Just reading some threads and got me thinking about my first box purchase. Mine was over twenty years ago and was a box of Don Tomas Robustos from Ted's Pipe Shoppe here in Tulsa. Nicaraguan cigars were basically crap back then. Dominican cigars were the thing, Honduran cigars were decent, and Jamaican cigars were still available. What cigar made you take the big leap to make a box purchase?.....

What was your first box purchase.....
Like my father before me, I will work the land,
And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.

A 15 ct box of Padilla Vintage Reserve about 2 1/2 yrs ago.
That was a really nice cigar! Wish they still made them.Last edited by Brimy; 04-17-2017 at 01:07 PM.

Alec Bradley Maxx! A friend gave me one and it was THE cigar that got me hooked. I bought a box after smoking one. Still one of my favorites to this day.

Mine was the Jericho Hill 12 Honest Men, just a month or 2 ago
I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.

My first actual box was a box of Anejos, however several bundles pre-date that purchase.

I think it was Fuente Churchill Maduros. If not it was EP Carillo EL 2012.

First box purchase was early '14, and it was Punch Elites (corona). Still love me some Punch. First cigar that made me pay the extra for a box from a b&m, was the LGC Serie R Esteli, and that's still the best $5 cigar I've ever had
