  If it's an airtight jar, YES.  You should open the jar at least once a week because as cigars age they put out ammonia.  By opening the jar for a few minutes you release the ammonia.  If you go on vacation and don't air it for 2 weeks or so it's not a big deal.  If you use the Boveda packs you...

I fully agree about the Padrons and LP's,etc... I can't afford to smoke the $6 to $12 cigar more than once a week but like to smoke more than once a wee.  Maybe this is a topic for a new thread but;  What are some of the lower cost cigars you enjoy in the $3 to $5 range?   Some suggestions would...

According the info on the website it is bi-directional nano bead technology.  turns white when wet, clear when dry. (just a synopsis.)  "no swell, no gel", etc.  Just wondering if anyone has used it.

Cigar Mechanic beads are more readily available at the retail level on Long Island.  Anyone have any insight to these?  I have a 40 count and a 20 count with the gel bead pucks and I find that they fluctuate between 69% and 72%.  I have a 19 qt. tupperdore with about 40 to 50 cigars in 4 empty...

What is LHOR?

Had a Perdomo Lot 23 natural robusto this morning. Not a bad smoke On way home from NJ Softball tournament while sitting in traffic on the Staten Island Expressway and Belt Parkway, lit up a Puro Indios Viaje 6/60. Threw it out the window by the half way point. Tasted like wet tobacco.

I really like the Hoyo Del Monterey. I haven't had a Punch yet. Which Punch do you think is a good one pick up ?   I would go with the "regular" Punch or a Gran Cru

For really good yard gar that smokes like a $6 or $7 cigar is Schizo.  These are short filler "Cuban Sandwich" from the Asylum line tobacco.  Had one while mowing the lawn and felt guilty I didn't have a finger or two of Makers Mark to pair it with it was that good.  Ash held on for at least an...

I'd go back to the Oliva and TAT.  Throw in some Liga or Undercrown.  If you have only $3 to $5 one day and want to have a really good smoke i'de go with Nica Libre 1990.

Decent week.  Consuegra good smokes.  Hoyo and Punch 2nds.   Had a 5 Vegas Relic today.  Consuegra blows it out of the water for about a 3rd of the price.

Omar Ortiz short torpedo maduro. Really nice smoke

Had a Gurkha Beauty for breakfast.  Too mild for my liking but wasn't a bad smoke for a mild stick

They are Man O´ War Robusto #1, I think. Great construction and flavor. Strong   I think I'll get a bundle this week.  Thanks.

Was thinking of purchasing the AJ Overruns.  What do you think of them without having to do a full blown review?     Had a Nestor Miranda Collection Holguin for lunch.
