    I am 29 (30 next month...yikes!) and from Minnesota. I am married with three kids and I work in sales (non-retail). I have been dipping my toes into the cigar hobby for a year or so. My favorite cigar thus far is La Aroma de Cuba Mi Amor Belicoso. I am always on the lookout to try the Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchills!
    Welcome brother. I myself really enjoy the Mi Amor

    NEWBIES to the CCOM forum, break the ice here with a small introduction or something to make you feel a bit comfortable posting on the forum. We now have over 900 members, but less that 10% of them post with any kind of regularity.

    So don't be shy just cuz you're new, most of us (if not all ) will welcome you with open arms and be happy to have you as part of the community so long as you are decent and respectful.

    Disclaimer: I by no means speak for the community at large, but I've got a hunch that quite a few people would agree with me.

  • Well I guess I would call him a friend caz hey he did introduce me to the cigar world and he also just gave me my first humidor and 3 cigars to start off. Plus we are going to go to cigarfest together. So i think it would only be polite to call him a friend... LOL plus since I have to work with him on a regular basis don't really want to call him to many things ..... But all in all he is a pretty good friend. We even went to his club after work yesterday morning and I smoked my first premium cigar with him over a nice cold beer and have to say it was quite good. I definately liked it!

    Hello fellow cigar lovers! I figured I have been creeping long enough and should finally start posting. I have really enjoyed the great information on the forums and the playful banter! I have been smoking cigars regularly for only about a year. I am a high school math teacher and find a cigar very relaxing after eight hours of working with teenagers. I look forward to the many interactions with you all. Tony
