    If that is the case - then you'll be sure to find cigars (both inexpensive & a bit more pricey) in your local Dunnes or Centra to suit your taste & budget. Enjoy! :)

    No idea. Your best bet would be to ask at the counter.

    king edwards are a petit corona size and cost around €16 for 5. a pack of h wintermans half coronas cost around €8 for 5 - but like the man said, there are cigars and there are cigars.

    if you are ever in the city center there is a shop called foxes across from trinity college. they do expensive and not so expensive cigars indivdual and boxed and have a decent website.
    cigars varey in strength from mild to strong so if you dont usually smoke they may be a bit sickning. they also vary in size and some of the larger may take a long tiime to somke.
    the best thing about a real brick and morter shop is you can ask for advice and try a few diffrent things.

    I'd sooner recommend Decent Cigar at the top of Grafton Street next door to Captain America's. They'll offer you free coffee while you browse and sell handrolled Cuban, Nicaraguan and Dominican cigars rather than the machine made stuff that will be sold behind the till in supermarkets. Prices can be reasonable enough, for the quality, with a Cuban petit-corona starting at 9 euro.

    I think Cuban smokes are worth it, because if ever you subject yourself to a King Edward or Hamlet you might never smoke cigars again! (but it's a matter of taste - I won't be too snobby about it).


    Plus, the staff there are genuinely friendly. When I was in Fox's I got the distinct impression that I didn't earn enough to be wasting their time.

    so if you dont usually smoke they may be a bit sickning.

    Just be careful the first time you smoke cigars not to inhale them - let the smoke cover your mouth and then exhale. Cigars are for taste, not for the nicotine hit! Also, have a decent meal beforehand if you're worried.
