Your right Connecticut is the style of wrapper. It is a light, mild wrapper. There are lots of places to get cigar info

CigarPass.com is internet cigar home, but dont be an asshat or they will rip ya a new one.

You picked out some pretty good cigars, the Pepin might plant you, but they are really good smokes, nice peppery finish, might wanna have food in you for that one.

The Oliva is a good smoke, but the series V is better IMHO. Also if you can find a Rocky Patel Edge Sumatra, that is a great smoke, and not to strong either.

I have only been smoking for about 4 years, but it is a great way to relax, and always go might well with a friend and a homebrew.

+1 to cigarpass.com. I have tried many other cigar forums and most of them are a bunch of assholes but CP is great.

I was on cigar asylum for a long time, which was a new forum that splintered off from one of the bigger forums with a ton of the nicer people. Just haven't spent much time with cigars lately...

Glad you enjoyed the Pepin, he makes great cigars. His factory is about 10 minutes from ours in Nicaragua, I've visited it a few times.

Tatuaje is another brand, manufactured by Pepin but owned by this guy Pete Johnson. Those are great cigars as well. Also, Illusione makes an awesome cigar as well.

I've had this humidor for about 8 years, it's worked well for me and wasn't too expensive

When Pete can make a non Limited release cigar again I may start smoking them once more....

Dion on the other hand....man he puts out good stuff

Pete's Brown and Red Labels are great, and non-limited. But yes, having to chase cigars is annoying. I'm lucky enough to be a friend of Pete's, so we generally get his limited stuff around the office or when I'm down in Nica at our factory.

Dion at Illusione puts out some great sticks. Have you tried anything from our Liga Privada line? I think you would thoroughly enjoy them if you dug Pete's stuff.

All this talk and the weather warming up makes me really need to go home and have a smoke.

I'm smoking a Liga Privada No. 9 right now, sitting on my porch. It's sunny and 78 here.

Bastard! I have a padron 1928 that I have been saving. I might not be able to hold back much longer.
