A Little Intro

Well, I'm rather new to this whole blogging thing, but I guess it's a good way to give me an outlet to all my raves and rants about cigars. Over on the CigarAficionado.com Forums, I saw a few other guys post some of these so I decided to give this whole writing thing a go. I don't know quite how my writing style and palate will translate into an enjoyable cigar review and learning experience (I hope it ends up that way), but I'm going to give it my best show.

Now to the actual intro. I go by thaterp over on the cigar forums, but for the purposes of this blog Terp works just fine. I'm only 20 but I've been a serious smoker for going on 2 years now. The drawback to being a student however...wait, I forgot to mention I'm a student...well, anyway, being on a budget makes enjoying Padron 80ths every day, or even every month, a pipe dream for me. However, I have been able to build a nice collection and make a few favorites. I'll end my first post with a few humidor pictures and as always, feedback and comments are always appreciated.

The boxes are stored below the trays and most are half empty or so. I wish I had a picture of all of them together, but i have about a dozen separate ones. My list for now is...
Box of Monte #4 cc
Box of Juan Lopez PC cc
Box of Fonseca Cosacos cc
Box of Partagas Culebras cc
5x5 of Jose L. Piedra Cremas
Box of Oliva Serie G Toro
Box of Don Pepin Garcia Cuban Classic 1979

Box of Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur Epicure Maduro
Box of Oliva Connecticut Reserve Lonsdale
and a Box of some assorted Cubans, mostly robusto and petite coronas
