse

The incidence of lung cancer among cigar smokers while less than cigarette. smokers is still much higher than non-smokers, even if u don’t “inhale”, you are breathing in the smoke you expended. Besides the obvious risk of cancer in the oral cavity, cigar smokers also have a very high incidence of esophageal cancer, the carcinogens in the smoke are absorbed by your saliva which you swallow repeatedly. While everyone dies of something, living a a significant portion of your life with impaired speech, visible facial disfigurement, unable to taste food, having to constantly drink water because your salvia glands were destroyed by radiation, or having to prepare all meals with a blender my actually be worse.

Well, I’m pretty much screwed anyway. I started dipping when I stopped smoking cigarettes when my oldest son was born in 1997. I’ve swallowed enough tobacco juice to float a battleship.

I don't think I would get into smoking them, but I wouldn't mind doing the clint eastwood thing of just holding them in my mouth and spitting on a dog's head. But, there was a Cuban cigar I smoked in Canada that was very expensive and extremely mild. If I know what that was I'd probably smoke them. Man, it was good.

Reason I wouldn't do it much is cause most of my relatives have died on lung cancer. mom, dad, 2 uncles, and some others.

In my experience the color of the cigar makes a difference; don't know exactly how. You'll need whiskey or bourbon with it. Best advice is ask the store associates.

Flor de Las Antilles by My Father. Won cigar of the year in 2016 and is about $8 a stick.
Not a bad stick, but shouldn’t have won cigar last year. It got that award because they spent a shite ton in advertising. The best cigar to hit the market in several years is the Aladino corona limitada.

Welp, it’s 4 Roses, La Gloria Cubana Gilded Age, and a bonfire tonight. Hope y’all are doing at least as well.
