Cigar of the month

[BradMc]

I did cigar of the month with CI for a year.

Upside
It was fun.
I got to try many cigars
It seemed cost effective.

Downside
CI acquires many brands for bulk sales that are (ahem) less than stellar.
About 30% of the cigars I received, I had already tried.

If I was going to do it again I would find a site that did fivers and try a different fiver every month based on recomendations. In fact, that is pretty much what I do now except its boxes. :innocent:

Like Chuck said...
I did it for 3 or 4 month, seemed ok, most of the smokes were go, there was a few that were the best of taste, CI does a good job of sending write ups of each Cigar. Good luck

I am going to join the Cigar club at Cigar.com I think. I just want to open myself up to other brands.

That and I was listening to their radio show and they were talking about sending a certain stick to the club that is very hard to get, and this seems to go on every few months or so.

Just as a suggestion, get four guys together and do a group buy of a box a month. Look to the board for suggestions.
You will make three new friends
You will try cigars that people are suggesting as one they like
You get trader ratings
The cost is very similar
No dogs

I would be interested in teaming up on a "box-o-month", if anyone else is interested. Nc's or CC's. Fire it up.
