From the US, so Cubans are out for the moment. At this stage, I don't think I'd appreciate them enough to warrant the effort/cost to secure them...

At the moment, I was looking at the H. Upmann Reserve No.1 or Vintage Collection, but I seriously have very little idea what I'm doing, just excited to try something.

Go to a B&M tobacco shop. Talk to the people there, they will steer you to a few to start with. Smoke them, return to discuss likes / dislikes. Repeat.

IME, B&M employees are terrible sources of information and reccomendations.

I'd rather get a recommendation from you guys, or just spend some time digging online. I've gone to two shops locally, with disappointing results (service, price, and advice) both times.
