What was your first box purchase?
 

So I’ve been smoking for about 8 months now and am still deciding on my first box purchase both NC and CC still. I think some of my top contenders are Hoyo I’ve had the black and like them but I want to try the gold and silver to see how they compare but I really like them and they are a good price. Possibly brickhouse I’ve had a few and really liked them too. Cuban wise I’m pretty limited and have only had about 7-8 With so far my favorite being the PSD4. I want my first boxes to be kinda special. So I was curious what everyone else’s first boxes were!

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

All good picks guys!

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

Not absolutely sure. I’ll guess:

NC: Excalibur
CC: RASSC

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

NC: Tatuaje Franks
CC: Boli Gold Medals or PLPC cant remember

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

NC: El Rico Habano--one NC that ages beautifully for years and years--still like them.
CC: Bolivar PC

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

CC: I can't remember, but I bought a box of Monte #3's, PSD4's, Montecristo EL Robusto, and Cohiba Sublimes for my first boxes I think.
NC: La Escepcion EL 2009

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

NC: Gran Habano Imperiales Corojo
CC: Bolivar Belicosos Finos

The Gran Habano is a great golfing cigar -- sturdy wrapper and will last me for 9 holes. It's also a great cigar for road trips -- the wrapper can withstand my metal-pronged ashtray that I use in the car :)

The BBF is just an all-around great cigar.

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

NC:
La Vieja Habana the Early Years Silencios
La Aroma de Cuba Robustos

CC - Bolivar PC

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

If my memory serves me correctly.

CC - HUp Mag 48

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

Oh, well my CC box came a few years later then the Carlos Torano and it was a box of Vega Robaina No 2’s. That was 2008?

Now on the NC box, I didn’t count my Thompson humidor with 25 Thompson cigars as technically that was my first non single cigar purchase but quickly followed by a CI sampler with a humidor and good thing as the Thompson’s I got were terrible.

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

First NC box was either Diesel Unholy Cocktail or Ramon Bueso GTP. Can't remember which, but I caught a smokin deal within my first month on the devil site. Didnt have room at that time for that many, but the addiction was full-bore at that time.

Still haven't bought a box of CC. Pretty sparce around these parts, so when the opportunity presents itself I'll just grab a couple of sticks at a time. I try to devote funds to something I can lay my hands on again relatively easily...

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

I smoked cigars a long time before I started buying boxes. I seldom bought more than five of anything and as long as my desktop humidor was somewhat full I was at peace. Then I stumbled onto this Club Stogie place and things just went to hell. :D

First box purchases:

NC - Padron Delicias Maduro

CC - RASS

You know, I still have a Blazer Torch from a group buy Da Klugs put together back then. One of the last Blazers before they put the blasted child lock thing on them. :tu

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

I think that my first NC purchase was Don Pepin Blue Label. My first CC box purchase was Partagas Coronas.

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

Has anyone had the hoyo gold or silver and if so how does it compare to the black?

Re: What was your first box purchase?
 

I don't know why they did that, Bill, they took a product that didn't need fixing and they broke it. :D

Chayse! Let's ride bikes! :)

First box was Arturo Fuente Chateau Fuentes (Maduro), from Iwan Ries in Chicago (1980)
