It's often publicized in articles/posts that I read that the montecristo no.2's are very inconsistent and with good reason. My love hate relationship stems from the fact that when they're on, they are simply the best smokes one can experience with bursts of vanilla like flavors of refined smoke...

I have to agree with you on the Bolivar's Bob! The 06' and the early 07' cabs are extremely and I mean extremely flavourful.... Its chalked full of chocolate goodness. But back on topic, the 06' reyes are quite creamy however as centurycigar stated, it seems to turn grassy midway through the...

Just out of curiosity, what did **** do that was so bad? Eugene

Thank you both for your wonderful insight and extremely useful tips. Unfortunately, I am not so great with my hands and the thought of drilling into my fridge with inexperienced hands can be a very dangerous thing ( lol don't ask its a long story ). I do however like rectifythis' suggestion of...

Hi AK, One problem I was running into when diverting the moisture to the bottom tray pan, was that the beads become over saturated (fairly quickly might I add). What have you done to limit this or to avoid having to drain the water and drying out your beads? At the moment my fridge isn't...

I absolutely love how you filled the interior with (spanish cedar i'm assuming) amongst the other various modifications you've done to your vinotemp. The only modification I have done to mine so far is add 1/4 inch thick spanish cedar slide panels and replacing them with the metal shelves.

Hey Darren, Thomas Hinds is the place I normally goto for smokes if I'm in the area ( I couldn't think of the name ) but the LCDH is on yorkville street west of bay (near the corner next to the four seasons hotel). They're pretty laid back but they do watch over you...... I can understand...

Your best bet is to take the plunge and smoke them :whistling:

Thanks for the reference. I had no idea there was an LCDH here! I usually goto the other cigar store within the yorkville area if I feel the need for a quickie. Have you tried Cheers Smoke Shop? it's on dundas and north of mccaul street ( excellent prices although the selection is fairly...

Great cigars, where did you pick them up? I too live in mississauga and i'm very curious to purchase a few myself! Eugene

it really comes down to personal preference. I keep most of my cubans at 62-63% because i find that it tastes the best at these RH levels. The very few dominicans that i have tried, i've noticed that i like them at a higher RH. What i've done is put the dominicans in a ziplock bag and throw...

From my experience, I like to take the cigars out of the tubing when storing them in my humidor. When storing them for 6+ months or more, I've noticed that my humidor had a metallic odour to it and the same applied to the actual cigar being stored.

Would you by any chance have any cabs available? I have alot of dressboxed cigars that I would love to move into cab sized boxes. The least I could do is throw a few good cigars your way.

very convenient indeed! I'll be posting my fridge-o-dor very soon now :) Thanks again Rod

After smoking the Hoyo shorts I immediately ran out and bought a few sticks of Partagas shorts. However, the Partagas shorts had a strong tobacco taste and was not as pleasant as I had hoped. Maybe with a little age they may taste better, but the Hoyo's right out of the box were simply...
