Greetings from North Carolina

Good evening all!

I'm excited to be a part of this forum.  I'm fairly new to the entire cigar world.  I smoked cigars for a few years back in the early 2000's but gave them up when I kicked the nasty cigarette habit.  Started smoking again about a year ago and already find myself adding more humidors.  Recently my wife has discovered the pleasure of a great cigar (she's hooked on Padron 1964's, I need to find her a CC that is similar or better for the price you pay for them)! My experience so far has been all non-Cubans with the exception of two very well aged Cubans.  One 17 yrs and the other 21,  absolutely the best cigars I've ever smoked, but I was too new to cigars to pay attention to what they were.  I just know they were amazing.  I'm looking forward to learning more about CCs and enjoying the fellowship on these boards.  I've even been a good little newbie and read all the stickies, lol!  I feel like my career as a firefighter/paramedic has prepared me well for the newbie phase that I'll have to go through on these boards!

Cheers!

Eric

Welcome! Quite a few folks from NC here, i'm in the Hickory area. Cuban cigars are great and you found the right place to discover them more!
