Just want to say Hi to everyone and introduce myself.
I live in NYC and I am turning 30 in a month![]()
I first strated playing around with cigars about 8 years ago. Mostly flavored at that point. I remember Oliveros had some nice ones. So for a while it was an on and off kind of a thing.
Then 2 years ago I visited a friend of mine who as it turned out was an avid cigar smoker judging by his humidor. Over the weekend we smoked a Montecristo and RYJ and he did his best to explain the natural flavors that these cigars had. To be honest I was quite amazed and from that point my hobby was slowly turning into a real passion.
After I went to CIgarMania last September I knew cigars will be a part of my life. I read a lot about the subject and sampled quite a lot of different brands. Unfortunatelly no Cuban's yet due to the obvious, and I am positive hated by many, position of US o this topic.
I am really happy that I found a place that cigar lovers can meet as a community and I really look forward to being a part of this forum.
By the way if anyone is aware of any cigar clubs or events that happen in NYC I will be greatfull for your input. ( I hope these events are more of the social rather than status $$$$$$$$ kind, to be honest I don't own a Ferrari and can't spend $100 a shot on the best Scotch as Cigar Aficianado has us believe everyone should do)
