How do you smoke a cigar without looking dorky?

My best friend is having his 18th birthday party and his dad bought him a box of expensive cigars. He's gonna pass them out at his party, but i've never smoked anything and don't want to look like a n00b. I know not to inhale, but will i cough like a 10 year old? And once you start smoking them do you get used to the smell?

Forget about how you will look. Make sure you know how to cut it, or have a proper adult cut it for you. Cigars aren't meant to be inhaled (even though some of us do), just take some in and blow the smoke out after you've had a quick taste.

If you feel like it's too strong, the cigar will go out on it's own if you leave it alone, then you can light it up again once you are ready.

If you and your friends all light up at the same time in the same room, and none of you are used to the smell, you will all end up coughing up due to the strong smell and have a bad experience. I suggest either smoking outdoors or lighting up one cigar between two or three people (sort of like a joint) just for the taste, but thats really not how a cigar should be smoked.

Wear leather gloves and every time you take a puff, say "I love it when a plan comes together".

you should always have a smoking jacket, a cool hat and a cane!! lol

It's hard to look dorky when you have a cigar. You could hold it like a cigarette, and look just fine. And definitely don't inhale. Just draw a little of smoke into your mouth, hold it there for a second, and exhale it. You shouldn't cough too badly if you don't take a deep inhalation.

Dude, if you don't like the smell don't smoke one.
Send it to me.

If you don't inhale you should not cough, unless you are allergic or something.
