New to the forum, but not new to cigars. Have been smoking them for 45+ yrs. Belong to several forums and post from time to time.

Started on drug store stogies until introduced to hand rolled. Smoked prewar JdNs mostly until the war there then switched to mostly Hondurans. Smoked Punch Rothschilds for many years at $37/box of 50. Now smoke mostly Nicaraguan cigars as the crop has come back. They haven't been able to recapture the prewar flavor profile, in my opinion, but the tobacco suits me. Smoke probably 75% Nicaraguans in NCs. Mostly of the DPG and Oliva variety, but enjoy cigars of most types.

I am pleased to be here and enjoy reading the forum.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming--Wow--What a ride!
