Would like to buy cigars and would like some recommendations on what to buy.  Any suggestions?

    Well first what do you like? Mild Medium or Full bodied? Maybe give us a few cigars you know you like so far and we can give some recommendations from there.

    I really enjoyed the Padilla 1948 in the corona gorda size.  Very flavorful and unique in that the cigar is rock hard but still draws pretty well.  I am now on a mission to try more cigars blended and produced by Pepin Garcia.  Sol Cubano Cuban Cabinet is a good all around cigar at a fair price but make sure it is not too moist as it will not burn well.

    Wow, where to start? A few questions if you don't mind :) First, what are your tastes? Do you like mild flavors or strong? Second, have you even tried cigars? (No offense meant, just helps to know). If not, the best school of thought is to start out slow, discover what your tastes are, then experiment from there.

    On the smooth side, I'd recommend 5 Vegas Gold or Cusano 18 conneticut. The C.Com house sampler is a great introduction as well, and will give you a wide range of nice flavor profiles at a reasonable price.

    Hope this helps a little, and welcome to the forums :D

    No offense taking. ;-)  Yes, I have been smoking cigars for a few years now.  I really enjoy the mild flavors.

    OK Buster I'm confused, you like mild but you like Padrons. Hmmm Padrons are pretty medium-full.

    I understand how you are confused.  Honestly I just picked out the last one that I smoked and really liked it.  I enjoy all and I am looking for other recommendations.

    Well I'd say give the 5 Vegas Classics a shot. The 601 line is also good. You might want to try the Rocky Patel Nicarao or the Nording as well.

    Hey maddy, since buster likes mild and the more Rubust Padrons I would suggest the 5 Vegas sampler with Classics, A's, and Miamis.. all fine smokes and sure to please.. I do believe..

    I actually meant to put the Gurkha Shaggy Foot on that list as I saw some similarities in it and the Padron 3000.

    If you liked the Padron maduro, I'll add the Oliva G maduro to the list. You might also try the Rocky Patel Vintage 1992 and Fusion Double Maduro. In the mild-medium department, give the Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real a try.

    Hey urbino, I just re-tried that Fusion Maduro Yes, very pleasant as are the 92.. Now with all these suggestions he's bound to be more cofused then before, either that or broke !! I think the second is more likely.. I know I went through a spending spree once I found all 'ya all..

    Heh. Thanks, I guess. Is that an accomplishment, or a signal that it's time to cut back on my meth habit?

    I don't think he recognizes lines unless they are white.
