Hello new cigar smoker

Hello all, my name is Kyle and I’m a new cigar smoker from Ohio. First let me start off by saying that I hope I posted this in the correct place. I ended up falling down the cigar rabbit hole mainly because I’m an accumulator of expensive hobbies such as shooting/reloading, film photography, vinyl records, 3D printing, and now whiskey, so cigars just followed the whiskey naturally.
When I made my first purchase a little bit over a month ago I had no idea what I was doing. I bought the Gurkha Churchill sampler from cigars international, a $25 Rockwell quad torch, a $20 guillotine cutter, and started researching on YouTube.
In the month since I’ve bought and seasoned my first humidor and smoked 6 of the Gurkhas along with two Alec Bradley Tempus Maduros, a Drew Estate Acid Blue Kuba Kuba, and a CAO Flathead V770. I enjoyed all of them with the exception of the Acid being just too sweet.
I think I’m really going to enjoy this hobby and I plan on hanging around the forum and learning what I can.

Welcome @KyleM1990. You will learn a lot from this crazy group. Many of them just got released from some sort of facility or another. But they are harmless as long as they take their meds.

Isn't it so very nice when someone joins the forum, does a right nice invitation, and isn't complaining about the sucky customer service or trying to sell us some dried out cigars?
