Hello!

[parnaby]

Hey guys, BOTL here from Middlesbrough but currently residing in Malaysia for the past year and a bit. Been smoking cigars for a few years now but seriously for the past 12-18 months.
Lots of choice here but only really Cubans. Prices are ok; Upmann, RyJ, hoyo, Fuentes mostly around 5-7 pound, Cohiba, Trinidad around 12-15 quid and Opus X and Behike 30-50 quid.

My favourite at the moment is the Trinidad Coloniales. I'm looking to try and branch out this year though, hearing very good things about the Drew Estates blends.

Looking forward to learning and sharing with you all.

Hello!

Hi, just seen this. Welcome. Looks like you're off to a good start. Had a CAO OSA SOL this morning which was excellent. Enjoyed that very much. Drew estate have great offerings as you said, I heard a lot of goo of the Liga Privada smokes and have some of the Feral Flying Pugs to try soon.

Hi Parnaby, welcome to the obsession. I lived in Singapore as a child and I well remember the heat. Is the humidity a problem for you?

Thanks for the welcome guys.

Nice and warm here. Monsoon season is just finishing so will be sunny 32dregs most days and 80% humidity. It's a bit of a killer at times, sweat as soon as you go outside. Good thing is though that my cigars keep just fine in their box.

Back to the UK in April.
