Welcome, amigo. Where in Europe did you travel? Are you going to school in CA?

poland england france and germany was a hell of a time and im still in highschool in irvine ca

Welcome young'n...hang around, feel free to ask questions, and enjoy yourself. Looks like you've got a good start with your collection; there's a lot of good stuff to try--just keep an open mind and you'll find a lot of different cigars to enjoy.

thanks right now im just buying whats reasonably priced and what i can afford and also some reputable brands and some iv never heard of to see what i like. im not 21 thought but i hope it doesnt matter when ordering online. i can see how this can become a very expensive hobby very fast

welcome from MS.

so any suggestions for a newbie

may i just say that this is an addiction i just baught a 50ct humi and its almost filled i have a 15 ct small humi that needs to be filled i have a 5ct and im looking at getting another 20 ct 5 vegas and filling it darn this obsession!

yeah, 65 is a good level... but make sures its really at 65 rh, get a digihydro and calibrate it with a salt test... also, beads would help. as for cigars:

Gurkha Class Regent Nepalese Warrior if you like those Gurkha expiditions
Try the Rockey Patel Vintages... my favorite is the 1999 Conn., you'll probably like it if you enjoy the 5 vegas Gold, its also a mild stick. Cohiba's are good but over priced... you'll find they aren't as good as their ISOM rival that shares the same name. Can't go wrong with an A. Fuente, I like the heingway line... i suggest the Don Kiki line as well from CubanCrafters.com check it out for sure, tasty and cheap.
