Thread: New Member, and New Smoker, Checking In

    Default New Member, and New Smoker, Checking In

    Hi all! Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Mark. For years I've loved the smell of a good cigar (actually, ever since I realized the White Owls, Phillies, and El Producto's my father and his friends smoked shouldn't be considered cigars, but burning, rolled-up Army blankets), but never took my courage in both hands to try one until last weekend. I went to JR Cigars in Paramus, NJ (near home) and the salesman helped me pick out three different cigars to try, a Macanudo, a Nat Sherman, and a Romeo y Julieta. I've so far had the first two. The Macanudo didn't thrill me, it really didn't have much taste. I liked the Nat Sherman better, but it had a sort-of spicy taste I didn't care for, a feel like peppermint in my mouth. In the next day or two I'll probably sample the last one.

    For a while I'll probably be lurking and learning more than posting.

    Welcome from NW PA.
    I would suggest the newbie sampler if you are interested in trying an assortment of different cigars... you will definately get ALOT more bang for your buck.


    Live each day like it's your last, one day you'll get it right.

    Now go back and get yourself a Rocky Patel "Edge" maduro. Let me know how that works out for you...

    Welcome.
