Just keep picking up singles and smoking anything that looks interesting to you. I did the same thing with cigars as well as beer. You'll find your wheelhouse soon enough!

I belive that most of us were in the same boat at one time. I broke out of that problem by starting at one end of my local B&M's humidor and smoking everything they had. I started at the bottom with the cheap stuff and worked my way up. I always kept track of the smokes. Todate I have smoked everything up to the 8.00 range. I am now confident in what I like . Along the way I also amply sampled the boutiques and many of the high end stuff as my quoriosity would send me down the Lfd line or the padron anniversary line. No better way then to just jump in and start smoking. Enjoy!

How does one obtain the newsletter? Is this an inside joke I'm on the outside of?

I would offer to send you a copy, but I just sent my last copy out to Galen. Someone else should have a spare copy though.
