Which smoke sent you down the slippery slope?

A Rocky Patel Vintage 1990. I still remember distinctively tasting cherry about half way through and at that time had no idea cigars could give such flavor profiles. Needless to say that put me down the slope

Base jump...I like that, Josh.

It was a Nicaraguan Puro that my friend gave me May 31, 2009!
We were at a seminar together and he'd spent a couple hours
telling me about cigars, their nuances, their benefits, the difference
between puffing a cigar vs. inhaling cigarettes, how Michael Jordan
started smoking and why, etc....

That fateful day after our seminar he pulled out the stogie, taught
me how to light it, and the rest is history... I stumbled back to my
rental car, got the munchies while rushing back to LAX from Anaheim on
the 415 loving the rush that I got from that full bodied stick!

I was hooked brothers!
