Hello everyone,

I've been lurking here for some time now and decided to introduce myself and hopefully become part of the great community you have.

I'm 29 years old and have been smoking cigars for about 6-7 years now. I used to smoke quite a lot of Non-Cuban cigars, mainly CAO, Torano, Padron, Sancho Panza and Oliva, but that was back when the exchange rate was much better. These days I stick with Habano's.

Due to finances I've had almost a year hiatus with the cigar smoking, and I've just recently started getting back into it, and discovering just how much I love cigars, and everything that goes with the hobby.

Cigars I enjoy include:

Partagas SD 4
Partagas SP 2
Partagas short
RASS
Hoyo Epi 2 (Love robusto cigars)
Bolivar BBF
Montecristo 4


I like to buy boxes of 'go to' cigars that are affordable, such as party short, and then treat myself to 3 or 5 packs or boxes of 10 of the higher end cigars as and when I can.

Anyway that's a little bit about me. I look forward to getting involved with the forum. Just enjoyed a Monte no.4 which, was perfect right down till it burned my fingers. It was my first cigar in a while, and it reminded just why I love cigars.

Thanks for having me.

Wow, thank you all for the warm welcome. Looking forward to getting involved.

Sbthang, yeah I'm a big fan of Padron 2000. I know on the American boards everyone raves about the maduro, but I always loved the natural and have smoked quite a few of those. It's just that after paying for shipping, the total cost makes me think I could spend the same money on habanos.
