Hiya folks! I've lurked, read and absorbed the great advice on this board for a few days now, and found the advice really helpful. In the past, I've enjoyed a cigar once in a blue moon, and never gave any thought or consideration to their condition or treatment. As I've found myself enjoying a...

Hey All - My name is Patrick :) I've been lurking around these forums for quite a bit and I figured I'd register.. I'm a 20-something college student who enjoys cigars in my free time. I work as an EMT on the weekends in a semi-firefighter capacity so we like to end the long days with a great...

Just wondering who has been there and how it compares to the downtown store. O also is there too. To park a truck and 30ft trialer

Well, I just finished cleaning up the mess from the IED Sandz left in the KL he sent me, when I get a call today from my wife that her mother is in the hospital, after a package was delivered at the house for me exploded, luckily she was released after being treated for minor cuts and bruises...

Hey everybody my name is Hector and im from the bay area (san francisco but currently living in sacramento), im 24 years old and started smoking real cigars a few months ago. My smoking history goes like this: I started smoking ciggs in high school and using (still do) swisher sweets to add...

Hey gents Im heading down to northern NJ next week and I was hoping you NJ guys could point me in the right direction of a few B&M's to visit. Im only going to be there for a day so Im looking just for the top ones. True tobacconists type shops with a great selection of boutique brands. I want...

Hi all, another Canadian on board. After stealing vast amounts of intellectual property off this forum, thought I better get on here to thank you guys. I have smoked a fair share of good cigars over the years, but started getting into the hobby when I ordered a DPG sampler about 4 months ago...

Hello everyone. I have been a casual cigar smoker for about a decade. It was usually for special occasions, new job, vacations in the Bahamas, but nothing ever serious. For the longest time I didn't even know I needed a humidor, but then, I didn't keep them around long enough to make a...

Hi All. I've lurked here for a few weeks and decided to sign up. I don't generally have a lot of time for forums any more, but this seemed like a friendly and helpful group. I've been a BOTL for about 10-15 years now. Most evenings you can find me in the backyard by the firepit for a stick or...

Hi there... my name is Steve. I've been smoking cigars for a couple months. Longer really, but I don't count the first six months as I was clueless and don't count that experience anymore. Since spending some time actually learning about cigars I've made better purchases, stored them better, and...

Since Virginia made it illegal to smoke in restaurants I'm now looking for a good place to smoke, especially in Fairfax County or Manassas, VA. Thanks for any suggestions. Kent

I've been lurking for quite awhile (since the Club Stogie days) and thought I should make the official introduction. The information I have garnered from this forum has helped me go from a complete noub to a well educated noub. Thanks to all.:wave:

Excuse me for not understanding, but I see a lot of posts by Canadians, referring to problems buying cigars and other cigar matters because of their Canadian residency. I would like to understand what these restrictions or problems are. I remember going back to the 70,s, I...

Hi all, :wave: I'm from Roseville, California. I'm lucky enough live about 10mins away from the wonderful Tobacco Republic in Loomis, CA (largest walk-in humidor in NorCal apparently). I've only been smoking for a few months, so I'm still finding out what works for me and what doesn't. So far...

Hey All, Thought I'd drop by and say hi. I've been perusing the site for a few days and gobbling up all of the great info. Just got into smoking about 2 weeks ago. I've tried just a couple cigars, and a few different pipe tobaccos. Thanks to all the info here, I was able to pickup a decent...

Hi all. Being in a not-too-friendly area for smokers (unless it's medical marijuana) :smile:, it's nice to have found a community of like minded cigar smokers. When not smoking I'm riding my bicycle. Have yet to ride with a stogie though. May have to try that!

Bluti Fishbinder here. Love a good 60 ring medum-full to full flavored cigar. I suppose I'll have to post a picture to go with my screen name (as soon as I figure out how)

hello to all fellow smokers on this site. my name is jay and i have only been smoking for a very short time. these few months that i have started has been really great especially the friends that i have gained from going to local smokeshops and also the knowledge that i have gained from just...
