I'm graduating and I will be 18 by then and I want a really nice, super special, "you don't smoke these very often", cigar to celebrate it. Any suggestions?

Hi,

While I don't advocate smoking anything on a regular basis, I do occasionally really enjoy smoking a good stogie!

I don't have any particular recommendations for you, and hopefully someone will. But, I do want to note that there are ratings/reviews of cigars that can be found via clicking on the following links.

Congratulations in advance on your graduation!

Thanks!

Thank you!

You're welcome!

Have you ever smoked one before?

If you aren't used to it, a nice cuban or something will probably go to waste.

A nice cuban would definitely go to waste. As a first time smoker, (if that's what you are), I would suggest a CAO Gold or Brazilia, or a nice Montecristo Platinum. All will be fairly strong but not strong enough to knock you off your feet

You might like a Macanudo Baron de Rothschild natural. Stay away from any cigar that's listed as Robust unless you want a stronger taste.
