Reddit has so many really dumb posts--but if you use the search feature you can find what you are looking for--and ignore the rest.

Re: New cigars?

The CCs are going to be tough for a while--it looks like Covid hit them hard.

Re: Your first box purchase?

I _still_ like them after all these years--but they need a few years to mellow out properly.
