    Welcome all new members!  
  • Good morning, 

    New to the forum, but not new to cigars.
    Like most guys my age, I got into cigars with the craze in the early 90s. I got out of it for a number of years,  but found now that I'm older and my palette refined with age, I enjoy cigars again more than ever.

    I have a little blog, but I'm not sure if posting the url violates the rules. I write reviews in the form of a story to make it interesting beyond  just the dry analytics you find in most reviews.

     You sound waaaayy too sophisticated for us. But hey, maybe you could do us ne'er-do-wells some good. Welcome to the forum. Post your url. I'm no bookworm, but I'll take a look. And I don't think it will break any rules unless you are sponsored by a competitor.

    I'm Thomas age 36, really just smoking cigars regularly this year.   Two of my favorites is 2017 Las Calaveras and  Davidoff Late hour.  Any suggestions for cheapers sticks with these flavors?

    Welcome @GYTYRE , You might try the Jericho Hill from Crowned Heads, or the HC Maduro.  At least a little less expensive.  Regarding the lighter question on your homepage, the Scorch Torch triple flame is a good buy.  Moderately priced, my last one lasted about 6 or 7 years, still works but the hinged parts got loose so I bought another one just like it.

    Hey all, 
    My name’s Jimmy and I am going to have way to much fun with this. I’ve been smoking cigars about 8 years with ever changing regularity. Im from Indiana and am a huge Pacer’s fan. My friend told me about this and I’ve honestly never been on a forum. Super interested in these trading, passing, pay it forward, and bomb ideas. That sound so awesome. Anyways just introducing myself and hoping to get to know some people who’ve been here a while! Thanks all! Smoke em if you got em!
