Hello everyone, Andrell here checking in from Redondo Beach, Ca, but originally from NC. I've been messing around with cigars for a few years now, but had no idea what I was doing! I've gotten serious over the last year and have enjoyed it much more. Besides smoking when I'm golfing, I now love to sit out back by the fire pit and enjoy a good smoke and some of my bourbon. This has turned into an evening ritual.
I've been buying cigars from local shops and Total Wine, but I just ordered my first two boxes last week and purchased my humidor. I'm currently enjoying the Don Pepin Garcia Original Toro as my go to, but I'm really looking forward to reading up on all the posts and trying new stuff. Please don't hesitate to suggest or point me in the right direction. Also, I just learned to retrohale and it's taken my smoking experience to another level!!
Rules of the forum:
1. AJ blends don't suck
2. Smoke what Nick @Usaf06 smokes
3. Drink what @Usaf06 drinks.
4. Tony @0patience is running low and needs some smokes.
4. Don't call me Francis. I'll kill ya.

Hello all. My name is Mike Walker. Newbie here. I live in the Fort Campbell, Clarksville TN area. Started smoking cigars with my buddies while we where deployed back in the day (05-06, 08-09, 11-12). Just recently got back into it, and already have a decent collection. Samplers, and buy 5 deals have been awesome lately. I have taken a fondness to the Diesel, and Man O War brands.
Thanks all for all the knowledge you have put in here. I have been scouring the forums and have learned so much.
I look forward to plentiful conversation, and possible friends.

Hello! Nice to meet you, also that’s a great stick!
Welcome. DPG are a great smoke.
Why would you leave the madness of NC for the insanity of CA. Was it Bev Purdue?

Frank, your points 1 & 2 are contradictory.
Nah. Point number one is a subset of the whole, and point number 2 is a different subset. Plus, Nick smokes some AJ sticks...
I appreciate the welcome guys! @deadman i left NC a long time ago. I came out to California for my job at the time and never left, lol.
The PRC! Awesome! I mean, too bad ...
Shutup, Francis
