    I don't smoke cigars that often, but when I do, I've got the following in my humi:

    1. Don something or other coronas that I get every now and again at a little shop in Marigot, St. Marten
    2. Genuine Counterfeit pre-Embargo (I think they're coronas as well)
    3. Nub "Havanas"

    I smoked frequently about 10 years ago when I lived in Tampa, but have given up the habit/hobby. I started off with the real deal Romeo & Juliet Churchills when I deployed to SW Asia. Having tried many of the true Cuban blends throughout my travels abroad I could never get the get the taste for them. I kept these in my humidor at all times:
    Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur 1066 Dark Knight
    Punch Rothschild Robusto
    Punch Gran Puro
    La Gloria Cubana Serie R Robusto Sumatra
    AVO XO
    I also kept one of my 4 humidors stocked with my everyday and share sticks, Habana Gold Black Label Robusto.

    I've been thinking about getting into cigars lately. Any good "starter kits" out there? I could always buy a decent sampler and humidor I separately just no idea where to start.

    I would look on eBay for a humidor Spanish cedar will probably be best quality at good price look for one that will hold around 50 to 100 cigars, I would get one with digital hydrometer and thermometer it will make your life easier. you will also need to wipe down with distilled water or one of the RH solutions that keep the humidity at a certain level Then you can either get these.
    BOVEDA 2-WAY HUMIDITY CONTROL
    Or one of the propylene glycol gel tubes.


    Check the link out below it will help you get started.

    Google Mike's cigars, look for the baker's dozen.
    I used to be on their mailing list. Their mailers were nice.
