    Default Hello Fellow Cigar Smokers

    I will introduce myself as what I truly am: an ameteur, a rookie, noobie if you will. Growing up I was surrounded by the welcoming cloud of sweet smelling cigar smoke thanks to my grandfather. He favoured Ritmeesters, if I remember correctly, which I am finding rather hard to get my hands on.
    Young as I may be, I have a wonderful pallette which is always willing to try any cigar at least once, and if anyone has some suggestions as to which a beginner like myself should try, please let me know.
    I've already acquired a taste for Havatampa Jewels of any kind. The birch tip really adds to the whole experience. Mango cigarellos, Captain Blacks (hey, they're better than Old Port ><) and Guantanameras (I LOVE those).

    Anyway...hi, I'll be looking forward to learn from the best.

    Welcome to CS by way of the Big Blue State Kentucky!


    BTW, just don't mention anything about Acid Cigars and you will do just fine! I found out the hard way

    You're going to destroy that pallatte of yours unless you quit smoking HavaTampa's, Mango cigarellos, Captain Blacks and Guantanameras...

    Welcome! Stick around, ask questions, and do lots of reading. We'll have you back on the right track in no time...

    BTW - as a start - Quinteros Breva with age on 'em are much better than Guantanameras

    Welcome to the board fellow Albertan!! Ggiese has some good advice worth following

    and if you decide in advance not to smoke, I can only feel sorry for you."-Sigmund Freud

    Haha, I'm from Edmonton. And yes! Hick-ville!
    BTW, I quite disagree about the Havatampas, I just love them. The mango cigarellos I can probably ween myself off of however.
    I tried a Philpino cigar today and found it to be quite vile...just thought I'd share. And thanks for the link, I'll check out what's good to try ^_^.

    So what do you think of the smoking laws in Edmonton...Kinda sucks eh. Especially in the winter. Next time I'm in Edmonton, I'll have to introduce you to some 'real' cigars...
