First time and you bought a box of 25??

@@aloofmusician856 - strange question. I’d enjoyed cigars before but not of the quality of Montecristo, Cuaba and Cohiba. Since I was newly very rich I could afford them. Still rich and smoking good cigars.

@@rightmarker1 Ah I see, I'm only young and not so rich, so the idea of buying a box of cigars was unimaginable, thanks for clarifying though. I would buy cheaper cigars if I knew where to find them!

@@aloofmusician856 never buy cheap. Buy cheap you gey cheap. Buy one good one and savor it slowly after a meal, enjoy your journey.

@@chunkychinn Interesting take, thank you, I just thought that Cubans were more expensive than new world ones simply because of the fact that they're cuban. It's like paying a premium for a branded product when the product unbranded could be bought for less.

@@GeneralSocietyInc I am actually not a huge cigar smoker by any stretch but I do like to indulge in the later summer month. But funny story, I gave my friend (as part of another gift) for his 30th bday a Cuban cigar to try....He quite enjoyed how relaxing it was but didn't see all the rage about cigars. Fast forward a few months and we're sitting inside a pub with the doors extended to the beer garden and someone smoking a cigar and at first we both said: "Uhh someone's smoking a cigar, and it isn't a good one." (we joked) but the longer we sat there we both agreed after a few minutes,(actually that's a really nice smelling cigar, I want one!) lol. I guess my point is, don't knock it until you try it. These days I smell cigarette smoke and I can't stand far enough away, horrible smell... but there is definitely a relaxing, comforting feeling about sitting down with a cigar. Similar to the nicest bottle of wine you can think of. I had my first cigar in I think 2013 on a suggestion from a friend...Montecristo no. 4 I believe and upon taking the first few drags I was like: "Where have you been all my life?!"" lol. Now I have a humidor, 2 tuppadors and a small bag of cigars, but I only smoke a few a year. So I definitely agree with Edward Sahakian. "Cigarettes are an addiction, cigars are a pleasure." Buy a tin of Partagas Capitols for you and your friends at your next bbq and then tell me you don't want more cigar smokers. lol

QualeQualeson the davidoff shop has always sold Cubans, I thought the same thing. Thought it was weird Habanos s.a supplied the davidoff shops around the world with Cuban cigars

@@evan8l Yes that is true. Strange. The division between the Cuban state and Davidoff seemed quite dramatic to me, both from a business and ideological perspective. Who knows, maybe they couldn't afford to shut him out. Maybe there was corruption or something else. I'll see if I can find out some day.

+Sam Gearhart - Thank you for your comment. We are sorry you feel that way, we would humbly disagree with you our experience. But Do enjoy your cigars, in which ever way you wish!

That’s too bad Sam. I’ve always had great dealings with other cigar lovers.

Sam you are so right! Thanks for comment

It's unfortunate your experiences w/cigar smokers of a younger age have been less than enjoyable. I myself am a Boomer & I must admit others close to my age (56) are genuinely nice people. Admittedly I don't have much of an opportunity to hang out with Gen Xers but I would hope one's appreciation for a cigars could cut across age barriers & all could engage in interesting conversation & establish a rapport.

If a gentleman smokes cigars or not he is still a gentleman. I would recommend smoking cigars with gentlemen, you will find it very enjoyable.

Clearly he was well of before coming to the UK - owning breweries / soft drink factories in Iran - no doubt he had bank accounts set up here and more likely than not property in the UK

You can use credit cards internationally you know! And in the 80’s and 90’s such a thing as a check guarantee card was in existence.

@@ianmoncaster7860 if you say so

he has told this story exactly the same in other videos. Not bullshit. :)

@@63humanbeinghe doesn’t have to say so… it’s a fact 😂
