Hey everyone. My name is Cody. I've been looking around these forums for a while, reading reviews and posts, and decided it was about time for me to join up.

I'm a student at the University of Oregon and I have been smoking cigars for around two years. Recently I decided to make an investment in a relatively small (personal stash) sized humidor and filled it up about halfway. I have been a huge Padron fan ever since my first 1964. I really just cannot explain how that cigar changed the whole experience for me. It widened my perspective of what a cigar could be.

My most recent smokes were a La Aroma de Cuba Mi Amor and a Diamond Crown Maximus. I thought the Mi Amor was a pretty solid cigar and the Maximus was amazing near the middle half, but otherwise lacking near the beginning and end.

I guess that's pretty much a summary and if anyone has any suggestions based on my past smokes, I'm always looking for a new cigar to try out.

Thanks everyone.
