No longer a box virgin

BradNC · 11-30-2009, 04:50 PM

Well, I've been enjoying cigars for about 2 years I think. I have a Diamond Crown 100 count desktop humidor that has kept me in check and helped me manage my purchases. JE3146 has always told me I should get a cooler, a Vino or have a cooled Aristocrat made (a dream of mine) but I've resisted.

Anywho......today my first box purchase came in. There aren't a ton of cigars in the box but as I've said before....I refuse to potentially risk my health on anything but a great stick. I look forward to trying one of these!

Thanks for letting me share this with you all.

Congrats bro!!! Was 2 years before I bought my first box and another year before I bought my 2nd.

11-30-2009, 04:54 PM

Congratulations, nice box to start with! Wowzers!

TheBeard · 11-30-2009, 05:01 PM

What a coincidence. Today arrived the first full box of cigars that I have purchased for myself. I've gone half on a box with Tanith before, but today I got my first own full box.

Congrats!!!

Looks like a good one for your first!!!

Jbailey · 11-30-2009, 05:17 PM

Looks like a great first box, enjoy.

Careful where you place your next step, your dangerously close to falling down the slope.

God those look delicious. I wish my B&M had some. Great first box purchase. My one and only so far was a box of Sancho Panza Double Maduros.

11-30-2009, 05:19 PM

Nice! Great way to start off!

11-30-2009, 05:25 PM

Wow, my first box was no where near that good or sought after.

kelmac07 · 11-30-2009, 05:43 PM

Way to bust that cherry!!

hotreds · 11-30-2009, 05:45 PM

Congrats!

elderboy02 · 11-30-2009, 06:00 PM

Those are delicious

GreekGodX · 11-30-2009, 06:18 PM

Another cherry popped!!

11-30-2009, 06:53 PM

Nice man!! Haven't pulled the trigger on a box yet myself either. Been smoking just over 2 years. Been looking at a couple lately. When I finally do it will probably be something like some San Cristobals or Rocky Patel Vintage 90 or 92's.

Zanaspus · 11-30-2009, 07:13 PM

Congrats! I know the joy. I just pulled the trigger on my first box this weekend. The Monster Cain Maduro deal got me.

what a good way to pop that cherry!!! delicious smokes! btw.. they are smoking GREAT right now, no need to age em.

BradNC · 11-30-2009, 07:23 PM

Yep, my dad always told me that rich girls kiss just the same as poor ones (and have the same parts) so why not go for the good stuff in cigars too.

I was wondering if these should sit for a bit after coming through the mail.
