Wow, thanks for the unexpected and warm replies. Very nice place you have here, and very eye-appealing too - Kudos.
I am new to cigars (about 2 weeks) but already "up on the game" or so I think
I should say I have picked up quite a bit ) . I really went all out and in a short amount of time I figured out a few things.
The first thing I did was buy this nifty humidor
It's suposed to hold 100 but it looks bigger than that to me. I added a digital hygro/temp and a diamond crown humidifier.
I like my smokes mild, long and thin, (I imagine this may change with time).
What I have tried so far (a few of each) in order of preference is:
Davidoff 3000
Macanudo Portofino
Ashton 898 (except for the too delicate wrapper - won't get them again)
Also had but wasn't crazy about CAO's Gold Corona.
In the humidor waiting for me are:
Fonseca Natural 799
AVO Classic No.5 Tubos
Romeo Y Julieta 1875 Exhibicion # 3
Montecristo Yellow # 1
Don Diego Playboy
Don Diego Lonsdale
Griffen 300
On my list to try is:
Dunhill (Samanas)
Hoyo (natural café royal, natural churchill, excaliber nat. banquet)
Partagas (natural humitube, natural #1, series s perfecto)
Zino (natural veritas)
Bolivar (tubos #7)
Helix (cylinder)
Cusano (vintage corona)
Arturo Fuente
Anyway, Any suggestions, comments or otherwise would be greatly appreciated. I tend to jump into things without looking first. I seam to be at it again so if your feeling helpful, don't be shy.
Since I like posting pictures, here is one for Savage112
Take care and good smoking,
Mike
