Hello everyone! Greetings from (mostly) sunny Northern California! I've been a cigar smoker since early 2010, off and on. I only got serious about finding great smokes and learning more about this here hobby in the last year or so. It has always felt to me as though the more I learn, the more I realize just how little I know. I haven't had the benefit of a really awesome B&M in convenient driving distance, so that I could talk to and learn from veteran cigar enthusiasts. I mean, don't get me wrong, there are cigar shops in my area. However, its the kind of thing where the clerk tries asks me what I like and then looks at me like I'm crazy when I reply. So, since I've been lurking these forums for a while now, I thought I'd actually finally step out of hiding and contribute a bit. See you around the forums!
