Well Guys...

I just gave my mentors son his first few cigars.
He's like my younger brother and I'm really proud to say he's interested in joining the brotherhood.

I'll see how these play out and then slowly feed him more.

    Starting him off easy.
    Gave him two Gran Habano #1 connecticut and a Gurkha empire series 2.

    Wanted something that wasn't going to overwhelm him.
    Once he smokes those I'll toss him a Centurian, a La Gloria Cubana, and a LADC ee

  • That is very exciting. I'm glad to hear of a BOTL in the making!

    I have recently brought my older brother on board. As a matter of fact, he went to Wise Ash with me and dbeckom this past Saturday and enjoyed some fine smokes with us. I am trying to talk him into joining the forum, but he is affraid it will suck all his free time if he does... I don't personally see why that's a bad thing... lol.

    I just got done setting him up a 50 count humi and unloaded about 40 hand rolleds on him. He is most definitely hooked now.

    good job, Stephen. It's always fun to get another potential BOTL.

    I think we ought to start going door to door to spread the word. Until then, I've brought my co-worker into the fold for the occasional smoke, trying to bolster his knowledge and help him better understand what he likes and why. It's been a blast.

    No, no, that approach only works well with sex, Stephen's on the right track, and good work, by the way.

    Way to go gentleman! I have to say it's really nice to see people going out of their way to help someone out and show them some of the finer things in life... just another example of fine behavior!
