[Dean]

Hello everyone,

I'm new to the cigar scene, I gave up the faggs in june, but since then i have missed smoking, i recently went to jamaica and new york and discovered cigars and loved them, i bought a small selection from Barclay Rex just opposite Grand central station and am enjoying them very much but only have a few left now, i would like to know more about cigars but dont know where to start, i also would like to find a good cigar mechant, in the first instance a retail outlet similar to my new york experience with the walk in humidor so i can smell and touch before buying, and when i have more experience i would dabble on the net as i dont know what im after just yet. I live in Ashford, Kent if anyone knows of a good place please let me know, same goes for a humidor, i would rather buy where i can touch and hold rather than a picture. www.simplycigars.co.uk looks good i guess but i think they are only good if you know what you are looking for.

Hi Dean,
Welcome to the forum, you can try shervingtons cigar shop off charing cross road. you can choose what cigars you want as they have display humidor.

Monte.

Welcome Dean. Might have to change your nick to stop the confusion between me and you!

Not sure about Kent. But you're welcome to try Monte who just replied - he'll get you anything you want for a lot less than what you'll pay in the UK.

Hello Dean

I'm in Deal. I suggest we both drive 15/20 minutes to hinterland Folkestone and have a two-man herf outside a good pub some time in the future. There are plenty of them!

Unlike cigar merchants. There are none of those in East Kent. :mad:
