I used to enjoy a cigar now and then until the prices exploded through the roof. For the cost of one good stick you can buy a tin of premium pipe tobacco that will give you twenty smokes or more. Welcome aboard from central N.C. Besides, pipes are more flexible -- you can mix blends endlessly, once you get a feel for what goes with what, and maybe get a few condimental tobaccos like Latakia, Perique, Turkish, black Cavendish or cigar leaf (!), etc.
that's a big part of the reason I don't smoke a lot of cigars. Though I find they're great for certain situations such as when you didn't pack a pipe.

Welcome from the Central Coast of California!

You can put your location in your Profile—(please!—because people will forget!) That will save questions in the future as to where you live when you later mention local stores, weather, tobacco prices, availability, regulations, location of photos, wildfires, air quality, etc., etc..
Under your avatar, (top right, left most of three symbols) you choose "Account Details", which brings up "My Account". "My Location" is halfway down. Whatever you're comfortable with- town, city, county, state. Just country if you must.

Worth the learning experience. My friends still love cigars; I share your sentiments. Enjoyed them. Smoked then socially. I actually look forward to a pipe.

Welcome from the NJ Shore.
