Enough Lurking, Hello From TX

Where to begin? I gave up cigarettes a year ago and after about 8-9 months picked up pipe smoking for a little while. I enjoyed the taste of some good tobaccos but as often as not ended up with a slightly scorched tongue.

I've enjoyed the occasional cigar over the years but never had any way to keep them so would pick one up now and then for smoking right away - Macanudos most of the time.

Lately I've been trying some better smokes and enjoying them way too much, cruising the web for information and liked this site a lot. I mentioned it to my son who shares an enthusiasm for pipes and cigars and found out that he's a member here too - Cheeto.

Moving along quickly on the slippery slope I picked up a 100 ct humidor and filled it quickly with a bunch of Patel's along with some Gurkhas I picked up cheap and haven't been too thrilled with so far along with some Nestor Reserves that are OK for a cheaper smoke. Those guys at CI know what they're doing with the extra deals they present at checkout time!

Now I'm in the process of setting up a Vinodur that I'll fill more selectively once my 65RH beads and shelving material arrive. Smokes I'm enjoying the most recently include Patel Vintage, Old World Reserve, Decade, Padron Maduros in various sizes, a couple Padron Anniversary 64 Maduros that were better than sex, and an Oliva O. The Torano Exodus and some more Olivas are on my to-try list and I'd appreciate any other suggestions. I was disappointed with the CAO MX2 and somewhat so the Partagas Black.

Greetings to all and I'm glad to be here.
