  • My Hello

    Hello nice people of UKCF

    I wanted to say Hi and Introduce myself!
    My names Nick and I'm a cigar fiend.....

    I was introduced to cigars when a work colleague told me I shouldn't be smoking rollie's at fancy events and here is a humidor with a sampler of cigars, was very nice but not entirely appreciated! As a newbie, it tasted like old mans fingers to me...

    One of the gifted sticks was a montecristo #4, which completely changed me and a Nicaraguan Panatella that I cant remember the name of. I bought a few more samplers from various places and built up my collection. I purchased a new humidor with 4 shelves last Christmas and then went to hajenius (link removed) in Amsterdam which absolutely blew my mind!! The price, the choice the whole thing was incredible...

    Anyways, I now have an improving collection, getting better with tasting notes and buying a second humidor to stash all the loot I will be picking up in Cuba, when I visit in 3 weeks.

    I'm certainly no expert but have been toying with cigars for over a year, thoroughly enjoying it and looking forward to speaking with everyone here! Oh, and i gave up the rollies!!

    Nick

                              Thanks everyone for the warm welcome! I am from Plymouth in the sunny southwest, although not today!

                              Images as promised...

                              IMG_1295.jpg

                              IMG_1296.jpg

                              I got a box of these in Schipol last year ?78 for 25 and really really enjoyed them. Last month I purchased another...

                              IMG_1297.jpg

                              These are interesting, Dutch rolled and quite dry but very nice. I consider them similar to La Invicta - but nicer!!

                              IMG_1298.jpg

                              Got stuck in as they shouldn't be in a humidor apparently!

                              IMG_1299.jpg

                              Churchill and up...

                              IMG_1300.jpg

                              Had 4 of these, all smoked terribly... this one was snipped and blocked so leaving out to air. The un-cut one looks ok actually!

                              IMG_1301.jpg

                              Non Cubans and I really enjoyed the COA brand cigars, very different in taste. Italian once are particularly interesting, quite intense but also comparable to a good maduro.

                              IMG_1302.jpg

                              On the right we have the partagas aristocrates that I have an un-opened box of. My fianc? got me a quintero as a present so got 5 in Amsterdam for ?3 each!! Should have bought the box!

                              RYJ all on the left... my brother gave me these and dont have the hear to throw them out but 90% sure they are fake. Isolated for beetles but none came!

                              IMG_1303.jpg

                              And, the very reason I now need to go to Cuba... pithy attempt! Left handside are non-cubans that I like... except the La Invicta...again, enough with the moaning!

                              So, that well and truly is me! Oh wait no, a treat...

                              IMG_1294.jpg

                              YES- you can recharge BOVEDA!

                              Have a great day!
