Newbie says what?

Hey all

I've been reading the forums here for a little while and thought I'd step in to introduce myself. I've learned quite a bit in a relatively short time and wanted to say thanks for that. I've been smoking cigars since 97 or so but consider myself a "newbie smoker." I don't smoke everyday.

I've been looking for what I call my "definitive stick" by trying a number of them. Anybody have any recommendations?

I guess that's like saying "Has anybody seen the sun today?" Heh...

I've tried various strengths, sizes, and wrappers in various price ranges. I'm thinking about trying a few Hemingways, any thoughts?

Thanks, and looking forward to my time here.

Andy Beyard

OK, what is the Dark Side?

Is it Maduro Wrapped cigars or something else?
