introducing me the newbie

jliu

Hi all,

Newbie here. Not 100% newb actually. I've posted on this website about 2 years or so ago but haven't really kept up w/ it. But since then, I've been a big time lurker (especially within the last 5-6 months). Sometimes it's pretty sick how much I look at this forum haha. At any rate, wanted to hop back on and actually talk to you BOTL and SOTLs.

also, any of you guys in the bay area (east bay, peninsula, south bay, SF area)? Any plans to get together for a smoke? If not, lets get one going

Good to hear from ya brother, you'll have to be more active this time around. What's some of your faves?

danielzreyes

Welcome........again. Jiunn

jliu

yea will definitely post more. you guys are a really nice group of folks. my faves? hmm. padron 64 maduro was my first "wow i love cigars" moment. I can't really name faves but i really enjoy smokes that have a balance of cream, leather, cedar, and semi sweet components to it. I recently had a Art Deco and have never tasted that much leather and cream. I have a tendency to forget the flavor profiles of cigars after about a week (horrible i know haha).

btw - i just saw a "newb welcoming" thread. sorry, didn't mean to be an attention whore at all.

beatnic

whores are welcome. LOL Welcome.

Don't worry about being an "attention" whore, we are all whores in one way or another. Welcome back aboard. If you read twice as much as you post your knowledge bucket will fill quite quickly; so may your humidor.

Daniel, if I wasn't being nice, I would have already acquired his addy, and packaged up his welcome bomb before he really even had a chance to get off the bus. Jiunn is a good guy, I remeber when he first came on and I also remebered who he dealt with so I could obtain said address quickly.

jliu

wow. you remember me from back then? haha nice. I feel honored and full of gas due to the whey protein shake.

I've herfed w/ Hays and Joey (stellar guys). I'm also buddies w/ Boyd. Him and i just had a MoW Armada a few weeks ago.

so get this. i'm usually having a cigar in my little single car garage while watching South Park or Family Guy. But writing a post while having this Morro Castle (awesome cheapola stick btw) is much much better. haha got so excited just ashed on my crotch.

Welcome Back Jiunn... now, start sharing your experiences with us.

experiences. lets see here. one of my most memorable cigar stories is when my buddy and i went to vegas a few weeks before he took off to NY for school. it was sort of a best of luck buddy, lets smoke some incredible cigars. during that weekend we had padron 45 year anniv, padron 40 year anniv, dirty rat, MoW armada, AB tempus, Opus X lost city, tat black, oliva v. it really opened (and spoiled) my tastes buds haha.

cigars to me is best enjoyed w/ a fellow BOTL. I absolutely love talking about the cigar, life, etc when having a smoke. the camaraderie of having a cigar w/ a BOTL is unmatched. For the folks that don't understand this, they're really missing out. I would love to be the guy that opens up that world to them. ok that's enough ranting for now haha. I LOVE the entire cigar experience.

Hey jliu.. That sound like an incredible weekend of smokes. After those it is hard to go back to the evryday stuff we normally burn. Your post made me want to dedicate a weekend to Super Premiums only. I will have to do that soon.
