Monte White. You get the classic brand name recognition plus it's a real nice mild smoke. Or a Taboo twist! I keep fogetting to recomend these to people,

Great milder smoke. Very creamy. Sancho Panza Double Maduro or Indian Tabac Maduro would be good options too.

Funny this topic came up as my girlfriend smoked her first cigar last night and liked it a lot.

She had an AF Don Carlos No 4. It was between that and an AF Hemingway. I think I made a good call.

Perdomo Lot 23. Worked on me and a couple of other people I know.

5 Vegas Gold also, mild yet still a lot of flavor. My wife loved it.

I'm going to suggest a slightly different approach. Instead of a mild cigar, I would offer them something medium to full bodied, but still smooth. My reasoning is that new smokers tend to favor maduros and stronger cigars. I know in my case, it wasn't until I had been smoking a while that I learned to appreciate the refined subtlety of a good mild cigar.

just be careful not to get anything harsh. I'd recommend a PAM but that's a little pricey for a first-timer.

Just give him a Thompson's Tampa and a kick in the nuts... That's how I got started!!!

It's all up hill from there!!!

I had Macanudos and the like. I attribute the fact that I never got into cigar smoking until late in life to this unfortunate turn of events. A standard Padron pushed me down the slope.

Arturo Fuente Short Story or 858 Natural.

I still smoke them today because they are that good.

A good mild, inexpensive cigar is Indian Tabac Limited Reserve
