Party cigars

My brother and his girlfriend are graduating this summer. We're throwing them a party, and what better way to celebrate the occasion than some cigars. I'm tending the smoker and grill all day, so I'll be out puffing for a while.
My question is what should I buy for the others to smoke? Most of them are either cigarette smokers or don't know what a good cigar is. The kind of people that think Swishers are awesome.
Naturally, I don't want to spend a whole lot, but I figure I'll need 20 cigars or so for the partygoers, and a good few for myself. I've got myself figured out, but I don't want to waste good sticks on people that can't tell the difference between White Owls and Rocky Patels.
I have no set spending limit for the party sticks, but I don't think it's wise to go with anything too spendy, as I don't want to hurt someone that leaves a nice stick in an ashtray to die a premature death.

I usually go with 5 vegas golds, Gurkha park avenues, or RP connecticuts when I need something like that.

If they dont smoke cigars, then I wouldnt even get them the 5 Vegas. I'd keep those for myself. But fot $1.60 a stick, no way you go wrong with those sticks. Great price and great stick.

then get a sampler of swisher sweets and white owls. i only give hand-made-long-filler cigars to people that actually care about cigars.wannabe.otaku:....Most of them are either cigarette smokers or don't know what a good cigar is.

not only that, but some poor soul (that you didnt invite) will probably try to spit one open and refill it with their own smokables.

+1. Mild enough for noobs, tasty enough for seasoned smokers. And at $50 a box for 20, not a whole lot that'll beat em price wise. I know the Nica Libre are similar in price for a box as well, so that'd be another good option.Russ55:Gurkha park avenues -
I don't mind the Park Avenues myself. I like the the 5 Vegas sampler. I'll have to get those for myself. I'd hate to see one die, but at $2 a stick, it's not a big loss.
Any other recommendations?

I went ahead and ordered the Dream Team sampler, which is the same as the one Gypsy posted, but at a different price. I talked to Kelly and she said that the one Gypsy linked to wasn't in the system. No big deal. I got the Cain Sampler for myself. Don't tell the wife, though. She'd freak out that I spent $100 on smokes. At least everyone makes their deliveries before she gets home, LOL.
Thanks guys.

It's a celebration, man. I have to play the part of a well-educated gentleman without being book educated past High School (yet). That, and I'm generous. I just don't want to go broke being generous.

Well shoot, I've been smoking cigars for a couple years now and have sampled a fairly wide variety, but I can't tell the difference between a White Owl and a Rocky Patel.wannabe.otaku:...people that can't tell the difference between White Owls and Rocky Patels.![Stick out tongue [:P]](/cs/emoticons/emotion-4.gif)
