PartiDude Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 First box was PSD#4 from mid 2009, purchased early 2010. Just smoked the last one about a month ago. Keep the empty box for posterity.
cottierm Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 It was a box of R&J Exhibicion no. 4 and they were... fakes! I still got them and smoke one from time to time just to remind me to be more careful with the online vendors! Best, Michel
riazp Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 My first box purchase was a box of 10 Monte 2s. then two weeks later it was a 10ct of PSD4s, then it was all downhill from there
asudevil08 Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 My first box was a 10 count of the Partagas Lusitania. I was more excited to receive that box of cigars than I was for Christmas morning.
Orion21 Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 My first box was a 10 count Montecristo Petit Edmundo. Many different boxes and a couple of years later I smoked the last one out of the 10 count and it was fantastic. Why? Because they were keep. I thought they were nothing special when I got them because I had smoked NC's and thought you can just smoke them right away. After letting them sit for a few months they turned into something special.
Tarks Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 Monte 4 on my first trip to Cuba back in 2002. It was all downhill from there!
bud65 Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 My first box was La Flor de Cano Preferidos, the first was a bit tight but they got better with age and the last was a true pleasure to smoke.
BonVivant Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 A box of Davidoff's Dom Perignon in 1984, Paris, France.
Murri Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 A box of Rafael González Panetelas Extra from a local B&M. For my wife and I, we wanted to try something small together. Bad choice, about half were so plugged we couldn't smoke them. Luckily I didn't give up. Have never tried Rafael González again.
CBL Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 My first box was Monty 4 NOV07 bought in March 2008. Five months later I bought another box of the same cigar, haven't had a box since but I'm hoping on picking up a HQ or PSP box one of these days!
randomhero1090 Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 I believe it was March 2011. Got a cab of BBFs (May 10) and a 10ct box of RyJ Short Churches (Mar 10). Just so happened that I had a son born in March of 2010, so the box of RyJs is going down for a LONG nap. Up until then, just fivers, couple vacation pickups and some smokes from friends.
dan5974 Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 Rafael Gonzalez panetelas extra about 8 years ago.I guess thats why I have a soft spot for that marca.I hate that most of the sizes are discontinued,but am looking forward to the perlas when I can get my hands on them.
Azksig Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 It was a box of H Upmann coronas major in the alumunium tubes. That was in 2003 or 2004.
sblevit Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 Several five packs of Monty 3s purchased in Florence in 1995. Wish I still had them.
khomeinist Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 I bought three boxes: Bolivar Royal Corona, Montecristo #2, and Partagas SD4. I also bought some Cohiba Esplendido and Partagas Lusitania petacas. London Heathrow Duty Free. Many years ago. The BRC were the pick of that litter but I will never forget smoking a Lusitania in the smoking lounge with full-on jet lag.
ZinZan Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 My first box was Partags Corona Senior, did a split box with some of my friends. Didnt even have a humidor, finished it within a couple months. Subsequently was PSP2 and Monte 2 boxes of 10s, which i have a couple of sticks of each and they are smoking beautifully. Bought it off Kualu Lumpur duty free.
Ethernut Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 Actually I think I bought a crap-ton of singles from Czar as a first CC purchase by my first box was Monte #4's. I think I have a stupid thread somewhere where I'm asking about smoking them too young. (I know nothing about cigars).. :-) been a journey for sure
headstand Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 Boli Beli Fino in SLB. I will nursing that box for a long time...
bazookajoe Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 Just bought a box of bhk52. Looking forward to receiving that package Its a start of many more to come Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk
Len Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 If I remember right, it was a box of Bolivar Inmensas.
Ryan Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 First box I bought was R&J Clarines in Marrakesh duty-free on the way back from my honeymoon in 2001. Smoked the last ones with my Father-in-law about 4 years ago. Got them because they were cheap, about 20 euro for the box. The next boxes were R&J no.1 and 2 in Gibraltar in 2003, I got a single Upmann Monarch that day and haven't looked back..
rusty Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 Sancho Panza Non-plus from memory circa 1999- 2000 cant quite remember really enjoyed these at the time not a plug amongst them which was rare back then
partifan Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 First box purchase was actually 3 boxes. Partagas 898 and Shorts in 25 and Lusitanias in 10. I no longer am that disproportionally Partagas in my collection, but it is my favorite marca.
