Hello, Glad to be here

I've heard so many great things about this place that I finally joined up. I am a humidor manager in central Texas, though my interests here are strictly for personal use. I will be the first to admit that though I am lucky enough to earn a living doing something that was originally a hobby, there is still plenty left for me to learn about cigars. I am also not a snob about tobacco (at least I try not to be). I can dig anything from a $2 bundle stick to a $30 flagship smoke so long as it does a good job for the purpose it was intended. Currently I am really digging stuff from Nicaragua and La Flor Dominicana. I am no stranger to Cuban sticks, but I don't get to smoke them as often as I like. I am very excited to hang out, learn a bit, and get to know some new folks.

Welcome to FOH. Like Kanga mentioned...I envy you your job. Must be amazing! Even better to be able to smoke a cigar on the job. Hope you enjoy your time here. A plethora of knowledge and knowledgeable people can be found here. Good luck.

Wow! Nice job! Welcome to the forum!

I wonder - after a few months of sitting here on the forum, whether you'll still want to manage that humidor, which I'm sure is full of NCs! :wacko:

Cheers.

There is a lot of NC stuff that I like as much as a lot of Cuban stuff. I enjoy how unique each country can be when you get to try the best examples of each. I just wish I could have a Cuban when I was in the mood for one :-) The experience is definitely a sad hole in any smokeshop's inventory in the States.

And as far as my job, it is quite fun. I love introducing people to new stuff. It is really cool when you hit the nail on the head for someone and they return all smiles.

So, a bit more than a year later, I finally placed an order, haha. In the meantime, I also left my job as a humidor manager in Austin to start a Ph.D. at the University of Florida. Been a busy 12 months to say the least.

On a serious note, I understand that the weather has been a little less than ideal in the Czar's neck of the woods. I hope everyone is OK.
