My name is Cheyenne. I am a seven year Marine Corps disabled veteran living in MA. Currently I am finishing my degree in Supply Chain Management & Management of Information System at Northeastern University in Boston. I also work for P&G/Gillette.
My father recently introduced me to cigars a few months ago when my parents came up from MO for my wife's baby shower. I've been hooked ever since.
I've generally smoke mild's, my first was a Davidoff Special T. Of course that's not in my price range, so tried & and became fond of Oliva serie G, AVO classic, Casa Torano, Perdomo Champagne R & Ashton. I tried a Cusano 18 Paired Maduro the other day, and really enjoyed it. I think I would enjoy more complex-full flavored smoke as I enjoy just about everything else full-flavored.
I joined COTM mid-June, but have not smoked any of the Gurkha's yet. I'm letting them rest. I will most certainly smoke one this weekend as I smoke a pork picnic for the 4th. I like to show these Massholes how to truly BBQ!
Welcome, zoom. Sounds like you and I have traveled similar smoking roads. I, too, used to smoke pipes, then cigars, then a long sabbatical, and now cigars again.
Hey Cheyenne, welcome to the group...This is a great place to hang out with knowledgable friendly people.. You do sound like ya' have a lot going on.. Avo is one of the cigars that got me hooked, a very pleasant mild smoke as well as the Davidoff line.. Try some 5 Vegas..Classic are a great place to start.. If you like something with a bit of a kick Try 5 Vegas "A" and the Miami.. Get in here often and let us know what you like and " what 'cha smokin " I love hearing suggestions and then trying them out for myself.. Enjoy your Holiday
Oh No !!! Thats two Previous pipers in the last two weeks Finally people are coming to their senses.. And we have another Virginian in our group as well..Welcome zoom it's nice to have new members with us..There was a recent discussion here about homebrews, rather popular among cigar smokers here too...
Looks like you will have a lot to share..
Chey, OOHRAH Devil Dog...welcome to the forum.
Olive G is my Favorite right now. The O was ok but if you haven't had the V...ya gotta try that one too. It took me 2 nights to smoke it but the flavors were wonderful.
Welcome Matt...I'm new here too and you will learn a lot on the boards here. Good start with the Torano, I forget that one sometimes but I really like them.
I smoked another Carlos Torano the other day, but I can't remember what it was. They're a good smoke, and fairly affordable for a broke college student!
i have smoked a few from the torano line, they have not disappointed me yet. Pick up an Oliva G, its a great smoke for the price.
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm probably heading out to the local shop later, so I'll keep it in mind.
If anyone has anymore suggestions, please share, it's much appreciated.
Welcome aboard Matt. You'll definetly learn a lot here and because its a fairly small(but growing) community you can easily become part of the group instead of being ignored as a newb like happens on bigger forums.
Well Matt , you came to the right place.. People here enlighten and entertain me every day..Matt , you have a Super Hero name, either that or a "movie star" ..

Matt, I forgot to mention, Carlos Torano Signature, fine smoke ..and my new found everyday fav. 5 Vegas Classic, affordable and taste like it should cost twice the price..

well my real name is Shane im sure i will be here for some time as cigars has become a hobby for me and maybe a passion im always looking to try new kinds so if you want to send me some ;P just ask for my info or if there is a recommendation you have just tell me that aswell!
The names Brad. I'm 29 and live in St. Louis. I've been smoking cigars casually for a few years now but just last month decided to jump in head first. Got me a humi, which i'm having a couple issues with(you may have read "The Humi Blues" post), but i'm trying to sort them out. For the most part I'm impressed by this community and will continue to stalk/post these boards. A few of my favorites include, almost anything from RP, Padron 1926, partags black label and Cao mx2.
Peace in the middle...west.
Brad

Yea, yea what he said.
Thanks for backing me on this one Maddy.. Have you had to call out " pest control " lately ? Things seem to go wrong for you if you leave your cigars unwatched for too long..

No I haven't. Only Edge, Decade, Fusion DM and Signature 500. I've loved them all. Is the Summer Collection available on CCOM?
Not on ccom that I'm aware of, check your local B&M. Mine is out of them for the moment, possibly forever or I'd be offering one to you. I'm hold tight on the ones I have left. Its a habano wrapper with a cameroon binder VERY interesting cigar.

Okemah, My favorite from Patel is the Vintage 1992. ( 1990 and 1999 are fine examples as well ) I like the Edge alot, as well as the Fusion. and sun grown..
