    Welcome from Houston, TX!

    Typical time line of Cigar Acquisition Disorder:

    1. Newbie tries cigars and likes 'em
    2. Newbie finds cigarsmokers.com
    3. Newbie tries newbie sampler
    4. Not so Newbie finds a bunch of favorites and buys boxes
    5. Not so Newbie realizes need for cooler & beads
    6. BOTL goes in on trades and passes and finds more favorites
    7. BOTL shares love of cigars with cigarsmokers.com
    8. Repeat steps 6 & 7 indefinitely

    Hi

    Another welcome from Columbia, SC

    I'm a newbie also. Been on here for several months now and it's a great place to be.

    I've done the Newbie Sampler trade and can recommend it.

    Welcome on the long slope to buying, trading, smoking, etc...

    Thanks for the welcome Drew...

    Just tried a few more smokes today...

    CAO Italiana (Not as good as the Brazilia, but not bad for one-off smoke)
    CAO Sopranos Edition (Very great, except its a bit pricy)
    CAO CX2 (Very creamy - Gotta get some more)

    Sadly, they were out of AVO, but they hopefully get another shipment...

    Also, if I try the newbie sampler will the dealer give me a list of the cigars beforehand?

    Welcome from VA (soon to be W. VA). It seems you are off to a good start with the smokes you listed.
