Im probly one of the youngest members in here and am learning more each day started smokin cigars about 2 years ago enjoying summer nights with my best friend and a few cigars. That best friend joined the air force and has been gone for about 11 months but is finally comin home for chistmas and new years and cant wait to light up a few just like old times. He is soon to be stationed in colorado which he finally will be able to have a humidor. I bought him a 50 Ct humi for chistmas and would like to put some good smokes in it for him. If anyone has any recomendations or anythings they feel would be a good addition that they would like to sell please email me at [email protected] also im just a college student with a part time job so im not exactly in the market for and 1926 padrons or opus x etc. etc. thanks for any help happy holidays - Jerry

What Burgess_B said, the only thing I might suggest in addition is 5 Vegas Gold (Mild) or 5 Vegas A ( Maduro, medium to full)

Yes the A is my favorite 5 Vegas. The Gold was one of my first cigars and as a "Newbie" I liked it, a bit too mild for my tastes now but still a great smoke, especially for those who do not yet know what they like. JMHO

The Oliva G series is a nice, inexpensive Cameroon stick, can be found cheap here

Do you know what your friend likes? You can probably get a sampler or two at very reasonable cost.

The first 2 sticks I picked up from cbid were the 5 Vegas Corona and the CAO Criollo Pato.

Both are what I'd consider good, everyday smokes. I've given quite a few Criollo's out to friends and I've never had a complaint. They're one of my favorites.

You can usually find 5'ers of each very cheap here.

As I mentioned, check out the sampler auctions. You can get different brands, wrappers, strengths, etc - including many similar to his likes - at very reasonable prices.
