Gotta catch em all; so I've recently started being interested in cigars.

Had a few over the years, mostly in Vegas, mostly to be cool. Couple years back I had cigars at my wedding, which resulted in a friend of mine being pushed over the edge and diving in head first. Now that has rubbed off on me and here we are.

Smoked a couple with him a couple weeks ago, and now starting to experiment with samplers. I was the guy last week at a summer party with cigars, came with 10 and left with 2, so that was cool how the cigars united several of us for a few hours. Definitely going to keep a travel humidor loaded for similar gatherings.

Looking forward to trying an Undercrown Shade tonight or tomorrow, then trying an Acid and KFC to get that perspective. Still learning and trying to tell the differences between cigars.

My other expensive hobbies include motorcycles, skiing, shooting, cycling, travel, Bitcoin, coffee, knives, watches, videogames, and of course, Scotch whisky.

So many more expensive hobbies to embrace. May I suggest Dark Rum, good bourbon, Rye, fishing and boat ownership.

Good luck on finding the perfect cigar, I'm still looking. ,
Fishing I've managed to miss; my FIL is crazy about it so I have abundant opportunities, but its just never grabbed me. Boat is probably in my future, but not near future.

Golf is the one I'm really staying away from.

Welcome from WNY. I share your motorcycle, shooting and watch hobbies as well. My wife is less than impressed. Anyway, as everyone will say here, this is a very slippery slope. You'll have a wineador in no time. And remember, keep the infused cigars away from the others. The don't play nice together.
