Basics for new cigar smokers. The purpose of smoking a cigar is to slow down, relax and enjoy the experience. If you’re new to cigar smoking, then you may want to do some research on what type of cigar will be best for you.

First, choose a flavor that suits you. Some of the flavors  you will find are: nutty, smoky, coffee, bitter, woodsy, and sweet. Also ask about how strong that flavor is. 

The next consideration is the size of the cigar. If you have an hour or two to smoke, you can choose a larger cigar. If you only have a short time, then choose a cigar that is five inches with a smaller diameter. Cigars are measured in inches for length and ring size for diameter.

Perhaps the most important consideration when choosing a cigar is quality. Certainly, fresh, hand rolled cigars are going to be a much higher quality of those cigars that you will find in the drug store.
