Hi,

Names David, been smoking cigars for about 10 years. Retired police officer from Tampa Florida, which had a cigar shop on every corner. Got to know the Fuentes, Bobby Newman, and many other cigar makers and shop owners during my years as an officer. Visited the over a dozen remaining cigar factories still standing in Tampa as well as the cold storage for all the bails of leaves stored there! Saw first hand rollers that remain in tampa, and of course Ybor City is rich with Cigar Heritage. Also got the pleasure to know Cigar Dave from the Cigar Dave Show.

I have several humidors, but my best one is my tower cabinet that has about 500 cigars in it. I have some I just found last night doing an inventory that are from when I first started! Attached are pictures of me and my son rearranging the tower and the finished result.

Currently living in Chattanooga and still visit and smoke at Burns here often!

David

Welcome from Chuckey, about 3 hours north of you, just below the tri-cities area. Glad you're here. I stopped in Burn's quite a bit when I was traveling back and forth from Atlanta, great place, a lot of htf to be had there. Maybe there's enough of us on here to do a Knoxville herf sometime soon.
