No List OUTRAGE
Thought Jamie needs to land it first. What if I sent him candy wrappers and pineapple white owls?
I don't know how this works.
I like age mellowed cigars.
I don't like most MSA lately
Been more into complex medium cigars than powerhouse smokes lately.
I don't like dry/astringent habanos
I have plenty connies
Can I just ask for a package of excellent cigars?
Thing is if there's something I want to try, I buy it and try it. So I really don't have a wants list.
I am an experienced noob. I quit buying about 5 years ago and sorta lost interest. It was always a thing I did to accompany my drinking and eventually my drinking got out of control and I wouldn't even bother with the cigar, just the drink. Last year I finally got sober and really didn't smoke much. Couldn't get into smoking without drinking. Over the 5 years of not buying, I smoked up my entire stash except for a desktop of mostly super premiums/special stuff for that certain occasion that never comes. I started getting back into cigars last November and am still exploring and figuring out what I like. I can taste things better, I can certainly remember them better than before. So really what I'm looking for is to expand things to try. I've been through all the noobish stuff. No Oliva, rocky, Caldwell, Gurkha, flavored, STG/general/ altadis etc.
If this is unacceptable, haze me and I'll put up a list with names. I've been more methodical with my cigar smoking journey this go around. Everything I've smoked I've put up some level of commentary in the whatchu smokin thread. I've kept basic notes in a spreadsheet, trying singles and fivers to evaluate for box purchases. I'm sure I can come up with names but it will take time. I also have a bad habit of buying cigars that I love, and avoiding smoking them because my monkey brain says if I smoke em I'll run out of them. I think I enjoy the pursuit more than the conquest. So asking for repeats is counterintuitive to my quest to discover/ rediscover the cigars I want to buy by the box.
