The second question I had was how I can get him to try a few different sticks, because I know he will like some of the others. Got the answer to that as well. Lastly, I wanted to see if refrigerator storage was by any means proper to keep cigars.

If you say so...

I personally dont know if this method does anything at all but hes the most stubborn person youll ever meet and theres no tellin' him different. Next time I see him, I want to give him some legitimate reasons why Macanudos arent the only way to go. Not trying to change his tastes, the man likes what he likes, I just want to show him I know a little about cigars too. Thanks in advance guys.

You're what? 19?
Based on what you wrote, you're trying to exert some male dominance and gain recognition.
It's natural. Don't worry about it.
Probably not a battle worth fighting though, it'll most likely cost you more in the relationship than it's worth. So what if he likes Macanudos. Let him like them. Why try and change him, he's happy with what he's doing and smoking.
If you feel you must try and prove something to him, I would recommend gifting him a high end or vintage Macanudo (like one of the old Jamaican Macanudos) and not making a big deal out of it. But don't be surprised or disappointed if someone as stubborn as you imply him to be, might simply automatically discount your gift as "Crap" or is so set in his ways and tastes that any deviation from his normal flavor profile is "Crap".
Some things are just best left be.
