Welcome to BOTL!!! I personally like Blue Havana and Burning Leaf, have yet to go to Tesa, Up Down and Iwan Ries. Looking forward to exploring more Chicago spots when I move back there!

Since more folks have posted here, again let me say thanks for such a warm welcome. Glad to know there are so many other brothers from Chicago - looking forward to meeting up this Winter and not smoking on the back patio (my wife is looking forward to that, too)

Wow, thanks for such a warm welcome!

For you folks in the area, where do you usually buy your cigars from? A local B&M or online? Always appreciative of recommendations.

Welcome bro! I'm from the Chicago area also. I typically hang out at Casa De Montecristo in Countryside IL and is where I do most of my B&M purchases at. I rarely order things on the internet.

Hey Rob!

:welcome: from Minnesota :waving:

I usually get to Chicago about once a month so maybe we'll have a chance to get together for a smoke sometime soon!

Will do!

Last time I was there (3 weeks ago) I stayed in Naperville and got together with several of the guys for some smoky treats :ccool:

Welcome Rob!

From one Chicago Rob to another.... Welcome! Lots of fantastic brothers on this site, and definitely a lot of great brothers in the Chicagoland area.

I am in Plainfield. Burning Leaf is a good source for selection. Binny's, Bull and Bear in Naperville, and Casa De Montecristo are places with lounges to hang out at.

Again, Welcome to BOTL!

Presto (Rob)

Hey Rob - thanks for the message! I've been buying in person at Binny's because, being so new to cigars, I don't want to buy a box or pack of anything yet, preferring to try a lot of different brands first. I checked out Casa de Montecristo and it looks great. A bit far to drive, though. I drive by Bull and Bear all the time, so I'll have to stop in one of these days - especially since I'll likely not be on the back patio again until Spring.

Cheers

welcome from another big Hemingway fan from Wisconsin (Madison). My personal favorite is the Best Seller. If you have some Between the Lines, which I haven't tried yet, PM me maybe we can work out a trade.
