Buy this cigar.
Make yourself a pot of coffee or pour yourself a double of something brown and 12 or so years old.
Light. Enjoy.
Don't smoke it too hard when it's starting or it'll bite you. Once you get to the middle of this cigar, it's almost creamy. Joy for less than $6. You can't beat it.

I'm a sucker for maduro wrappers. I'll be sure to be getting my hands on a couple of these.

I'm not a big maduro guy, but I really like these toilet-paper El Reys. I have smoked them on many occasions over the last 10yrs or so.
When I go to a cigar store to buy a regular cigar to smoke, I pretty much always check for Bahia Gold, which they pretty much never have. Then I usually get a Padron. I get a cheap one if I'm gonna be walking, and I get an expensive one if I'm gonna be sitting.

Are you supposed to inhale when you smoke cigars? Or do you just roll the smoke around a bit in your mouth so that you can get a taste for its flavor?
I tried inhaling a drag one time and it felt like being trapped in the Reichstag as it was burning to the ground. Really uncomfortable.
I tend to stay away from all smokeable goods since my lungs have already been damaged by the copious amounts of weed and cigarettes I've already inspired in my short lifespan.

I smoked Phillies for a while when I quit smoking and thought they were okay. I got lucky with two glass tubed-Optimo cigars at a gas station once. Probably one of the few that really smoked the cigar as it was. I liked those a lot, but the other Optimos I had were pretty horrible.
I saw Andy from Bottomless Pit/Silkworm smoking one before Bottomless Pit's set at Rubber Gloves. Was very impressed. First time I've seen anybody smoke one other than my dad, uncle, and the few people I rarely trick into smoking them with me.
Because of this thread I think I'll buy one in a few days. They're a little harder for me now though now that I'm back on the cigarettes.

I enjoy the Bahia Gold line. It doesn't taste like the simple combination of Sumatra Wrapper and Nicaraguan fillers.
The best cigar I've had in a long time was, when I was in Jamaica, riding a horse through the jungle/mountains to travel to a small village, looking at the coast of Cuba while smoking a double maduro Hoyo de Monterrey Cuban cigar. My beard smelled for 3 days despite my efforts to wash. Awesome.
