Newbie from Oregon

[Bagman]

Newbie to this site, not to cigars.  I've been smoking Cubans for 20 years.  I started in 1997 and was amazed at the taste.  I quickly fell in love.  I purchased a lot back in 98 and 99 and then quit for a bit.  I think we all know why it was a bad time to bulk up in a new hobby like this during those years.   I have a fairly large collection, around 90 boxes (you know you have too many when you don't even know how many you have!)  I recently went to Cuba for this first time in July.  I absolutely loved it.  Though I can't figure out why anyone would smoke cigars there.  Hot, sticky, and windy.   I went a little crazy and bought 17 boxes. Almost all May/2017.  Not even 2 months of age when I bought them.  

I used to post a lot to the forums at cigaraficiando.com as "Marino"

Churchill is my favorite size, I love the ring gauge and the long smoke time.  I hate fat cigars and cohiba's.  Nothing personal, but for the price, give me a Sir Winston Churchill!
