We know that cigar shopping can be intimidating when you are just getting started with the hobby, or attempting to buy for someone else. Here are a few basic rules of thumb. 1. When Shopping for someone that doesn't smoke very often, it is best to pick something that is milld. Some of our best selling lines of mild cigars are the Avo Classic Cigars, The Macanudo Brand,Ashton, or the CAO Cameroon. 2. If the person you are shopping for likes stronger cigars, you should look for a sungrown or a maduro wrapped cigar. Some sungrown cigars that are popular are the Ashton VSG and the Arturo Fuente Chateau Sungrown. Popular Maduro cigars are the Camacho Triple Maduro, The Diamond Crown Maduro, or Ashton Maduro. **If the person you are shopping for is a true Aficionado, or just wants to be, make sure to check out the Connoisseur's Corner! Or just call the store. | Shape
