So my name is Bryan, I'm 22 and from central New York. I've never really participated in a forum but the guys who got me into smoking rave about forums so I figured I would join one and BOTL seemed really legit so I wanted to give it a shot.

As far as smoking cigars goes, I'm a relatively new smoker. My first hand rolled cigars were some Macanudos i often bought when I went t the local casino, I figured being 18 and smoking cigars had to look cool right? Well it was, and still is haha... and moreover a real good time. Anyways I've smoked a few sticks now and again but have recently started to get back into smoking now that some friends picked it up and really love (about time, flying solo is never optimal). I'm actually bating my time to light up this 5 year aged Cohiba Red Dot Mini that is an incredible quick smoke.

Outside of that I'm a Prep Cook at an incredibly successful Pizza Restaurant, I play a lot of hockey, I'm a 12 handicap golfer, I watch a lot of sports, I'm a marketing major advertising minor in college, I have an awesome and supportive girlfriend and that's about it. I may be young and I know in local cigar shops some look at me as some ignorant youth but we're the backbone of the cigar world and we all, young and old, serve as ambassadors to this hobby and I intend to spread my message and passion to all willing to listen. Anyways, I'm sure I'll be posting all over the place so I'll hear from all of you at some point.
