Hello all, I stumbled across this site when looking for a review on (of all things) a cheap cigar. It was Avocado or something and I was just confused why it was named avocado... Anyway the site looked really cool so I joined up and am looking forward to seeing how the community is. I'm 20 years old and in college and have been only smoking cigars for about 3 years with this past year actually appreciating real cigars. Before learning about cigars I had started with Backwoods then cheap cigars until now I enjoy quality hand rolled cigars.

My first real cigar was a La Gloria Cubana given to me by my uncle that frankly, kicked my ass, and I passed out. Oddly enough I enjoyed that cigar that it sparked my interest, were as of now cigars are my hobby.

I smoke about 1 each day and my current favorite is the Hoyo De Monterrey Excalibur 1066 Dark Knight

"Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed - Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, 'It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.'" -Jack Handy

Welcome from Upstate NY (Albany)!

I found those Avocado's to put into our database.  While I have never personally smoked one, I found it interesting that someone thought this would be a good marketing name.  (They have a candela wrapper, which is green, thus the name.)  But apparently Larry has now tried one and liked it, so what's in a name??

In most realms, tranquility comes from ownership.
Order ensues when everyone totes their own water.  
Stand firm, and never let the bastards grind you down.  
Life's arc is primarily charted between ones ears.
Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
Heaven is where the police are British, the lovers French, the mechanics German, the chefs Italian, and it is all organized by the Swiss.
