Tex Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Hello FoH! Just wanted to introduce myself to the great community. I've been lurking for a couple weeks and soaking up the great knowledge on this forum. For the last 15 years or so I have enjoyed NCs off and on. My collection has occasionally grown to 4-5 boxes, however, the last 5 years or so it has slowly burned up to nothing. All that changed with a recent visit to Grand Cayman and the acquisition of a box of Monte #2 and Party #4. I'm hooked. Looking forward to spending time and likely lots of $$$ here. Best, Tex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tex Posted September 13, 2016 Author Share Posted September 13, 2016 Welcome Tex! To manage your journey, may I kindly bestow... :-) The Noob Thread I Never Read.. Buying Cuban Cigars.. Great to have you!Ether, Great tips in your Noob post! Thanks for taking the time to write it up. I recently purchased a box of Monte No. 2 (a favorite when it's on) and a box of Mag 46 (never tried it) from our host. And I'm attempting to keep a tight grip on my CC until these arrive. I'm still discovering the different marcas... Would you recommend continuing to pick up great boxes or broadening my horizons with a sampler? I'm thinking samplers...Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk By all means samplers. They are the best way to begin to understand what you like. Remember to take great notes while smoking slowly which will help a bunch with identifying the tasting notes that resound with you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Posted September 13, 2016 Author Share Posted September 13, 2016 Great advice once again! My faulty short-term thinking keeps focusing on the better perceived value ($/stick) of boxes vs samplers. Good to reminded that starting with samplers is a long-term win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
