wow where do you get opus x for so cheap?

[ashmaster]

What a nice list and for a beginner smoker you have some stuff that's got some giddy-up, cool.

With that in mind, you might want to consider the Cubao, Illusione, or maybe the Camacho Triple "M".

Havana Connections - We Are Virginia's Humidor

eh prices are not accurate

I'll be honest when I say this.. (and I mean it with no disprespect.. would just hate to see you spend a lot of money and not get "your moneys worth")

Since you are a self proclaimed beginning smoker.. there is a good chance everything in the list you provided is more complex than your palate may appreciate.. especially the opus (which unless havana got their shipment in, I believe is out of stock).

And $11 for a RP Decade is about $3 to much.

Padilla Series '68 Robusto ?

I agree with Stephen on this one. Step back and slow down. If you are really new to cigars yet some cheaper stuff first. Hell you may smoke have of those, not like them at all, plus they may make you sick.

What he said. Your list has sticks on it that are for me "special occasion" smokes and not everyday type smokes.

That said, I would probably try to pick up some Padron x000, Torano, Rocky Patel, Perdomo, etc for go to sticks.

While you made some excellent choices there, as stated above, these may be a little more than you can appreciate.

I did the same thing as you when I first started smoking, and while I enjoyed the smokes I chose, it wasn't until recently that I discovered that I get the same satisfaction from much more cost-efficient smokes.

My suggestion is to get a multi-brand sampler.

Thats what I eventually did, and still do from time to time. It gives you the oppertunity to try a whole range of smokes, and determine what you like, or dislike, based off of your tastes and not what is recommended by reviews and more exprienced, pallate sensitive smokers.

Also keeping a cigar dossier is a good way to remember what you smoked, and how you liked/disliked it. I love my dossier!!
