mikek Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 A fresh rolled one that was brought back from Cuba years ago,have no idea who rolled it. It was A beautiful piece of work,very complex,not as full bodied as the cigars I was smokeing at the time,nubbed it!
BRAC Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Had better Habanos since, but the first one that really wowed me was a Cohiba Siglo II.
Sophistic Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 had smoked just a couple of unimpressive partagas, r&js and ncs till a monte #5 blew me away with the typical ntense coffee-chocolate montecristo flavor. an extensive tour de habanos later, monte ist still my favorite brand.
Habana Mike Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 For me it was the first Cuban cigar I smoked back in the early '90s. Had just recently started smoking cigars and a buddy handed me a cello-wrapper Partagas on a fishing trip. Not sure the exact model (probably one of Super Partagas, Aristocrat, Mille Fleurs or Petite Coronas Especiales based on my recollection of the size). Super dark, firm and oily. Rich, strong, full and earthy - totally wowed me!
cigarbreak Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Bolivar Gold Medal...Tried it for the very first time a couple months ago and was blown away. Loved the size and ring gauge too.
finecigar Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Honestly they all wowed me but one of my first if I can remember right was a BBF.. And yes I still smoke them from time to time but don't find the same enjoyment with ones of recent
LLC Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 It was a long time ago but the Cohiba Siglo III was the one that made me get more serious about cigars.

MrGTO Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 RyJ Churchill down in the BVI. Went down with my travel case of NCs for sister in laws wedding. Found a shop with some CCs didn't touch the NCs all week!
dubleuhb Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Mine was an H. Upmann, not sure what it was but it was my first Cuban. Was across the river in Canada and this was back when stores would have a small humidor. At the time I decided to splurge on one. Bought one en tubo to be enjoyed later, I did....immensely ! 1
sheppsea Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Monte No. 2 - this was the first cigar that completely blew me away
TheLiquidGator Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Lusitania was my first wow experience. That is one hell of a start! 1
ogus Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 The first was a RJ Churchill back in 1999. Been hooked ever since. that's what started me in CC
ogus Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 looking forward to thread cigars that consistently wow you that I should purchase
earthson Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 07 or 08 RASS. Still amazed at the level of complexity these smokes display, their consistency from box to box, and the perfect amount of nicotine that leaves me satisfied!
LeafLover Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 was as Monte 2. spent three years searching for that experience again. never found it. now I don't even bother with Monte 2. I do have couple boxes of especiales no.2 though. they are pretty good. Monte has been my least favorite marca all due to inconsistency.
leftimatic Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 My first cigar period was a Punch Punch, really enjoyed that. In Cuba at the time, maybe that's what sold me. Only had one since but that is going to change.
Laynard Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 The first Habano that wowed me was my first Habano, period. Boli PC. Bought a box soon after and vow to always have them in stock.
