Hey guys I’m new to the forums and pretty new to the world of cigars and CB in general. Started smoking cigars maybe a year ago but not seriously until a few months ago before I was buying a couple sticks a week having one here or there I gave a friend of mine that didn’t smoke an acid blondie and few weeks later we were going to the lounge together and met a guy there that changed my life introduced me to cigarbid,flathead 660s , and good bourbon very cool dude showed me the brotherhood of being a cigar smoker. I’m not sure what I would say my favorite cigar is I’ve been enjoying the man o war cigars a lot especially the virtue and ruination. Smoking a franks way 105 right now cheap stick but I had to try it. Hopefully this is the right place to post this if not it would only be the 2nd time I posted in the wrong forum haha any way I’m here to hang around see what I can learn and hopefully get in on some trades

FYI you'd expressed some interest in getting involved with the PIBs. Jkpulp is ripe for the picking up in the n00b PIB

I know it just got nice enough to sit on the porch and have a cigar now this week I had to get the coat back out haha

And thank you I responded. Seems like a really cool way to expand my knowledge and palette,I’d like to send a few that I feel like I can taste a few notes really strong and compare with a more experienced smoker to see what they get from it

I’ve never thought of just sticking with one region I definitely need to start making a more planned decision so I can learn what I really like in a cigar I’ve been doing a lot of random grabbing honestly
