Hey all. I just want to say hi and that I've learned a lot from just lurking the past couple weeks. I'm fairly new to cigars and have really been getting into the cigar and whiskey/bourbon/scotch world. I look forward to learning more on this forum.

    First of all, good name. D(ougie) Fresh here

    So far I'd have to say Arturo Fuente Hemingway and CAO La Traviata are my go to's. La traviatas are a better price point. I also like Padron. Last night was one of my first herfs with a bunch of guys I work with. I got spoiled by an Opus X and some of the finest bourbon you can imagine. I'd love to get recommendations on good cigars at a good price.

    And for what it's worth, music is a large part of my experience. And while I begin to embrace the bourbon community, if you have any questions regarding craft beer, specifically IPAs, I'm happy to help

    Leccia
    CAO
    Fuente hemmingways.
    And on and on. LOL!

    Thanks for the recommendation. Guess I've done alright with my CAO and Fuente picks so far. The OpusX was one of the smoothest so far but unless I hit the lottery that won't be an everyday smoke for me.

    Now that's what I'm talking about! Figure that out and your collection would disappear rapidly! Very nice Ben!

    That is about 2.5 hours from where I am at. I live about 10 miles south of Cincinnati.

    Yea Bob is always stirring the pot :)

    Sorry for the late welcome D, and don't forget to add Rum to the list. And Cinco Vegas Golds are a good choice, in the light wrapper if your just starting out.
