Hey all, so I'm recently getting into cigars after six years smoking a pipe, really enjoying mild-medium smokes...

Would something like this be a good start?

4 are decent. Samplers are a good way cuz you may find something tickles your fancy that you might not normally purchase and theses smaller ones usually go cheap here.

The Tri, La Reloba, and Ave Maria are good smokes.

- I like the nub cameroon as well

Why would they put an acid in there? If you get any acid cigars they have to go in a separate container. They will impose their dirty will on your other smokes

Not to disagree with my fellow posters, but I see 7 possibly eight decent cigars in that lineup.

1 - Alec Bradley Maxx The Fix

1 - Ave Maria Lionheart

1 - Don Pepin Garcia La Reloba Habano Robusto

1 - Graycliff 1666 Pirate Torpedo

1 - The Griffin's Toro (IDK?????)

1 - Montesino Robusto

1 - Nub by Oliva Cameroon 460

1 - Tatuaje El Triunfador #4

And For the money I think its a very good deal, Also since it sounds like you may be trying to find your taste, The others not in this list should also help you find your likes and dislikes.. IMO

I try to not comment on sticks I haven't tried so that's why I say 4. Don't care for the 1666 myself, its not bad just not that much there.

No you would be smoking them to see if they fit your flavor profile.

Think of it as going to a restraunt where theres a variety of food available

from hot dogs

to pizza

chinese food,

tofu

chocolate covered locust, (yea thats the acid)

and so on

while one guy might love chinese

another guy might love hot dogs

its all a learning experience and only you can decide what you like.

You can also look at reviews, price range and product descriptions for each stick.

Happy smoking

Oh he's got it and then some. Sound wasn't mixed real well but tha venue isn't set up for tha volume! I tried to like those 1666, I bought a 10 pack here when they came out and tried 5 at different intervals of rest and nadda. Other 5 went to Iraq.

Does Ted still end his show shooting his guitar with his bow?

DRX 1666 not much there - The OP said he liked mild/med.....

Samplers are a great way to find what you like. So is getting bombed.

This isn't really a tiny venue but not large.

You could google Britt festival (jacksonville oregon) they prolly have pics. This is the heaviest band they've had......I want to see Chris Isaak and Willie Nelson out of who's left to play this year.

SEE THAT NOOB,

Me and ZRX both have varying opinions on the Graycliff 1666. Only one way to find out if "you" like it...............

ZRX also likes slutty women with big tits, and thats where we agree.

Hey no big words here, I actually had to look that one up....

I guess what this thread shows is that each one of us will have our own likes and dislikes. Some guys probably wouldnt find two smokes in there that theyd be wanting to buy. So theres no right or wrong, its all shades of grey. Except when it comes to big tits.......I think were all on board for that one. Peace out
