You don't want to soak the humidifier, just get it damp. You don't want it to drip water on your smokes or into the humidor. If you get it too wet, leave it sit upside down outside the humidor on a paper towel until your sure it won't drip. Use some 50/50 solution initially, not just...

I haven't taken the time to try the smaller ring sizes yet. I think 48 is about the smallest I've tried. This is mostly because I want something that lasts awhile so I've stuck with robusto and toro sizes. If I can take two hours to enjoy a smoke, I'm really happy.

looks like an Atuck attack

Thats how I feel on the B&M here too, BT. We got a 40% tax on msrp here I believe, so its hard not to go for pricing over the net. But I try to throw some business to local for singles, trying new sticks, events, etc. And he gets all my Opus X purchases (not that its a lot).

RP Vintage 1992 Toro. This is the third from a fiver I ordered back during the blistering heat in early July and the first two were just plain dry...wrappers flaking, caps falling off. I was able to restore some humidy to the remaining three. Turned out to be pretty tasty, glad I made the effort.

Fiver of Bolivar Toros and fiver of JR Ultimate Toros. Haven't tried either yet but both have the most juicy looking dark wrappers.

now everyone else in your town is doing without opus'. sweet score.

Don't know how to explain the purchase in the first place, but now that you got room, you can explain you need more sticks to fill it up so it will maintain humidity properly...you don't want a bunch of wasted space in there. Then when its full, you can explain that you need to upgrade to get...

I grabbed a couple of churchill 59s last weekend during a Tarano event. I'm hoping I'll be on the side of those that enjoy these. Also snagged a couple of Signatures, which will be another new try for me as well. I'll probably let them set for another couple of weeks and then see how they do...

I prefer the maduro, but try them all!!

I loved living in Germany--Wiesbaden, wish I had stayed there longer. Maybe someday I'll get back that way for a vacation.

If the pace fits you then its not too slow, its the enjoyment that counts. I've noticed that it takes me longer to smoke one here in colorado, at about 6,000 ft elevation than when I'm visiting lower lying places. Don't know if the thinner air at altitude has anything to do with it, or maybe...

Yesterday, they had a Carlos Torano event at the local B&M; there was a roller putting wrappers on some pre-bundled, disounts and freebies. Folks were buying boxes, but being the frugal guy I am, I only picked up: 2 Exodus 1959 churchill 2 Signature toro 2 1916 Cameroon robusto 1 freshly...

I read it hoping for more notes on the opus :whistling: I like the La Flor 2000 but sounds like the mysterio is kinda hit or miss.

roflmao add that to the book, "101 Things to Do With a Dead Cat" :D :laugh: :D

Two, after that I get confused.

For the pure relaxation and enjoyment of it.
