    Default Newbie from WNC

    Hey, everyone,

    I'm pretty new to cigar smoking--a little over a year. I like to try different brands, especially the fuller bodied and fuller flavored cigars. I live in Western North Carolina, I am female, and I am nearly old enough to retire.

    Default More about me and you

    A couple of folks mentioned the newbie sampler . . . where can see what it contains? I like samplers for the variety and opportunity to try new cigars. I've noticed that different companies favor different brands and put together very different samplers.

    I like a lot of cigars--Macanudo maduro, RP's MAXX, Fuente's Gran Reserva. I buy online mostly. No good cigar places near me. I'll be in Indianpolis in a couple of weeks. Anyone with recommendations for stores or bars/lounges there?

    I must admit to practically being a chain smoker, though. I know, I know, but it's what I am and what I like. Prices are killing me even at less than a dollar a stick.

    Thanks for the warm welcome~

    Look under "exchange" and there's a stickie for the newb sampler, or do a search.

    You don't know what it will contain, until it arrives. That said, I was extremely pleased with mine a while back.

    The sampler will be a surprise, but trust me I just did one and you will not be disappointed. It is a great way to get a feel for what is available. The established members of this site will not rip you off. Spend some time browsing and searching through all the threads.

    The contents of your newb sampler will be tailored to your desires. When you get hooked up with your sponsor, you'll talk via PM about what you like in the sticks you have tried, what you would like to try, etc.......From there the sponsor will put some sticks together that they think you would enjoy smoking, and that they enjoy smoking themselves. They'll come straight out of their personal humi's and coolers in well-cared for and in ready to smoke condition, guaranteed.

    You usually get more than your $$'s worth since none of the sponsors are in this to make any money. We don't profit off of each other here, period. I've never heard even a hint of a dissatisfied newbie.

    Welcome!
    I did the sampler trade a few months ago, its fantastic. All the guys doing it are extremely knowledgeable and generous. You will get some great smokes you would have never thought to try. Go for it!
