Welcome Joe! Which friend referred ya?
As far as suggestions, that all depends on how new you are and what kind of suggestions you're looking for, otherwise it's a shot in the dark. Give us an idea of what you've tried and liked, and why, and we can give you some serious recommendations! If you have little or no experience, then give us an idea of what kind of palate you have when it comes to other things... food, whisky, beer, etc.
EDIT: Oh yeah, I'm from just south of you in Puyallup!

I am actually from the south of you, University Place! No one knows where that is, although the Open helped with that. I like IPA's, Bourbon (Maker's, Knob Creek), Jameson. Love all foods, favorites are a good ribeye, Lamb, sharp cheeses, salmon, clams, halibut. Probably not a ton of help as I feel like everyone loves these things.

Well, it could help. Sounds like you have a palate that likes edgier, more distinct flavors (IPA, sharp cheese).
I'd maybe recommend looking into some corojo-wrapped stuff, like Warped's Flor de Valle and Futuro, Caldwell's Long Live the King, and Crowned Head's Four Kicks. For some citrus edge you might love, try the Espinosa Laranga, and Crowned Heads La Imperiosa. For more earthy stuff, try Roma Craft Intemperance BA XXI, Tatuaje Reservas (J21 and 7th are widely available), Liga Privada T52/No9.
