Hey all, My name is Ron I live in cherokee Ia, I've been smoking cigars for about a year now, I've had quite a few cheaper house brands through thompson but I'm starting to smoke more premiums. Right now anything made by Fonseca is in my top 10 list for favorite smoke, along with Montecristos, A. Fuentas, Romeo y Julieta and probably too many more to mension. I really never know what to write down in these things but if anyone has any questions for me feel free to ask. I have learned a lot in the last year and but I know I still have a lot more to learn and thats part of the reason I'm here, so thanks for listening to me run on and I'll be talking to you soon

Welcome from Kansas, you've come to the right place to learn....lots of experienced BOTL's here that are willing to share their knowledge.

Do you enjoy any of the cheap Thompson brands? That is the first place online that I bought cigars....I kinda like the Empressario maduros as a yard-gar.

welcome from MS. go hit up the Newbie Sampler Thread in the Exchange Forum. It's quite possibly one of the best things, dare I say, ever created.

I enjoy a few thompson brands, I had an Empressario last night, more than anything I just have a few thompsons from when I ordered my humidor, I am kinda going a different way than thompsons these days

Same here, I haven't purchased anything from Thompsons since I got my humi either, though their prices on the house brands are mighty tempting for yard-gars when you have a limited smoking budget.

Yes, you're right.
