I'm the new guy. I am in Portland, Oregon.
Been at cigars for awhile - but had been a "bland"/mild addict for years. Macanudos, or something similar, were by go to for my few cigars a year. I didn't really see much for me in stronger blends.
Then I got my hands on a Padron, and it was all over. Since then, I've been working on steadily expanding my palette.
In the last several months, I've been moving into various new cigars: Eiroa, Tatuaje, Perdomo, etc. (I've spent more than I care to count.)
But I've loved the darker, deeper flavors. Not sure what I was so afraid of!
Anyway, I found this site today after buying tickets to the Broadway Northwest Cigar Festival in Camas, WA, in August.
Great site - and I look forward to learning a ton here!
