Hey just joined and recently just started smoking cigars.. Bought myself a plain 75 count humidor from Thompson Cigars. A friend recommended i buy beads and tube from Heartfelt..and also a digital humidor... finally got everything in and seasoned my humidor for about 4 days. Been spending all my time on cigarbid.com spending a lot...xikar v cut, some 90 rated boutique (come to find out not really worth it)... but anyways trying to get more into cigars and would like to fill this empty humidor... any recommendations? (where to buy, what to buy, etc)

Thanks

    Tapewormz is a good friend of mine and we had a smoke last night. Gave him a ISOM Monte while I lit up a Davidoff. Great relaxing time with some great weather here!

    I would start out with CCOM labels and get the variety pack to try all the different wrappers to get a feel of what kind of wrappers you like.
    Don't buy boxes right off the bat, taste around and find out which cigar you really like and then get a box and then age them. :)

    LMAO Rick! Yea, I have a close group of friends, not many. But just like cigars, I like quality, not quantity.

    Yeah, I'm finding that to be more for me also. I've been weeding out the cigars I don't frequent much. For better quality rather inexpensive or expensive. Maybe Tapewormz might want to try some, lol....

    Took the words right out of my mouth. Be warned though, your wallet can decrease in value quickly. Have to have safe control.
