Hi everyone!
After a few problems attempting to register over the past week or so (Thanks Deano for helping sort that out), I can finally say a hello to everyone, rather than just stalking the forums :D
I'm Jay, clocking in a relatively young 25, and I'm definitely a rookie when it comes to the cigar game. I have never smoked any other form of tobacco however, when I was 18 there was always something intriguing about cigars and I ended up smoking one whilst in Paris, which led to the beginning of my mild obsession. Since then I have always had an interest in the cigar based culture, but I never got around to taking the hobby seriously, just smoking them when and if I could.
Around a year ago, I left my job to pursue the main goal I had always had, of starting my own independent record label, which as of now is coming along quite nicely, and ready to start putting out our first releases in a couple of months time which I couldnt be more excited about. With this, and the bands I am now working with, led me to make the decision that I would need to move to LA for half of each working year, which is where I currently type this from. Since being in LA, my passion for cigars has been heavily reignited! I'm fortunate to have two great cigar lounges not too far from me, and have been there as much as possible of late, seeing as here, we are still aloud to smoke inside them! Im also very fortunate that I am heading to the Grand Havana Rooms in Beverly Hills next week, as a good friend of mine is a member there...my experience of which I will try and document here if possible, and if anyone cares to hear about it.
However, although my passion has been reignited, like I said, Im still VERY new to this game, but its at that time, where I am beginning to make the steps to taking this hobby far more seriously! :D
With the other half of the year, I live in London, to which I am heading back in a couple of weeks, and I look forward to trying out the cigar smoking venues I have been reading about on here through you guys.
I will try and offer as much input to the forums as possible, however...Im not quite sure just how much I can offer right now, and you will probably find me instigating more than adding anything of value!
So yes, I think thats about everything, nice to meet you all in advance, and I look forward to many a great conversations with you all!
Hope you are all having a grand week so far!
Jay
