Well as most of you know I am a new member with the love for tobacco for about 5 years now. I have a good taste pallet and am not picky to picky I loved mixing pipe blends to get that extra flavor, friends joking that some day i could be a fine blender and loving my blends and in them years have had some great tasting cigars of the few I tried. Well just recently I decided to get into full blown the cigar hobby purchased a humidor and some cigars did lots of reading and even future plans of my own blends.
Do you remember that first day when you fully jumped into the cigar hobby. your first Humidor , your first babies that you committed to smoke and take care of. With that being said you know the great feeling I am feeling right now, Its like the time I was sitting in the hospital room watching my son being born. I am a happy father and decided to share my happiness with pics. Please do not confuse this with the mystery box for I have yet to receive it. This is my first humidor,first cigars, the start of my beautiful relationship with cigars.
And nor for the pics..

My first 3 cigars. A bandito from a bundle from CI, A mini Krush classic by acid-drew estate from a bundle of mini tins, and a Thompson Explorer Java Dbl Corona from a deal of day Box.

The cigar hobby is such a great obsession and its great to see you jumping in feet first. Here's to more enjoyment and hopefully a long and involved love affair with cigars!

I jumped in about 2 yrs ago and after all my reading here , decided I "HAD" to get 1 or 2 of every cigar so I can find the 1 for me. Well after almost a year I was more confused about what I like and don't about this cigar or that cigar that I backed off cigars. Personal and $$ issues along with that confused palate reduced me to a mere lurker , which is definately the reason I am TIP TOEING , not jumping back in. The people here are amazing , generous and happy to help any newb that comes here. So the plan is to reseason my 100 ct humi and start again . Good luck CoreyD with the new blends..

sorry for the long post
