Talk about timely I was just on cigar international.com yesterday and was looking over their inventory. what do you recommend? Dude you got to post some pics .....and maybe your cigars set up too

I'm still pretty new at this but they have a ton of good stuff over there. I would look at cigaraficianado.com top 25 cigars and price them out on cigarsinternational.com. You can get great cigars that were top 25 in the past few years for good prices. Recently I've been smoking Graycliffs which are great. Last night I smoked a Romeo y Julieta Havoc which was nice. I signed up for the Cigar of the Month club on CI and I get 4 cigars a month with a pamphlet of info on them. Pretty cool stuff.

Padrons are top quality cigars that I really enjoy but they are usually out of stock in CI. I pick them up at the local cigar shop sometimes. Rocky Patel makes enjoyable cigars too, I recently had a Vintage 1990 that was unreal.

Let me know what you end up buying. My most recent purchase was Padilla Fumas Torpedo Connecticut Mistakes. Bundle of 20 for $20.00. They are cigars with minor mistakes, apparently a great deal... we shall see. I also ordered a box of 50 cigars, a brand I've never heard of... Liga IV Almirante. 50 connecticut cigars for only $39.95. I figure these will be good for smoking while cutting the lawn, doing yard work, or for giving out to friends who aren't big cigar smokers.

Top pic there I'm smoking an Arturo Fuente Short Story. Awesome smoke, and it is a small relatively quick smoke too. Love that cigar. 2nd pic is the Carlos Torano Noventa 90. 3rd pic is me smoking an Alec Bradley Classic. It was decent but I wasn't impressed.

This picture is from my brother's Christmas party last night. I'm in the flannel, my little brother is on the left and the rest are friends. I supplied all the cigars, not going to lie it felt awesome passing them out like I'm some type of aficianado lol.

In this picture I'm smoking a Graycliff G2. Got a nice deal, $39.99 for 20 of these of CI. In the background you can see my 3 drawer humidor. I will take more pics of the humidor and the set up when I have a chance.

Anyone looking to get started, there is an awesome deal on cigarsinternational.com right now. CI's Christmas Workshop Build-a-Combo

Go to the web site, highlight SAMPLERS, and click on CI's Christmas Workshop.

For $49.99 you get a 5 cigar sampler of nice cigars (lots to choose from), a real nice cigar cutter, nice 30-50 capacity humidor, and nice cigar lighter. This is a great start for someone interested in starting cigar collecting.

Agreed, its a great deal. They even have the Oliva sampler pack on there.

As far as RP is concerned, I hear a lot of talk about their cigars. I figured I'd try one and I unknowingly bought one of their highest rated cigars (possibly the highest, not sure) in their 1990 Vintage. It was phenomenal.
