" Hey checking things out here so figured I'd say hello to the masses. My name is Josh and I live out in the sticks of Kentucky (only 30 minutes from Louisville). I'm 33, married and I work for General Electric making refrigerators. Factory life sucks from time to time hence the reason I kick bsck and relax with a good cigar and a cold beer. First cigar I ever picked up was a Casa Magna Connecticut for my Honeymoon back in 2011 and it was love at first puff. Shortly after I purchased a 20 count humidor... then a 40 count... then a 75 count... then a 100 count... you see the trend here right? Sadly its still far from full lol I love visiting my local lounge, local B&Ms and other cigar events. But at the beginning of my cigar journey I had a tough time finding a cigar forum to share reviews and whatnot. So I started a group on Facebook for Kentucky locals called Kentucky Cigar Enthusiasts. Ive met a bunch of good friends, made some great acquaintances and had some great cigars throughout my journey. There are many cigars I still yet to sample due to income and availability in my area but im always venturing out and trying new smokes. Love browsing my Cigar.com magazine and window shopping picking out my next smoke id like to try. Like I said due to availability in my area and income I don't get try them as fast as id like. I like Liga Undercrown, Aging Room, Camacho, Nomad, Pancea, 601, Ep Carrilo, 90 Miles, Ava Maria, Penar Del Rio, Gurkha, Leccia, Perdomo and many more. I have yet to try any Diamond Crowns, OpusX, Liga Privada, Padron, Ashton and My Father... mainly because they are pricey. I'm just now venturing into boutique cigars so there are a bunch I've yet to get to. I hope to meet some new BOTL and try some new smokes along the way."

Hello,
My name is John, I live and work in Parma Ohio. I'm a Gastrologist at Parma Community Hospital. Most people run for cover or cover their back side when I say that.
Anyway nice to have joined the group, my partner got me hooked on cigars and I want to know everything I can about them.

Some very experienced folks here who can give you great advice on everything from good smokes to taking care of your collection. As with all of us here expect your collection to grow exponentially if you hang around long enough. Welcome again good to have you.

John, welcome. I was in your neck of the woods about a year and a half ago for a job interview. It was actually in Parma. Didn't get to stop at the rock museum, but did meet an artist who made one of the giant guitars. Hoped to swing by Canton, too, but didn't get to do that. Drove by the Christmas Story house. Walked part of that great park/trail system, too. Nicer area than people give it credit for. Too bad the job offer was awful.
Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.
I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot. I will smoke anything, though.

Hello to all,
Didn't see this forum prior to posting to some other boards so I'm new but have made a couple connects. To those I've spoken to already thank you for all your support, tips and advice.
My name is Julian and as you can see from my signature am a coach by hobby. I currently coach my 3 year old's tball team and coach older teams as well. I've been coaching for 5+ years and enjoy every minute of it. I coach Baseball, Football, Basketball, Soccer, Fastpitch Softball and individually train athletes when requested to. During normal work days/hours I'm a recruiter/headhunter. My goal/passion is to trade in suit and tie for jogging suit and coach's whistle.
Recently discovered a hobby in cigars that I've been looking for for quite some time. I'm excited to see what I can discover and learn. I have to say that after a game whether we win or lose I enjoy sitting in the backyard and running through what needs to be done differently during the game.
I look forward to being a part of this board and the BOTL.
