New Smoker Here!!
HELLO ALL!! I have just begun my jorney into the realm of smoking fine cigars and I have to say it has been a very pleasureable experience. I have had a few occasions where I was in the presence of opportunity, but always seemed to not click with the experience. My first experience that consumed me was at work at a mortgage company - discussing business outside with my employer. He pulled from a bag two fine cigars which were given to him as a gift for a closing he had done, and I was intrigued by the smoking of a long-cut heavy-barrel robusto. At the time, I was given a year previous for christmas a box of Cortisia Churchill's with a bottle of fine scotch. I drank the scotch, but never consumed the cigars, so they were sitting in a 25 pack box with only 2 used for sampling. Only after the experience at my job, did I begin to aquire a taste for the fine box of cigars sitting on my shelf. I have since purchased a humidor and a new pack of cigars from the Thompson Cigar Company, and I would love to continue my search for the perfect cigar for me. Since this is a new experience I would appreciate any information anyone can give on affordable, quality cigars and cigar expo's in the New York Metro area. Thank you, and good smoking to you all Ron McCall |

Welcome aboard!
In NYC you can check out JR cigar (they have several shops in Manhattan and are the biggest cigar retailer/distributor in the US). There's also Nat Sherrman (they mostly sell their name brand, but have quite a few lines with a range of tastes and characteristics, City Desk and Gotham Series are among my faves). There's House of Oxford Distributors somewhere in Midtown Manhattan . . . they are very competitively priced and used to sell retail, you might want to check them out. A little more upscale you have De La Concha in midtown and the Davidoff store (not cheap). Good luck & happy hunting. MoTheMan BTW, there are also numerous smaller shops with decent humidors scattered throughout the city.

P.S. Not too far from you (a little over an hour's ride by train) is Philly (the city, not Filly, one of the CS herfs [LOL]). There you'll find Holt's cigar Co. If you get a chance, go check it out, their store brand is Ashton and they carry an awesome selection of the AF lines, not to mention great service and great staff.
