    Half Smoked Cigar Back in Humidor

    Last week, I had not finished the cigar I was smoking. My wife as charming as she is, decided that where I left it was not a good spot and with good intent, placed it back into my humidor. It was in there for less than a day and my humidor still smells of this cigar. It was not flavored, just a...

    Going on "Atkins" Help with Carbfree Recipes

    Seeking a more holistic approach to an auto immune disease, I was forced to start a reduction diet which removed glutens, sugars and dairy from my diet. By definition, I was overweight but I lost 20 lbs in about a month. The 1st 10-13lbs was in the 1st week to 10 days but it was certainly...

    Rockwell Cigar Holder

    Never thought of that. Thanks for the suggestion. I assume I should leave the top off correct?

    Rockwell Cigar Holder

    Just curious to know if any seasoning is required for this 3 finger cigar holder being that it has cedar on the inside? If yes, how would you season it being its such a small area?

    What do you do with a new box of cigars?

    Thanks for the feedback. I have not experimented with the cello off with the exception of a few singled I've received that didn't have it. I did however, have a flavored cigar (unbeknownst to me at the time) that was not in the cello and the flavor was noticed in a few other cigars. Thankfully...

    What do you do with a new box of cigars?

    In the past, I've just briefly looked at them and threw them in the humidor for a few days before smoking them, especially in the summer months. In my mind, it would allow them to get better acclimated to my desired RH. My only concern with inspections is my lack of knowledge and what really to...

    What do you do with a new box of cigars?

    I've been more of a lurker lately then a poster trying to learn more about cigars, storage and everything related. I'm still quite wet behind the ears but enjoy becoming more educated about cigars. I've learned it's quite a conversational piece.   What is your routine when you receive a new box...

    Reputable B&M Close to Duck, NC

    Taking the family on a trip to the Outer Banks, North Carolina this weekend and it looks like I will not have time to stop at the local B&M before I head out. We are likely staying somewhere near Chesepeake so I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction as to where I can find a...

    bought a new humidor but humidity dropped when placed cigars in there

    All I can add to this is that patience is a virtue...lots of patience. I went through the exact same thing and rushed the process. I only used distilled as I had a few bucks invested in cigarsd already. I almost lost my inventory of about 50 cigars b/c I tried to get my sticks into a humidor as...

    September 11, 2001 - Never Forget, Always remembered!

    I really wouldn't think of it as something to be concerned about. I personally have not been to the memorial. I missed my opportunity to go as I was out of town. I haven't been able to set aside time to go there since. As set in stone showed in his photo, the site looks beautiful. If a picture...

    September 11, 2001 - Never Forget, Always remembered!

    I'm suprised something like this isn't already in place being that it is a revenue generator and there has been nothing but battles over who is going to get the money from the visitors, NY or NJ. One of the big reasons the museum has not been opened yet. It's a disgrace and certainly for another...

    September 11, 2001 - Never Forget, Always remembered!

    Some nice stories here. Thank you for sharing. I remember many people stating that this will be a day where you remember exactly where you were when this all took place. I was still in college and I was in the shower when the first plane hit. I remember getting out shortly after and my mother...

    New Addition

    So the softer side of me has come out and I would normally not share news in a community as I'm sure many of you have your own lives going on and things to be concerned with. In fact, this is not a concern in the least but a chipper post. Plus, I'm not the public feelings spewer type that you...

    Guide: How to salt test / calibrate your hygrometer

    I would recommend you try either getting new batteries to rule that out or get use a jar instead of a bag. If you think it's the Humidipak, try using the table salt with distilled water in a soda cap.
