Montecristo, don't know the type but it was a robusto size I bought when my son was born. It was from JR online in one of those library humi's. My only regret was no saving 2 for he and I to share when he grows up.

A friend layed a Camacho on me. Even though my head spun, I knew I had to have more

Davidoff grabbed my attention and a Ashton VSG put the hook in.

First one to really capture my attention was a Gran Habano #3.
I never knew cigars could hold that kind of charm.
Been a downhill slide ever since (and a LOT of fun).

Anything Fuente. I have that family to thank for this wonderful hobby and believe me, they have me to thank for not having any willpower to resist the Fuente cigars....

My first premium was a Padron 3000 Maduro. I followed that with a PAM Exclusivo the following night. That was the beginning of the end, but it has been one hell of a ride so far.

A long Montecristo, way back in 2001 in Korea. No idea the vitola, maybe an A or Churchill, honestly I don't recall. When I came back into cigars in 2006, it was HDM Excalibur III that did it for me, man did my tastes suck.

My first Non Cuban, the ashton VSG envchantments, picked some up at a shop in caesars palace (not casa fuente) and I was hooked. Prior to that I had only smoked Cuban cigars.

I was hooked by Onyx Reserve. It's a cheapie, but I still love to smoke them from time to time. They just have a rich flavor that I enjoy.
