Hey son….nice to hear of your interest in cigars. I hope you will explore, and enjoy. There is an entire culture around cigars, and generally you will find people very willing to help you as a first time smoker. First, find a cigar/tobacco store and ask. People are passionate about cigars, and enjoy helping newcomers learn. Just tell them your new and want to try a cigar, and they can make some recommendations. (Don’t spend a lot at first….$7 or $8 is more than enough for a good cigar to try.) Generally, you need to know about strength/flavor, size, and shape. Start with something fairly mild when it comes to strength…just to get used to it. As far as size goes, up to you. Dad likes a big thick smoke, but you might want something smaller. Remember a big cigar will take longer to smoke, so think about how much time you will have. Shape is mostly personal preference. I usually recommend a Macanudo Cafe to boys who are wanting to try one. You will want a torch to light it if possible (a regular lighter is okay if that’s easiest, but people may roll their eyes at you!) Personally, I don’t use a cigar cutter. Too much shit to carry around. I just bite the tip off if necessary. Watch some youtube videos about how to light a cigar.That can take some practice! When you take a hit, draw the smoke into your mouth. Taste it, sit with it for a moment, then exhale. The biggest mistake people make is treating like a cigarette and inhaling. Don’t inhale! You will regret it. Go slow….take your time with it. You may feel a little queasy, or lightheaded….normal, but stop if it gets to be too much. Always ask a dad for help.
