What was your first?

The first cigar I smoked many years ago when you could smoke in a public area was a Macanudo Portofino Tubo. I was staying at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Chicago for a few days with my (then) boss for a trade show. We ended a long day with a nice dinner and a stop the hotel bar that also sold cigars for an after dinner cocktail where he introduced me to my first cigar paired with some Grand Mariner. The rest as they say is history.

Do you remember the cigar? Also, have you tried The Grand Mariner cigars?
