Greetings, BOTL!

My name is Doug, and I actually registered on this site back in January after returning from a trip to Nicaragua with some of the members here. The ones I know off offhand are: Kurtdesign1, Cyrann, and joshbenesh. I had a great time with those folks and wanted to find a way to keep in touch after our amazing trip to Esteli.

Unfortunately, I got really busy with other life things and fell away from cigar boards quite a bit after returning to the US!

I'm an air traffic control supervisor with the FAA (23 years and counting); I've worked in Alaska, West Virginia and now Spokane, WA. My wife and I are moving to Las Vegas in a few months, that should be our new home for a few years at least!

I've been smoking cigars for about three years and tend to enjoy Nicaraguan cigars more than others. My taste profile tends mild/medium, but I've really enjoyed some awesome full-flavored and -bodied smokes in my time as well.

Some of my "go to" sticks include:

  • Oliva G
  • Oliva Connecticut Reserve
  • Oliva O Maduro
  • Oliva V
  • Padron 3000 Maduro
  • Torano 50th Copper

Yes, there's certainly an "Oliva" trend there! I'm known on other boards as a shameless Oliva Ho!

Living in the great state of Eastern Washington, there aren't really any places I can go to meet up and enjoy a smoke with fellow BOTL. I'm looking forward to Vegas for that as much as anything else.

Anyway, that's the quick intro for me. I'm looking forward to lots of great times here.

Welcome, The Oliva G and O were my kick off smokes to my cigar obsession, now the Oliva V is a staple in my humidor.
