(i) Definitely offer cigars;
(ii) Definitely ask others to bring their own. They will experience the sharing of cigars, as well as be prompted to share their tastes and experiences;
(iii) If you don't mind going into the business end, by all means, sell some too. People will get an idea of what's in the market, and you might make some money to help with club expenses. Broken toilets cost money to fix. :sm_angel:

Wow!!! That's a hard one. I've been smoking cigars for 8 1/2 years, and although I've only smoked about 1,000-1,500 cigars, it's hard to pick out a "best moment." I've had quite a few good moments, both indoors and out. I've also never smoked the same cigar twice in a row, or drank the same bourbon or rye twice in a row. That's the great thing about cigars. There's enough out there to get endless variety, and enough of what you like to wind up coming back to certain cigars as "mainstays" no matter what your tastes are.
And there are also those times when every cigar you smoke seems to taste lousy or have a bad draw. I had a period like that recently. :argh: :mrgreen:

One nice thing about the internet is doing cigar clubs.
If you set up to take tasting notes & find enough people you can buy an entire box ata time and save money.
I suggest each person gets 2 of any cigar - often there can be a bad stick here or there & it gives a better over-view.
It does take away from the getting together part, but much fun can be had in comparing how different people view the same cigar.
Just an idea?

jrinam said:splitting boxesis good idea, one i often thought of. but have no local friends that smoke.
That's the beauty of the internet. You could split a box with anybody. Guy that does the actual purchase usually gets the odd cigar. Cuz if I split a box of 25, I don't want 12 and then a half one. That would suck.

I have no reason not to trust anyone here. I post on several boards, and there are very few jerks. As for folks here, I've only traded with Bloofington, and he is way too generous.
You just have to keep posting, and when everybody gets to know you, you'll never have a problem.

Or, as Jimmy Hoffa said, that famous American all-too-true saying:
"Sooner or later, everybody does business with everybody."
