My dailies are Opus X , Ashton VSG, and Davidoff milleniums. I'll splurge on the weekends and have a 40th or 80th padron in the mix, along with a Behike or two.

*****ALARM GOES OFF*****

I like padron, tat, JDN, DPG, etc......no flavoreds or Macadoodles.

Not too often you hear of anyone from John Day. I used to live in Bend - moved to northwest Louisiana (where I was raised) in December. I did love it there, but it was hard to find work. That, and my wife was frozen for 7 months out of the year. But if we were in different financial circumstances, at any time in our life, I'd definitely reconsider moving back. It was so beautiful there.

Thanks everyone. I am looking at getting some sticks for a buck (bundles) and I was wondering what you thought of them? Have you had any opportunities to try? And if you have are there certain brands to stay away from? I thought buck a stick bundles would be a nice way to make a collection.

Excellent move! Good to see you're jumping right in.

It's way too easy to outgrow small humis when you're a member of a cigar board.

Welcome.

Welcome from Pennsylvania. There is a lot of good information on these boards Search & read & have fun.

Don't be afraid to stock your humi with some cheapies. You may need to give them to "friends" who don't regularly smoke cigars but always want you to supply them when they show up. I use a box of La Fincas for this purpose. Works like a charm.

Welcome to the board; besides LaFincas, what else do you like to smoke? Feel free to start your own intro thread.
