Hi, I just bought a humidor and need some help. I've had these cigars in my humidor (both humidor and cigars are new). Kept it at 65 humidity (not sure temperature) by keeping it in a cool cabinet with a shot glass of water inside the humidor. Its been less then 3 weeks and the cigars are...

Anyone ever heard of El Pinareño? :hmm: I have a pair of El pinareño Hand rolled Cuban Seed cigars. I've had them for about 3 years now and have never taken much care of them. (never bothered to keep them in the humidor, why not? its beyond me) Anyways, I was originally gifted these cigars by...

Opinion time! I'm noticing more and more that I enjoy my CCs at a dryer storage climate than my NCs. I'd even go so far as to say I like many at 60% because I've never had burn issues or crippling draw problems at that humidity. I just need to find a way to keep my cooler at that RH. I'll...

What is the recommended RH for a "Dry Box"? (I searched but couldn't find elsewhere).

Ok, as promised, here is the review (sorry no picture, maybe I can get one tossed up tomorrow). Initial impressions make me think, huh, I love it and I hate it...what the hell do I do with this? I say this because I was expecting London dry gin and this is much more a genever. But, strangely...

Picked up a bottle of this on the way home from work as my wife texted and said she had a rough day and requires a martini to fix it. So, I'm eagerly awaiting her getting back from the gym so I can do my art with the shaker and see how good this is. I'll do a review when I get a chance as I'm...

Hi there everybody, I've been having trouble with dry cigars at the bottom of my humidor. I'm not sure whey this is happening, even though the top ones got soggy a bit when I added more hudification. I got 45 Punch rothchilds stacked on top of each other; about 10 per row; and the lower...

Late last week I received my first tin of tobacco -- some McClelland Grey Havens. Immediately upon receipt I opened the tin to remove the seal and put it back on the shelf (with the lid on). I've read here that fresh tobacco needs a little drying time before it smokes well. A few days after...

I think I understand what a dry box is for having cruised the forms a bit, (just a "dry" box used for smokes I plan on smoking soon). Maybe someone could better explain the process. My question really is should every cigar go into the dry box before smoking or only certain sticks? How long...

This is where I've been most of the afternoon: Again please pray for all us firefighters!

Was doing some re-arranging today while getting my coolidor stocked up and I noticed almost all of the caps on my cigars in my desktop humi were very dry, brittle and hard. The rest of the cigar is good, just a little spongy with no crackling of the wrapper. Its just the caps. My desktop humi...

Got the sticks from Shuckins...was expecting the RSS Corona but of course there were tag alongs (I would imagine that we are now even for the stray bomb last week Ron?). Can not wait to fire up that Corona...looks amazing! ...and then the mass assault on ZK by David_ESM (aka Squidward)...

Figured I would post some info for those that were not aware. Dry Fly will be releasing their long awaited bourbon on July 30th at the Distillery in Spokane and on August 6th at a liquor store in Seattle. For information on release times, pre-release parties and other such stuff, check out...

Lately it seems like I haven't been able to pick up on any flavors and my cigars just taste like well smoke. I keep my cigars at around 63-64 but lately have bumped them up to 67-68% (hygrometers all checked). They feel fine and the burn and everything has been superb but I just can't seem to...

Literally smoked ROTT for the first one and it was yucky due to humidity. 3 days dry boxing improved this 100%. I assume they will get even better... Read the full review here: Partagas (Cuba) Shorts Cigar Review - Much better after a few days dry boxing

So I am going to Reno for a couple of days in about a week. I want to take plenty of cigars to smoke while I am in the casinos. I tend to keep my cigars at 69%. Do you think it would be safe / cool to just put 10 or so in a dry box (cigar box) and take them like that? Or would they dehydrate too...

Hey, I've been seeing a lot of "dry cured" cigars in magazines lately. Said online they're "%100 natural machine made cigars made mostly in Europe. The dry curing is special oven roasting technique that allows the cigars be stored without a humidor." I was thinking about ordering some, but...

This sucks SO much! Just got some more smokes from my B&M today (2 A. Fuente Sungrown Double Chateau Fuente and 11 Factory Throwout No.44s I think)... The first one I smoked was fine, which was about 6 hours ago. I light up another one, and it's burning like there's no tomorrow... obviously...

I recieved a box of fake CC Esplendidos from my friend. which i was fine with since cuban tobacco is cuban tobacco.... however they are drier then a dead leaf in a dessert... he didnt take care of them etc.:bitchslap: I started to revive a couple. Does anyone else have experince reviving old...

For those that have not seen it will soon. The dry ass Gurkha is on it's way to another member. The pain of this stick is you have to sign the roster of shame and pass it on. I have shipped 6 boxes this week, which one is it in...
