    What's Your Latest Purchase

    Picked up a 5er of the San Cristobal Elegancia, since the two I got last week were quite good. A bit milder, but the spice remains. Chemyst :cool:

    What is your favorite combo?

    It's apple cider time with a nice maduro smoke. Soon it'll be hard cider time with a nice maduro. My regulars are Dr. Pepper or iced tea. My regular rotation is currently San Cristobal, La Riqueza, Pepin Serie JJ maddie and Padilla '32. So either dark natural wrapper or maddie. Chemyst :cool:

    Picked up a Tat 7th, Fausto and an Avion at a Tat event today. The Monsters were all gone by the time I got there. I wonder if there was a limit on them. Added 2 San Cristobal Elegancias to round out a fiver. Chemyst :cool:

    Fires Burn Fuente Warehouses

    I hope they have more than 2 warehouses. Glad no one was injured. Fuente stuff are my 'go to' smokes, Hemi maddies and Ashton San Cristobal, especially. We'll have to wait to see the impact of this disaster. Chemyst :cool:

    As a newb you should try EVERYTHING you can get your hands on. Keep notes or remember those that you like. It's not rocket science. Everybody has different taste/favorites. For a complete newb stay with mild and medium smokes for a while. Ask at your local cigar store for suggestions, or try...

    Hard cigars, too much or too little humidity?

    My LA Cien Anos robustos are very 'hard' smokes. It's not just the box that I have, but also some singles that I had b4 I got the box. Perhaps they have pectin between the wrapper, binder and filler. The LA Cien Anos torps I have are not as hard, but still very firm. Both vitolas burn well...

    Sealing Glass Humidor

    Use an alcohol based bathtub sealer, readily available from HD or Lowes. I used GE Silicon II, I think. But read the ingredients to make sure you get the alcohol based one. Many bathtub caulks are acid based and smell like vinegar. Don't use them.. Let the caulk cure for a week, and you're...
