14 - (NC) Dutch Masters from my Grampa's Liquor Store (49er Bottle Shop)

20 - (CC) Monte #2 after returning home from Desert Storm

Who are you kidding tobii... You couldnt have answered it even if it was "what Year" That was before numbers were invented or even record of time!!

Good to hear all your first experiences. I wouldnt have guessed that many of you started cigars later in life as you had. to all of you that started in the 30s and 40s, did you smoke cigarettes before that? did cigars replace them or do you smoke both now?

Well my first cigar would have to be a swisher sweet or Havatampa in my teens. At about 21 I had a Jose Piedra CC and a small Punch the same day (don't remember which was first) in Canada. My first nc was probably a Macanudo Portafino around the same time.

CC- Never

I smoked cigarettes as a dumb teenager who wanted to fit in. In college I couldn't afford them hence smoking Swisher cigarellos.

I rarely smoked them at all after a few years until given a Macanudo Robusto.

NC - 18, Aliados Robusto De Luxe Maduro...Nothing special at all. Avoid at all costs!

CC - 17 Rafael Gonzalez M. Panetelas Extra from 98. Damn...I mean DAMN! These cigars are awesome. They have a good taste and aroma is so amazing that I can't be sniffing my fingers after smoking one of these.

Found them from the basement. Propably left by my father.

My first CC I was 26. It was a Cohiba, and probably fake. That was the height of the 90's cigar boom. It was the night before my wedding.
NC some cheap trashy cigar in high school.

07-09-2009, 02:34 PM

NC-25 Don't know and it was an one time thing back then, but left my mouth in shambles the next day (I'd been drinking with some buddies). Didn't really start smoking until I was 30.
CC-30 First known to be authentic one was a Partagas Short gifted to me.

shilala · 07-09-2009, 02:39 PM

NC - Middleton Cherries. Got them at the convenience store.
CC - Don't remember what it was, but I think it may have came from Dan (dball).

bigloo · 07-09-2009, 04:27 PM
