Evening.
I'm very new to decent cigars. I'd had the odd Hamlet or Classic over the years and never enjoyed them, and assumed all cigars were like that.
Recently, a friend had been away on holiday and brought me home a couple of Cubans. Being the kind of person I am, I was desperate to know which ones they were.
After much reading and learning, I discovered they were a Cohiba Siglo V and Montecristo No. 2. The research I have done indicates to me they are real, which is reassuring! I've not smoked those two yet but recently bought a Romeo y Julieta Short Churchill, which was the first Cuban I've smoked. The difference between that and my past cigar experiences was astounding. Since then I've been to my local cigar shop and got myself a couple of petit coronas to try too.
I'm also liking the DIY aspect of people's homemade humidors I've seen, and am in the process of building myself a small one. The amount of research I've done recently into silica gel has gone above and beyond!
So my journey begins...
