Hello to everyone in BOTL!
New to BOTL, but not new to cigars - since high school, (best friends dad always let us have one) - so around 14+ years
Generally, I am very much into most everything fermented (cigars, beer, wine, whiskey, mead, etc) - I make my own mead (still learning)
Avid coffee drinker (usually intelligentsia)

Cheers Everyone!

Hello from Lake in the Hills, and welcome to the group. There a lot of us in the Chicago area with quite a few of us being in the North-X burbs (Geneva, Lake in the Hills, Carpentersville, Naperville, West Dundee, Wauconda to name a few). Which burb are you in?

We try to get to together as a large group once every couple months, sometimes less and sometimes more, so hopefully you can join us.

Welcome from Buffalo, brother!! (y) I've always wanted to try mead (I hear the Polish variety is very good). How does it pair with a cigar?
In truth, I have not (yet) paired mead with a cigar. There are very many styles being made and some may be quite nice, while others would be too stark a contrast to pair together. 9 times out of 10, I usually have coffee or water, but sometimes pair whiskey or port

Welcome to BOTL from Minnesota @sweemzander :D

I have had the privilege of getting together with the Chicago crew several times over the past couple of years and look forward to meeting you in person at some point in the future.
