Cletus Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 Hi Everyone. I'm here to gain a better understanding and appreciation for Cuban cigars. I've been smoking cigars for a few years now but have yet to have a Cuban because, well, they're illegal here. I'm heading to Mexico in a few months where there's an LCDH and I want do some research before making a purchase. Or I might just buy Cubans from the souvenir shop hawkers <wink>. Along with gaining a better education on Cubans I also hope to increase my international slang vocabulary in order to impress my friends and family. From this site I've already discovered great phrases like "Tossers" and "Wankers" and "whinging pain in the arse". So I'm going to browse around a bit and maybe ask a stupid question or two. But I promise not to be a whinging pain in the arse, unless I really don't understand what that means. It's not yet 9:00am here in Colorado. I've got to go get some coffee now because I'm knackered. -Leroy
Danashan Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 From one newb to another - welcome! You may take your chances in Mexico or just get a sampler from Czar. I'm waiting for mine as we speak
riderpride Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 Welcome to FOH! Where in Mexico are you headed?
aavkk Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 Hey Leroy welcome to the forum! Do yourself a favor and visit the LCDH when you go and even purchase a single or two but otherwise bring your own- LCDH prices are steep and unless you find a rare hard to find box that can be found nowhere else I think your better off right here.
Cletus Posted November 6, 2009 Author Posted November 6, 2009 Welcome to FOH! Where in Mexico are you headed? I'll be heading to Playa del Carmen. This will be my fourth trip to the Rivera Maya. I've also vacationed once in Puerto Vallarta.

Yeah, I figure the prices will be steep since it is a tourist destination. I just want to make sure they're legit so I'm stuck with the LCDH for now. And yes, I am planning on bringing down a few of my own cigars. I'm sure the LCDH is gonna stick it to me!
