Humbert Humbert Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 Hi hi hi. My name's Andrew, and I've been a lurker here for many months, perhaps years. The company and knowledge you've all provided me has been invaluable, and all that time I've been persistently compelled to register and start participating, but at the same time I've realized my youth and inexperience may yield very little that may be of any interest to you. But seeing as how I do like a good cigar every now and then (although I've been getting into pipes lately, in a big way), seeing this thread pushed me over the edge, and I suppose now's a fine time to begin and introduce myself. I'm 17, I live in LA, I play the trombone pretty well methinks, I dig reading very much; I listen to lots of music, especially jazz of the more modern variety (avant-garde?). And my contribution to this thread is this: Mr. Lester Bowie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catesta Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Trust me, Andrew, age is no deterent to posting. No, but it should be for smoking cigars. 17! Aw, just kidding, I was puffing away around the same age, welcome aboard Andrew. B-) BTW, I've been smoking a pipe from time to time myself, I like it.

Humbert Humbert Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Here's my favorite: The Ashton VSG All sizes kick an equivalent amount of ass. I also really dig these two: The CAO Brazilia Gol! and the Partagas Black Label Magnifico I like my stogies full-bodied. Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim McG Posted September 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 Geez. For 17...you sure know your cigars, Andrew. When I was 17, I smoked Wolff Brother's Rum Soaked Crooks and Swisher Sweets. I am impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 Currently perfuming the room with smoke from a Gispert Habaneras No. 2. Purchased a box of these Small Coronas during an expedition to Andorra where the Havanas are cheaper than anywhere else in the world including Cuba. Other Havanas I bought with the help of the last edition of Havanoscope, a yearly French newspaper size edition that deals with Havana cigars only and rates all the available brands. An amazing range of those are available in Andorra. These are some of the cigars I bought (in small quantities all!): - Bolivar Belicosos Finos, - Cuaba Tradicionales, - El Rey del Mundo Grandes de Espana, - H. Upmann Connoisseur No. 1, - H. Upmann Sir Winston Churchill, - Partagas Serie du Connaisseur No. 1, - Partagas Serie du Connaisseur No. 2, - Punch Churchills, - Punch Double Coronas, - Saint Luis Rey Churchills, - Saint Luis Rey Coronas. Planning to enjoy the Punches I never smoked before. Just an idea of the prices for these handmade cigars, the Punch Churchill sells for €7,15 (about $8,5). The same Punch sells for €12 in Paris stores. The evening is a smoking one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
