Hi,



I've been pouring through his wonderful book for the past year and I'd like to know more about him. I believe that he writes for C.Gars.Ltd in England under the pseudonym of the "Cigar Advisor". I've also heard rumors that he is a physician in Hong Kong. I’ve also heard that he has one of the most extensive collections of cigars and cigar related material in the world. I really haven't heard much else. Any information or contact information would be great. Thanks

Min Ron NEE is actually a fictitious name the gentleman from Hong Kong used to write the most comprehensive book ever written about post revolution (1962) Cuban cigars. I've read, re-read and re-re-read his book on numerous occasions. It sits next to my desk at work and I use it when deciding which cigars to buy (I don't necessarily agree with everything he says nor do I buy everything that he says is a must, but I do use him as a tremendous resourse tool for buying and aging cigars). It is a MUST for true Habanos Collectors and smokers.

For those of you who no longer check the 'other' site, there really is some interesting info on this topic. I by no means have anything to add factually, so I can't say for sure if that information is legit or not, but if you're interested in this topic, you may want to check it out.

This book came up at the recent New York Herf, conversation went sort of like this:

Pulses Girl to Ironman's wife:

Another BOTL's Wife:

Ironman:

Ironman's Wife:

What is it about MRN that inspires people to take a dump? My wife complains about about the book being the bathroom all the time. I just tell her that is why we have seperate bathrooms. :smt104

If I am ever at your house for a herf please remind me NOT to touch your MRN book! I don't want to touch that thing if you have been reading it while releasing brown trout
