Why cigars?
Five years ago I went to cuba with a bunch of friends from school . My friend introduced me to cigars. He wasn't a smoker just like me. I had asked him why he smoked cigars, since he didn't regularly smoke. He told me that I smoke cigars for the taste. I decided to try one out for myself. My friend told me to try a Romeo and Juliet because it wasn't as harsh a taste as some of the stronger ones. From the moment I lit the cigar that smooth cuban tabaco hit my tongue with such a lusious flavor.
The key to enjoying a cigar was not to take it down your lungs, but to keep it on your tongue. There are many different types of cigars. Most cigars come from Cuba, Domenican Republic, and Necargua, some are also made in the U.S. It is said that the best tasting Cigars come from Cuba, I would have to agree with that.
