First cigar I purchased was the Ave Maria. First cigar my wife purchased for me was a Punisher. I was unsure about how to go about smoking a cigar so there they sat in her humidor for a bit while I read articles. I went to my B&M and asked a friend who works there what I should try first. He sold me an Alec Bradley harvest select 97. I was not sure if I had enjoyed it or not. The whole idea of breathe in smoke but not inhale it was hard for me to grasp for a bit. Now I realize most Alec Bradleys are just no my thing flavor profile wise. Now the Ave Maria and Punshier those hit the spot.
