    jhunter127:
    Hey all! I have been lurking here for about a few weeks. I have to say that this community rocks , every one is really helpful to each other. I just started smoking cigars a few months ago, starting out with the Acid line then moving into non infused cigars. I have tried the Oliva Connecticut Reserve (the draw was i little sparce on the few I have had), and the Nub Connecticut 358 ( loved this one) Also the Olvia G Seems I like the 5 x 50 shape alot. I am looking for w humidor right now and few other cigars to go along with it. I know to go bigger that what I an thinking but the wallet is tight right now (I know a bad time to pick up this hobby, what can I say). Should I just hold off till I can get a 50-100 stick humidor? Or pick up a 20 stick to hold a few cigars? Right now I go to the B&M pick up a stick and smoke it. Aslo looking for a few more suggestions for "new" type smoker to define my palette. I'm pretty snobby with my whisky and coffee. So I looking for smokes that : 1. wont break the bank 2. spoil my palette for the price point I am in. 3. help me define "new flavors" 4. that smoke well "just bought" ( i have not gotten to where i have aged anything nor have the patience to age something right now )(is that bad?) Of course I am going to pick up the 5 vegas gold (Id be a total idiot not to with everyone suggestions) but from there where to go? I know that this had been asked like 500 times but also figured that I d say Hey there! also ..... Alos been inspired to make my own humi , but that is a bit later on in life.... keep up the good work guys..
    Welcome and you wont go wrong with those 5 vegas golds Ilove them, the humi suggestions a good one , My wife bought me a 30-50 count and within 2 months i have it JAMMED full and a Tupperdoor with some over flow and have beeen looking for another humi already as I have been getting in the games and Loving it! These guys in here are great and the best talk and suggestions anywhere.... get your advice from guys who Love and DO smoke allot of Cigars! Peace and Welcome again

    From one noob to another, try out gurkah cuban legacy. This is more of a medium smoke, it is will constructed and is priced well too. I would also suggest getting at least a 50 cap humi, they never fit the stick count they are rated at. You may also want to look around the forum for some tips on humidification before you make this purchase. In reading your message, sound like we got started about the same way. I have been into this for a few years now and enjoy learning the hobby almost as much as smoking the cigars. I've checked out a few other forums, seems like these guys will treat noobs better than you would get anywhere else.

    Welcome brother..... I picked up the lucky 7 humidor a few month back and its beautiful! 200 count with glass front and 7 drawers. PM me if you want more info. I would hit the samplers as much as you can, great way to pick up a varitey.

    Welcome man, as you said all the guys on this forum are really cool and know their stuff.. for a smoke that wont break the bank and has good flavor you cant go wrong with a 5 vegas gold.. what I did when I first started out was get the ccom house sampler.. it will give you a good idea of what you do and dont like in a cigar. As you will hear, when buying a humi, get one that is waaaay bigger than what you think you need.. I got and filled up a 20 ct, 50 ct, and 150 ct in a matter of weeks! The daily deals are great here and they give you a chance to experiment with different sticks! Once again welcome to the forums!

    Thanks to all that has helped me, I went for a killer deal for the cash I had, I am now selling all my "other stuff" to make more money to get a me bigger humi and more "stuff" to smoke. Now, after you had your fill (for that day) of Vegas 5 Golds what is the next step up? Cameroon? Just asking :0
