Watching ACC Tournament, a Jas Sum Kral and coffee.

My humidor is holding at 65% RH with 4 72% boveda packs. I just got an acrylic jar that's holding steady at 65% also with cigars in it. I'll continue using the jar for the rest of the winter and use the humidor in the spring and summer when my house RH will be a lot higher.

The Tatuaje Brown Labels go way up there! I'll start out with the Montecristos, Macanudos, Ernesto Perez, Ashtons and slowly build up a collection.

Thanks for the recommendations.

Do any of the casual smokers here use the air/water tight travel cases for their cigar storage? I see some nice looking 5 to 25 ct. cases on Amazon.

I'm a newbie here and would like some recommendations on mild cigars in the $6 to $12 range. Thanks in advance.

After reading through some more threads, I've put away the 84% Boveda packs and replaced them with two small dishes with distilled water in them. In two hours the RH was higher than with the Boveda packs.

Thanks Rod. That's the answer I was looking for.

I like his cigars. Google has a bunch of good reviews.

My son is an on-line friend of Steve. He told me go and meet Steve at the Old Virginia Tobacco Co., last year. I went and met Steve, very nice man and he gifted me one of his Unicorn cigars. Haven't smoked it yet, letting it age. I've been smoking the Mi Queridas. Very nice cigar.

Using 84% boveda packs to season a new humidor for 1-2 weeks, what RH percentage needs to be reached to start using it?

Back into cigars after many years. Really like Steve Saka's (Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust) cigars. In particular the Mi Querida cigars.

Crooks everywhere!

I just finished caulking with the aquarium silicone on the inside of the humidor, so no worries about how it it looks. It does look OK though. I've had experience with caulking before. I do have a tupperdore that I'm using now, works very well. If I decide to buy more cigars, I'll use both.
