Hi everyone,
I'm Frank, and I'm a cigar noobie. I live near Baltimore, and I'm fortunate enough to have a couple shops relatively nearby. A combo hookah bar/ cigar bar just opened up 5 minutes from my house, and they have a really nice walk in humidor. There's also a very high class B&M about 20 minutes away that I plan on going to tomorrow. I'm trying to find a cigar that I like enough to purchase an entire box of. Here's a lil list of the stogies I've tried thus far:
1876
Acid
Baccarat
CAO Flavors
Excalibur
Montecristo Platinum
Padron
Romeo y Julieta
Romeo y Julieta Habana Reserve
So far I think my favorite has been the RyJ Habana Reserve. I think I've also determined that I prefer larger ring gauges, and something around 5-6 inches. Tomorrow I hope to pick up another Habana Reserve (to see if this might be a box candidate
), a RyJ Vintage (also as possible box material, since their boxes double as humidors, and even include a humidifier), a NUB (to see what all this fuss is about, and since I like larger ring gauges so much), and maybe some Montecristo's. Any other suggestions on smokes to check out?
Also, I'm going to be in Italy this entire next semester (I'll be a sophomore in college), so I hope to try out some of the forbidden fruit while I'm over there
Sorry for the long post,
Frank
