    Hi, I'm Eric 40 from West Bloomfield MI. Quit smoking cigarettes 15 days ago and just miss the hand and smoke thing. The first cigar I smoked was 20 years ago a true Monticristo in Canada. From what I read now it is illegal to even smoke a Cuban cigar. I won't be doing any of this i promise.....i remember how amazing it tasted. just ordered a sampler with free humidor and look forward to some new flavors and a new hobby.

    Welcome Sasquatch, I think one of your kin is roaming round these parts.. Squatches have a reputation of being lurkers!!

    Welcome brother Sasquatch. Don't feel bad about lurking. You said you learned from it. That's one thing we're all here for. Heck. I've seen long time members who have been on here (actually logged in) recently and still they never have post anything,……ever,….. they just lurk. Lurking is such a bad word too. Maybe we should call it purposeful observation. LOL So, how long have you been purposefully observing the forum?

    I like to call it surveillance from a legal distance of 200 yards. Too long Probably a couple of years since I found cigars on these newfangled interwebs. TY for all the reviews I have used to try new cigars over the same timeframe. This place doesn't have the pretentious snob clique or the requisite troll member. It feels more like a group of buddies hanging out on the back deck chatting while watching the smoker cook.

    Yep, It's friendlier here. I landed on another forum site before I found this one. I asked a noob question about wrappers cracking and they skipped the question and started talking crap among themselves about the line of cigars I was smoking. Bye bye snarky fart sniffers. I'll try and find a friendlier bunch. And I did :)

    Hey Guys Brian 28 from Whitewater WI. Recently started smoking cigars on the golf course and now I am hooked. I have been learning a lot on this forum in a short amount of time I have been on. Still trying as many different cigars as I can to find out what i like and don't like. Picked up the MoW Armada from the Daily deal yesterday. I think cigars go pretty well with my other hobbies Golfing, ice fishing and brewing beer. Now time for a beer and cigar on a lazy Sunday afternoon. image

    Hi all I am new to the forums.. I joined to educate myself on some of the nuances in the cigar world as my husband and I both enjoy fine cigars. Our favorite activity is to sit on the patio and have a nice glass of wine and a cigar..I hope to here some helpful hints.. My favorite cigars are macanudo, montecristo, Oliva g series and M III series. I like a milder cigar with a good draw.. Would love to here some suggestions. ????

    Again, welcome to the forums! I am a big fan of aj Fernandez stuff and looking at mild to medium cigars with great favors I would consider the maw virtue, or the San Latano oval.
