Hi all. I just wanted to introduce myself. I am new to the board and the cigar world. I have been reading and reading and reading. I am an addict. This board is great!!!!!! The amount of knowledge here is outstanding.
I need some advise and help from you all. I have invested in one of Thompson’s hummie cigar deals and got taught a lesson real fast I got 150 dog rockets and a hummie that will not stabilize. From reading some posts I learned of the flashlight test and tried it. Well my dark room looked like a disco when I hit the lights. The whole reason I spent the money on the hummie was I have some CAO Brazils that a friend gave me, and I love them, but I wanted a place to store them. Now I have my CAO’s in a tubberdor and a pile of crap sticks. I was looking fro some suggestions on brands I should try. I live in northwest NJ and do not have a good shop so I will be doing a lot of internet ordering. I like Spice, full bodied smokes, oh…I did not tell you I like the occasional pipe, in a robusto size….I think… I guess…I have not had a lot of sticks to tell you what I like or don’t like…. I just need HELP!!!! I want to dive into the sport of cigars but I don’t know where to start and I am on a budget…1 wife 2 kids and a cat and 1 paycheck. Please any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I look forward to learning from all of you and I hope one day I can post a cigar review that makes you proud.
