New to the joys of a fine smoke

Hi!

I would suggest checking out ebay for humidors.

A few of my fav smokes right now are the El Rico Habano torpedo/belicoso, camacho diploma, la aroma de cuba churchills, and la gloria series R's.

Favorite smokes thread

There's a thread on this forum concerning favorite smokes. That would be as good a place as any to start.

definately try cusano hermanos if you like mild smokes.

as for the humidor go the http://www.cigar.com and check out the other section under accessories. They sell scratch and dents really cheap.

Blaw, welcome to the world of cigars. Many good smokes out there, hard to suggest something though. So many varieties and so many different tastes and preferences. In regards to a cheap humidor, look at your local tobacconist for humipacks. This is an inexpensive way to store cigars. You might also consider a tupperware container and a damp sponge, hygrometers are readily availabe thru Radio Shack. That is another inexpensive way to get started until your certain you going to stay with your new found hobby. Once your sure, you will have no use for a cheap humidor, so save your money to buy smokes.

Hey Blaw,

I see your also asking about flavored cigars. Just a word of wisdom, your not going to want to store your flavored cigars with your unflavored cigars. You will ruin your unflavored cigars. The two don't mix, if your planning on dabbling in both, you may want to consider two storage units of what ever type you choose to go with.
