Hey there,

Just found this site this week, and been having a blast doing an inventory of my cigars. Finding some really old and interesting smokes I've totally forgotten about.  A little about me, I was stationed in Korea and had easy access to Cubans, and after tasting my first Monty #4, I was hooked.  I spent a fair amount of money on cigars while there, and eventually bought a small desktop humidor to take some home with me.  I sent the humidor in my luggage, but the smokes were mailed home.  And thus, the love of cigars began... from 2-3 cheapo's to the super premiums.

Look forward to getting to know the site and the guys here

Cheers.

I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.
