Never knew he smoked.

I've got a friend who graduated from the same high school as me. He's one of those guys who just seems to hang around in the same circles, and I end up seeing him everywhere. He's a regular at my favorite bar, so we see him there frequently. We've also randomly seen him in distant places like camping in Maine or Vermont.

That said, my wife and I saw him at the bar the other day, and he invited us over for drinks. As we were walking out to the porch, he offered me a cigar. "Sure, I'd like a cigar" I said. We got to chatting and he's been smoking for a little while now, but has no idea what to look for. He seems to just like smoking cigars.

The cigars he had were mostly General cigar brands, but he had one Cuban. I wasn't going to smoke his only Cuban, so I picked out a Rocky Patel Vintage 99 Conn. Not my typical smoke, but I had a nice time.

He had a lot of questions, and implied it was hard to be taken seriously as a newer smoker in a cigar shop. I gave him what little bit of info I could without giving him a tour of my humidor.

Well, next week, he's coming over so I can offer him a cigar or two. And a tour of my humidor.
