    Some of us have to work... unlike you obviously...

    Alright, so I was thinking back the other day on this great pasttime of ours, and got to reminiscing about the first cigar I smoked and the one that hooked me. These are two different cigars, but they are still two of my top 5 smokes, and ones I enjoy as often as possible. They are from two well known companies.

    The question is, what was my first? And which one hooked me? Have to get the first, will add a bonus if you can get both. I'll slow down on the posting to allow some guesses. I'll check this again tomorrow night and if no one is close, I'll give a hint. Winner will get at least a 5 pack of some of my current favorites. First person to name my first will be announced after I hit 500.

    If I had to guess, I'd say your first was a 'real Cuban' gifted from a friend after an evening of drinks. You probably inhaled some and hurled shortly afterwards XD


    As to what got you hooked, I'll have to sao Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real. You love everything about this cigar - flavor, burn, draw...

    No clue, but first was a Montecristo and the one that got you hooked was a R&J Habana Reserve.

    Well F*** me... I forgot about discussing this before and the search feature. D*** you search button! So I'm closing this. Mrpillow won... No point in drawing it out. Way too easy. PM me your info, I'll get a package out first of next week when I get back home.

    First: Swisher Grape flavored. Hooked: Backwoods.

    I kid, I'm thinking that your first was a Montecristo White and the one that hooked you was a Romeo y Julieta 1875.

    This was close, but mrpillow already nailed it. Monte White WAS one of my first... may have said that before, forgetting about the drunken Cuban that about killed me. And RyJ Reserva Real hooked me. I need to think these contests out better. Now to hurry up and hit 500.

    Not really. Everyone probably woulda done the same thing. haha. Congrats to mrpillow, he made the quickest use of it. Pretty good searching too, because it took me a minute to find the old post. When I saw how quick it was answered, i reallized I must have discussed it prev. All's fair in the contests! Congrats again pillow, and I'll get that box out probably Tuesday.

    As a matter of fact, you lose man points for asking for doll points...
