What was your first? - Page 4

Like many of you, Backwoods was my first. Smoked it during a poker game in the living room of my tiny apartment shortly after high school.

Some years later, my moment of conversion was, I believe, a Romeo y Julieta (NC) during the cigar craze of the 1990s.

Mine was an unbanded stick picked up with some friends on vacation to OBX.

My very first cigar was a Camacho Triple Maduro that my friends thought would be funny to give to a novice.

Did it go the way they thought it would?

Some dog rocket that the local b & m owner's wife picked out for me. After she clipped and helped light the wretched thing, the owner commented that he'd not have picked that cigar - ever. If she didn't look like she could not ever possibly drown, I'd have tried to pick for myself!
