First off I'm a very new person to this site but it is giving me a lot of great information and I'm appreciative. I'm 45 and only had first tried my first cigar a few weeks ago. I've always loved the smell of a good cigar.

What I would like to do is get some opinion on one what I start with mild or full-bodied since I know nothing,. And what should I start with in terms of brand and name. Without it costing me a fortune. So I figure something in the $8-$12 per cigar side.

Thanks in advance as I look forward to reading opinion and reasons of what I should start with

    Hey jeff. Welcome to cigar.com forum! I'm I'm the east bay tri valley area. My suggestion is to get some samplers going. If you're ever around to have a smoke together I can intro you to some stuff too.

    Hey Jeff..Welcome.. I have found that I have never been disappointed by anything by Arturo Fuentes. It doesn't have to be an Opus X, The regular line, Don Carlos, Hemingway, even Montesino. These (Montesino) can be gotten for under three bucks. Love them all. That is only one "brand". There is so much great stuff out there right now. Good luck on your quest for what will become your favorites.

    Welcome Jeff! Stick around and join the fun. I agree about the samplers but warn you about hanging out with this Jilu guy. He's dangerous.
