It's finally come to this, you've made it after years of hard work and your finally being recognized. Your promotion is in hand and the party is for you. You stroll into the study of your bosses home and are handed the finest cuban cigar on the market. You pause because your not quite sure what to do because it's your first time smoking a cigar.

You've seen movies with men just bitting the end off so you go for it. "Whoa! Son, we have a cutter for that your boss says." A little embarrassed, you take the cigar cutter and cut the tip off trying not to look even more foolish. It works, the boss gives you that wry smile and a sense of ease comes over you. You lossen up and begin an evening of shoulder rubbing and let the praises come in.

Is this you? Don't be unprepared when it's your turn to celebrate with your boss and he hands you a top quality cigar. You need to know a few things about cigars and the accessories that come with. So let's begin.

Cigar Accessories and what you need to know.

There is a lot more to cigars and cigar smoking than meets the eye. There are many cigar accessories that you need to be aware of in the event you take up cigar smoking as many have. If you are the least bit serious about smoking cigars then your going to need a cigar humidor. The humidor keeps your cigars fresh and prevents the loss of moisture. They come in many different sizes and styles. The prices can range anywhere from $75 to well over a thousand dollars.

The next accessory is the cigar cutter. You defintely don't want to bite the tip off of a fine cuban or cohiba cigar and look like an amatuer. I mean, what would your boss think? Cutters give you a clean cut and prevent the unsitely frayed end that bitting will produce.

Moving on, you need a cigar lighter. No, I wouldn't use a 99 cent bic lighter and look like an unsophisticated twit. You need a lighter that says you are a veteran of the game and shows it. Many cigar shops have some of the finest cigar lighters around and can be picked up for around 50 dollars.

Finally, you need to consider portable storage. Why? Well, you can't carry a humidor around with you. For one, they can be heavy, two, you'll need a place to plug it in and three you'll look just plain foolish carrying it. Cigar cases can remedy this. They are small cases, usually leather that hold roughly 8 cigars. They fit neatly into your coat pocket for easy and portable storage.

Congratulations, your now ready to go out and mingle with your boss and peers. With this information you can now sound and look intelligent when smoking and discussing cigars.
