It's Been a While

[Island Epicurean]

Hey All:

It's been a while since I last posted on this site. (Almost a year.) Just seemed like things got more about member bashing and internal politics than cigars... That being said, I am back and ready to be educated by the fine members of this board again.

I have been viewing the board somewhat frequently lately, and this site has been a regular source of cigar information. Keep up the good posting everyone.

Welcome back...

We just shoot each other in the back now. No more bashing!

Welcome back. I agree about all of the politics. There's a good bunch of guys on here.
We still get to beat on the occasional newbie screw-up or troll.

It's become a relatively drama-free zone, which suits me fine. I first came here over 2 years ago to talk about my new passion, cigars, and that's what we're back to and it's feeling very good.

i like being new and beaten on, but i think it's all in good fun. always want to hear more about cigars, though. anyone going to the big smoke in Vegas?

Good to see you back. The politics have died down quite a bit.

Any newer release cigars that you have tried in the last year that you would care to comment on?

For me, most of the Pepins and Padillas have been great. The Tatuaje H6 and P Series cigars have been a fanstastic surprise for the lower cost. Camacho has also put out a couple of great new releases. Oh and the Illusione series is another great new cigar.

Dressing my wound as I type...

Welcome back

Why - I believe you're sorely mistaken. The core of this board is made up of a close knit group of individuals who would not think of causing grief (i.e trolling, etc.).

But it is good to see you back!

Thanks, It's Good to Be Back
