  • G'day from London

    G'day fellas,

    I've recently moved from Aus to the UK and living in London for the next few years. Started getting in to cigars towards the back end of last year through a mate of mine back home, so i'm still very much a novice.

    My favourite cigars so far are Montecristo White and Torano Salutem, but i'm still in the exploratory phase and trying to learn to pick up on the flavours. I was using a notepad journal, but now I've set up a fairly detailed excel database to track my likes/dislikes to bring me up to speed.

    Whenever I can I like to start my weekend mornings with a coffee and a cigar on the terrace, I wish I had discovered this earlier in life!

    Currently I'm ordering online but not sure if there's better options for UK? The B&M stores so far seem absurdley expensive!

    I'm a big fan of Formula 1 (carn Danny Ric!), I'm heading to the Belgian GP in a couple of weeks which has been a bucketlist item for a long time. I'm also getting in to the football as well, so COYS.

    Looking to make contacts in the UK / London area to catch up with for a smoke and to talk some shit.

    Cheers guys.

          Welcome

          Yes UK prices are ridiculous, B&M shops even more so. I would suggest when you go to Belgium picking up some cigars there, prices will be much lower.

            Cheers guys.

            Living in Fitzrovia at the moment, in the shadow of the BT Tower and deep in red enemy territory. I'm already dreading my first St Totteringhams Day!

            Good suggestion with purchasing while overseas. We've done some trips to France / Italy but I'd only ever bought a handful of stogies to have while wandering about, not to take home.

                  Cheers guys.

                  I was going to make a new thread but thought i'd ask here first, what is the etiquette for COSA's? Are there any popular COSA's that are BYO?

                        We were talking about this recently. I think it was 10 Manchester but here's the link http://www.ukcigarforums.com/showthr...110-Wardour-St

                        There's a new app which Deano shared yesterday to show all the local places to buy smoke etc
