    Hey guys, been lurking for a month or so after finding the sprint sale and decided I would start posting. I've smoked cigars randomly for a five years, but never consistent until my wife decided to buy me a humidor two years ago. It's been downhill since then.

    Last name actually. I did do a good bit of bass fishing with my dad growing up. Never competitive, but lots of really good memories.

    I didn't get the memo either, brother. Discrimination or fear, which do you think?

    I am new on here as well did the lurking and decided to post myself I've been smoking for a couple years now and seeing on here all the smokes gives me ideas to sample all new things. Being in South Florida got allot of cigar shops so I'm able to try different cigars daily I've upgraded my humidor already but it can never stay full. I have been smoking allot of the San Lotano Ovals the Alec Bradley Presnado and the Liga Privada undercrown if you guys have any other suggestions that would be great

    Welcome, your holiness! My suggestion would be to try...EVERYTHING!! By the way, I hope your health/life insurance is paid up and you like to play rough. We're prone to throwing things...

    Since it seems you're a full-bodied fan, I'd recommend anything from the Diesel line, the Man O' War Ruination and Armada and the Cu-Avano Punisher.

    Welcome Bother!
  • Hey everyone. This is a pretty cool thing you got going. I'm Stephen and Ive been smoking cigars for about six years now. I started out with my room mate in college when his dad gave us a box of cigars and it grew from an activity to a hobby. I thought I knew a decent amount about cigars until I got on here. Looking forward to learning a lot more.

    And learn you shall, young Padawan. Procure the largest cooler you can find, purchase a few pounds of beads and begin construction on a bomb shelter. You'll figure all of this out soon enough. Welcome to the forum and enjoy your stay with us.

    A good mixed taste brand would be Drew Estates, if you want to expand your taste buds they're nice and consistent in a good way. Also from one of the sisters welcome to the threads!
