Title: Hello CGs
Post by: BrockDB on 07/22/2017 06:25 AM
Hello all.  I have been using the CG online humidor for about a year now, so I figured it was time to introduce myself.  I am retired USAF and currently live in the St. Louis Metro area.  I have been smoking cigars for the past year and over that time I have tried/acquired a decent amount of different cigars.  I have been predominantly a Perdomo smoker, but recently been trying to expand my palate by trying other blends and manufacturers. I have primarily been using online purchases and auctions to try and obtain my cigars.  I do not use the B&Ms as much as I would like, but I guess you do what you have to do. I listen to a couple of podcasts and use 1 place for a COTM.  

I am looking forward to interact with everyone, learning and and take my new passion to the next level.    

Brock

 Thank your son for keeping up the good fight!  I do not believe that I ever had a CR cigar.  There doesn't appear to be too many out there
