Hi everyone, just got signed up. My buddy luckysaturn13 told me about the site... so I tried to sign up, and spent 3 days waiting to be approved - at botl.net - until I figured out today that I had gone to the wrong site.
Oh well, at least I'm here now.

Looks like a great site, thanks for having me here!

A big warm welcome to the person solely responsible for my cigar addiction!

Welcome!
Tell us a bit more when you have a moment....What you smoke, how long in the hobby, etc.
Hope you enjoy your stay here :)
Thanks! I started smoking cigars about 2 and a half years ago, because of a 12 pack sampler deal (through Famous Smoke) that I saw on Groupon. I thought "that's the weirdest Groupon I've ever seen" and by the end of the day, decided to give it a shot. My reasoning was that I smoked too many cigarettes whenever I'd have a drink, and thought I'd see if I could cut back on cigarettes by puffing on a cigar from time to time. Fast forward to today, and it's been over a year since my last cigarette, but I do love my cigars.

I tend to smoke a wide range of sticks - I like the classic brands such as Punch, Partagas, and Montecristo, and I'm a big fan of anything Alec Bradley or Drew Estate. I went through a phase where anything by AJ Fernandez or Don Pepin Garcia were my go-to sticks, but I've backed off a bit since giving up cigarettes, and while I still enjoy the stronger sticks, I've once again come to appreciate a wider range of cigars.

If anyone ask, My better half totally blames you for my cigar expenditures! ;) But she don't mind it too much. I haven't been in a bar in over 2 years!
I don't really go to bars anymore either. I tell people it's because they don't allow smoking anymore...

Thanks guys, I appreciate the warm welcome. Been looking around the forum and it looks like I'm in good company here. Very decent and respectable folks from what I've seen so far. And of course, the shared love of cigars is nice too. :)
