Hello, Eric. We got to know each other a bit during the BOTL sponsored DE Cigar Safair in Nica last month.
I've been studying and smoking premium cigars for 39 years and have had access to fine Habanos for nearly that long. I confess that my workdefending high profile criminal cases and family time with my wife and three young daughters hasn't left me a lot of time to be a heavily posting fellow. But I do strongly feel I would be a valuable contributer to the Habanos Forum community.
I have traveled to Cuba and once spent 8 days just in Havana just checking out the more rare and finer cigars, without regard to whether they are heavily hyped. I have been collecting, aging, and smoking and studying Habanos for many, many years.
In an effort to demonstrate my devotion to Habanos (as much as my devotion to Non-CC's I'm responding to a thread started by Brooks to list our CC booty, here's mine:
