You are blessed with lots of choice, JJ Fox, Dunhills, Sautter (Mayfair & Knightsbridge) to start with. So much choice and all very friendly and welcoming.

first tip avoid from Taylor's of Bond Street, Brighton. Don't know if anyone else has used them but I was shocked by their prices & Mike Choi confirmed they were similar to the Bulgari in London. E.g. ?21.50 Monte No3. ?17 H.Upmann Coronas Major & ?28 for a Monte No2. I am sure I would never have got into Havanas if I they were a such high prices when I started.
My first cigar bought & smoked in a cigar shop was:
