Very very good cigar, one of my all time fav. When you are done smoking it let me know what you think.

Addiction is such a strong word. I prefer passion

I beleive Cigar Merchant had a custom Pepin Blend at one time. Did you notice any while there?

I tell you what, that Khari guy set you up on the right track. He hooked you up with an underrated but great value cigar in my eyes in that Camacho Negro.

Dude I felt like I was lost in a maze walking trough there. It may have been there, but I can walk there from my house. Do you need me to check for you?

 

[tone-ny]

Khari nicely done, no better way than to get someone that knows cigars to mentor you!

 

[MoeCizlak]

Khari is good people, well done buddy.

Golfanatic, remember to jot down notes while you're starting out. Note what you like and don't like about each cigar and take that info with you on your next visit to a shop or post it on CP and more suggestions can be made based on your info. I know the Newbie Sampler Trade has been mentioned and I cannot recommend that highly enough. Welcome to the passion and to CP!! :thumbs:

Thanks for the tip and that's a good idea.

 

[Rodrigo de Jerez]

Khari, that's a great gesture.

Maybe you can go shopping with me at Puff N Stuff one day...

[Golfanatic]

yeah I would love to!

Tatuaje Noella

The Noella is one of my favorite sticks. I got one in my newbie sampler with some age on it and it was very tasty. Once your done with those sticks you should check out the buy/sell/trade forum and get in on the newbie sampler. $50 (or more if you wish) will get you some great sticks usually with some age from our resident FOG's.

Nicely done Khari.

I second this! Gonzo really added some cigars to my list... The Greycliff Expresso too was an amazing smoke in my sampler... The Expresso two came out last night at the Greycliff event... Money well spent! :thumbs:

Edit Removed "wish list"...

Easy on the "A" word bro, like MadMonk said, we prefer Passion or Hobby

Glad you got some solid smokes, enjoy.

If you happen to be in there, sure. If you smoke one, I'd like to hear your thoughts. Last time I checked, which was a year or two ago, they were 10 bucks a pop.
