Whats up fellow cigars smokers,

am new to the forums if theres anything i should know would like some help.

One thing that i would really like to know is how can i enjoy a full cigar am more into the mild and medium ones as far as the maduros go only tried 3 and 2 of i did not like is there something i should look for in the maduros?

I got into cigars about 4 months ago after a paintball game and i said "this could be my new hobby" and it sure did? my first cigar was a El Artista Bambino.

I play alot of senario paintball and after every game a nice cigar is always good and time to relax. our teams wbsite is www.teamfoxtrot.us (little propaganda ;-D) I do alot of buying/selling/trading in a paintball forum called pbnation. If possible i would like to do the same here to try new cigars. I dont know how to post a link so at the bottom you can copy and paste my feedback and i use the same screen name on all the forums am in.

    Welcome to the boards! Clear a few hours out of your day and just start reading old posts on here. You'll find a wealth of knowledge that can't be found anywhere else. I highly recommend reading kuzi's posts on blending and developing your palate. It's the best, most useful, down-to-earth easy read "how-to" on just about everything you wanna know just starting out. You won't find another group on the 'net that's friendlier than the Brothers here! We are one big happy family!

    Welcome to the forum, you will learn a lot from these guys. Fire up a stick and start reading past posts, then;

    Get a larger humi
    Call cigar.com and talk to a rep
    Buy up some samplers and start trying them out

    Give ccom a call and they will set you up with some samplers to try, you may find that you like some mild smokes as well. Like women, don't have expectations, enjoy each for what it is. I haven't really smoked a cigar I didn't like in some way. Just have fun with it.
