Hi everyone! I am a new member of club stogie and a fairly new cigar smoker. My friend brad (bradleyt) told me all about the forums and encouraged me to join, talking about how much of a true brotherhood it is and how many great and knowledgable guys are on here! I am a New Yorker originally, and moved down to Pinehurst, NC two years ago. On monday I leave to intern with Mission to the World (the Missions outlet of the Presbyterian Church in America) in Sweden for about eight months! I have been going to a cigar group on tuesdays for a little while and been trying to branch out a bit as far as the cigars I try, but I must confess that my humidor is filled with every Rocky Patel there is, my favorite being the Old World Reserve Maduro, although I usually go with The Edge Maduro because sticks are SO expensive in Pinehurst (it's one of the world's premier golf towns, but even so cigars are exorbitantly priced)! I just bought a LFD Ligero and a Punch Grand Corojo at Brad's suggestion, and am looking forward to smoking those soon!
My collection is rather in shambles at this point however
. I gave a friend of mine my old humidor and bought a new one, but there was an unexpected one week gap inbetween those two occurrences and all of my cigars got really dried out. I have them in the new humidor and they are coming back to life slowly (they dont crackle anymore when you roll them between your fingers...which is a good sign ), but if you have any suggestions as to the best way to do this, please let me know, i'm all ears!
I am looking forward to getting to know some of you and joining the club! Thanks!
