I've floated around a while, reading some of the info on the forum here and there. Thought I'd sign up, as I have nobody to talk cigars with IRL.
I've been enjoying cigars since late 2022, when I bought a pack of three Hoyo Epicure Forum for myself, my brother and my father to enjoy on Christmas day. It was a pleasant experience, and my brother and I have enjoyed cigars together since. For my 30th birthday, we visit the smoking lounge at the Lanesborough and each enjoyed a Regios De Punch LE 2017. That was what really hooked me - I loved it. Since then, I've been trying to scratch that itch for a fine, moderately aged Cuban (preferably at a reasonable price!)
I've built up a small collection of boxes in my tupperdores that I'm trying to put some years on. So far, that includes a box of 12 Trinidad Esmeralda & 12 Vigia, a box of 10 Montecristo Wide Edmundo and a box of 10 Hoyo Epicure De luxe LCDH
In terms of what I'm smoking on a regular basis, my favourites include:
I think that's enough about me for now.
tl;dr - hello everyone

In terms of what I'm smoking on a regular basis, my favourites include:
- A lot of the Romeo y Julieta line-up (Short & wide churchills, no 1/2/3, Petit Julietas)
- Montecristo (No. 1/3/4/5)
- Por Larranaga Petit coronas
- I've a box of 25 Cuaba Divinos I'm working through (love the flavour, wish the construction was better!)
- Absolutely love the Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story - only a couple left and will probably need to grab a box when I'm in New York this year
- Macanudo Portofino - bought these in Belgium, a box of 25 tubed. They apparently had been there a while, so are aged by being unloved. But I really loved them, despite the bad press they seem to get. They made me want to seek out smaller ring gauge cigars
I think that's enough about me for now.
