Hello Fellow Cigar Smokers, My name is Kevin. I've been smoking cigars and pipes since 1998. I like to cook, enjoy wine and spirits, love music, the fairer sex, and I am actually a cat person. I just like that they can be purring one second and ripping the head off of a bird the next. I like to travel, go to nice restaurants and enjoy just about every type of cuisine, but tend to have spicy Mexican, Cuban and Spanish food the most. I like a lot of cigars, but one of my all time favorites is the Padron 1964 Anniversary. (It is not the "Anniversario" like so many people mistakenly refer to it.) Anyway, that's a little bit about me. How about you?

Hey everyone, I'm Shannon from Winter Haven, FL. I've been smoking cigars for almost 20 years now. I've developed a real passion for them and they are a staple in my daily life. I used to be a professional musician and now I own a painting company in central Florida - Legion Bros. Painting, Inc. I love this country and HATE illegal immigration! I'm into tattoos, weight lifting/bodybuilding, music that isn't mainstream, pipes, and of course CIGARS! My regular favorites are Partagas D4(HABANOS), H. Upmann No. 2(HABANOS), Padron 5000 Natural, Joya de Nicaragua Antano Gran Consul, Montecristo Edmundo(HABANOS). My favorite special smokes are Perdomo Edicion de Silvio Salomon Maduro, Fuente Anejo Sharks & 55s, Partagas Lusitanias(HABANOS), Padron 80 Years Maduro. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone and watching this site EXPLODE!

Hello, I'm Kyle from Nebraska. I've been smoking for 16 years now. I love to cook, fish, read, watch college football, and Nascar. I like all types of cigars. I tend to gravatate to the smaller ring gauges 50 and under. Some of my favorite brands are E.P. Carrillo, Pinar Del Rio, Tatuaje, La Flor Dominicana, Illusione, Padron, and many others. I look forward to seeing this site grow.

Hello everybody. I am Kip, from Florida - originally from the mountains of East TN; transplanted in '99. Been enjoying both pipes and cigars since 1994 to varying degrees (ranging from "a lot" to "way more than one man should"). I enjoy cigars from many makers(Tatuaje, DPG, LFD, EPC, etc.) and will try most anything at least once. However, as you can see from my profile pic that I am admittedly a total Fuente 'ho. Like wlfwalleye, I tend to lean toward what would be called smaller cigars today - corona and all their variants, robustos, on occasion toros and churchills. I don't dig the 6X60 fad, though. As for pipes, I have somewhere around 150 pipes and about 110 lbs. of well aged/aging pipe tobaccos. Don't really smoke any aromatics, I appreciate english-ish blends, with the occasional virginia to break the monotony.

Hi all, I just came over from pipesmagazine.com. I'm John Fruhmann from Bethlehem,Pa. While we're home to CI and Famous I generally hang out and buy my Camachos from Tobacco Village in Whitehall,Pa.
Been smoking cigars since the early 1970's and go through about a box a week in addition to my pipes.
Its great to have a site like this and I'm sure it'll be as friendly and fun as the pipe forum Kevin runs.
Glad to be here.

John

I'm here, bring on the cigars and usher in the dancing girls.
Let's get this party started !!!

Been smoking cigars and pipes since 9/06, Fuente seems to be the go-to favorite, but like Padron, Hoyo, and many boutique favorites.

Hello, my name is Robert and I'm from Neptune Beach, Florida. I have been smoking cigars for about 7 years now. Some of my favorite everyday smokes would have to be camacho triple maduros, tatuaje, and kristoff sumatras. My favorite cigar that I have ever smoked would have to be the padron serie 1926 no. 1.

Howdy folks; figure its time for a token Canadian to make themselves known here! I've been smoking cigars with some regularity since my '99, although I certainly don't consider myself a serious cigar smoker, turning to my humidore perhaps weekly, rather than daily. In addition to the odd cigar, I smoke pipes and cigarettes, and on occasion take a pinch of snuff.
I spend several hours a day working as a partner in an Immigration and Business Consulting firm, based out of Vancouver, British Columbia. In my spare time, I enjoy a wide variety of hobbies, ranging from outdoor activities to noodling around with my guitars. I have recently been given the chance by this sites illustrious leader to put a part of my education (B.Sc. - Food Sciences; Sensory Evaluation - think of the fellow with the golden spoon at Hagen Daas) to good use reviewing pipe tobacco blends, and I strive to bring the same experiences here.

Happy Smoking,

Adam J. Smith

Hi all. My name is Paul I'm from Tennessee. I enjoy reading, recumbent cycling, and trying to teach myself the board game go. I smoked cigars for a while but have laid off them the past couples years. Been considering coming back to them for a while. As with Baskerville, I'm a member on another forum also. Seen a link and decided to dive in.

Hi my name is steve, was over at the old site also, good to see you back in the game Kevin. Also good to see Stan again! I have been smoking cigars for about 8 years, really seriously for the last 6 or so. My favorites include Tatuaje line, Graycliff's, Rocky Patel, My Father, and quite a few Ghurka's, but I have a wide array of cigars in my collection, in the med/full range. Glad to be a part of the site.
