Hey

[poult]

I'm a long time guest reader but felt it time to sign and introduce myself and get involved.

I began reading for advice as I am very new to Cigars, having been introduced by a friend at a Rum and Cigar evening about a year ago. From then I've treated my self to a few as a light, social smoker and been given a few by the same friend building a real like.

I was in Edinburgh this weekend just gone and had some excellent advice from a great retailer on Rose Street picking up Hoyo Epicure Especial (wanted a No. 2 but they had sold out) and a Montecristo No. 1 both of which I really enjoyed, although the second was heavier it still had a subtle cream which I seem to enjoy and I did ask to pushed to a slighter heavier taste by the shop keeper.

I'm looking now to set up a Humidor over the next couple of months, probably around the 20 mark and get a couple maturing to see a difference. I like the thought of a collection too.

Anyway, thanks for the advice and hopefully thanks for the future chat and laughs.

Cheers

Welcome bud all the v best.
Also, I'd say to go bigger with the humidor.
Buy once and all that

Welcome bud! Glad your enjoying nice sticks. Good plan on sticking to 20 or so, I think that's the direction im headed in too.

This. I have two 20 ct humidors under my desk right now that haven't been touched other than as a small footrest. If you're going to bother with a 20ct humidor, just get tupperdore for 1/1 000 000th of the cost

Sounds like you have a nice grasp on what to smoke first. Let us know how you progress, and very nice to see you posting again!

Welcome to the machine!

Hey! Welcome aboard, chico!

Plenty of fine lads about that will be happy to advise you on your puro path. But if it's laughs and chuckles you're on about, look no further than chico Buttermeball's posts - you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll wanna' die....but you won't be able to look away.



Now, enjoy the show!

You could get a Tupperdor but it won't look lovely on display. Just look for a bargain on the bay like I did, I got a 100cnt Savineli for ?20 and looks gorgeous.

Though I did keep 2 tupperdors until recently...... unfortunately as great as they are I found them ugly so I kept them hidden.

Welcome to the forum.
If your only just starting out with cigars me personaly i'd go for a 25 count humidor rather than a bigger one , for the following reasons.

You may not enjoy the cigar smoking hobby, in which case you haven't spent much on a humidor plus they look nice compared to a tupperdore.
If on the other hand after a few months of trying different cigars your starting to enjoy the hobby, then either sell the small humidor to buy a bigger one
or just buy a bigger one, the above is just my opinion what i would do.

Haha! I dare you to name one person who, after the mandatory lurking time, joined this fine forum and ended up NOT enjoying the - how you say - "cigar smoking hobby?"

And if the young lad opts for the smaller unit, as you suggest, only to learn in a few weeks he needs a bigger box, who's the sucker that's gonna' buy it?. You? Me? I think not. Now perhaps some chump from that other forum, but nobody around these parts is gonna' want it because they know better!

Buuuuut I could be wrong, I guess...
