Hi everyone just thought I would take a minute to introduce myself. My name is Phil and I am from California. I have been smoking cigars seriously for a little under a year now and am still definitely refining my pallette. I just finished a M.A. at U.C. Davis and am currently on the job hunt so I am on the computer quite a bit right now. I am a pretty avid poker player and am always up for a game. As far as my tastes in cigars goes, I tend towards strong maduros but I enjoy milder stuff as well. My current favorites would have to be anything in the PAM lineup, anejos, opus, RASS and WOAM. I definitely recognize some names from other boards I participate onbut I am also looking forward to getting to know the members of this board I haven't met yet and joining in with the community.
