Hey, I'm new to the cigar world. I'm going to a local shop tonight and was wondering if anyone had some good suggestions for a mild cigar that is not outrageously priced.

CAO Gold
Cusano 18 Double Connecticut

at summit mall? if so, the NUB connecticut, Arturo Fuente 8-5-8 candela.

also those guys are good. just tell them you are still learning and that you want a resonably priced cigar that is mild to medium in body. if you arent going to that shop, see the above post.

worst case: call me from the walk in humidor. im home all night.

Will do. Have you smoked your nub yet? You should come out and chill for a little bit.

For mild my recommendations are Ashton Classic, Perdomo Lot 23, Perdomo Champagne and 5 Vegas Gold.

i think that all those suggestions are great. i think you can also look on the suggestions in the catalog on ccom and you can pick your strength and such. when you get to the shop tell them that you are just starting out you have a budget of x dollars and tell them what you are looking for. if its a good shop and the guy is in a good mood im sure they will be very beneficial for you. enjoy.............. i look forward to hearing what you got and what you think about them. what cigars have you smoked in the past? which ones did you like?

Sancho Panza: fantastic cigar for a good price Gurkha (?): I'm not to sure which it was but it was the best cigar I've had. I'm extremely new, this is it.

Thanks for the spec Matt, I couldn't remember. Last night I went with the Nub Connecticut. I really enjoyed it. It was exactly what I was looking for. It was a great end to a stressful hectic day. The flavor was smooth and creamy, yet not overpowering. I had an after-taste of various spices, none of which I could put my finger on. It lasted and hour and ten minutes. Perfect amount of relaxation without killing my entire night. Outside of having to correct my burn, I had no issues with the cigar. I will definitly be purchasing more of these in the future. Not to mention that I met some interesting people while I was at the shop chilling and I scored Kuzi a couple of Arturo Fuente Opus X.
