Don't know why it took me so long to discover how amazing and life changing a cigar could be. It took one magical summer night and one Oliva V torpedo to change my perception on smoking cigars. Two weeks later my savings account has taken a few hits in order to satisfy my new found hobby and now I find myself up late at night plotting my next purchases.
I wanted to ask some forumn members for some good suggestions for a newbie based on what I've tried and liked. Sad to say that so far it's only been a handful but I thoroughly enjoyed the oliva v for it's complexity and "chewiness". I also had a great Sunday morning coffee and stogie session which may change my Sunday rituals for life with a padron 1964, it really complimented my coffee with a creamy sort of mild aftertaste. Feeding off that coffee inspiration I tried a tabak especial red eye and enjoyed it at first but had to but it down as it was a little too sweet for me on the second half. Next I had a montecristo 75th anniversary and wasn't all that impressed, felt a little ho hum about the taste.
I trust everyone's judgement on here and welcome any and all suggestions. Some that are on my wish list are Mow ruination, Padilla 68, 601 blue, And 5 Vegas classic to name a few.
Here's a picture of my current growing stash awaiting a 100 count humidor, Let me know what you guys think! -Greg

Oh, and you might as well buy a 300 count humidor or make a coolidor. Trust me (I have 5 humidors) you will run out of room quickly and always wish you bought the bigger one.
here is a list of places you can put the ACID (or any infused cigar) instead of in the same humidor as non-infused high end cigars:
1) a different humidor
2) a tupperware
3) a Zip-loc baggie
4) the trash
5) smoke it now so its out of there
6) ANYWHERE not in that humidor.
Infused cigars will make every other cigar in your humidor taste different. it WILL taint the humidor. there is actually a chance that your current humidor will only ever be able to be used for infused cigars in the future.
it may be too late.
Great advice from Jsnake. I had to make a coolidor after my first 3 months. My three little humis just couldn't hold another stick. Welcome to the forums!
