<p>Okay here we go !<br><br>
So I restarted smoking cigars after my little brother brought me some cigars back from his trip to Cuba in 2011. After smoking some I started looking and sneaking around the net on the subject and became intrigued by the all those cigars! Bought a humidor and found this wondeful place (well my wallet would say the contrary but it can go to hell).<br><br>
I had the chance to go myself to Cuba on a trip with my lovely girlfriend. On top of having a very nice week on the beach I tried different brands and brought some 'memories' back home with me. This is where everything went downhill !<br><br>
Since then I expanded my horizons to the NC part of the cigar world and I have to say some are pretty suprising and some other woderfull.<br><br>
I'm a buisness analyst / IT consultant and mainly work for the GVT of my province. In the summer I love BBQin' with the boys while having a good scotch and a stoogie. When falls comes around I hunt some big game with the boys. In the winter I wont suprise anyone when I say I dont do much except snow plowing and partying inside next to the fireplace (and sipping a good scotch...see a pattern here ?). When spring completes the cycle I hope I created a new tradition of going to the forbiden Island to bring back some goodies! (well hopefully)<br><br>
Overall I consider myself an ultra newb since I have not tasted lots of brand and vitolas but I can still say that I better like the CC vs the NC.<br><br>

Best CC so far: Cohiba Behike 52<br><br>
