10 days? As suggested above, stick them in a couple of baggies. Don't worry about temp, don't worry about humidity. You folks suggesting round storage containers plainly never packed on a motorcycle. I just returned from a 4 day cycle vacation (or rather vacation that I cycled to). I packed...

"I've hear that the sting is indicative of the amount of ammonia present in the leaf." I've heard that pretty any kind of smoke in your nostrils can sting, because it's smoke in your nostrils. A lot to do with amount and density of smoke. Ever had your eyes water working on a campfire? At...

I think cigar smoking would affect any diabetic in the same way. If you check with your doctor, he/she will recommend you cease smoking. I have noticed no effect from cigars vis a vis my diabetes.

Maduro wrappers often have a natural sweetness. That's all I notice with the RPs

Ordered a humidor and hadn't received it in 7 days? That's a crime man. I don't want to bear more bad news, but I hope you paid for air freight, since ground shipping can take 7-10 days, once the item is shipped. Maybe you shouldn't have started bitching about it immediately after you ordered...

I'm sorry, I thought I wrote that with so many cigars of diffrernt brands writing the names would be a chore. Oh, I did. Yes, writing the names would be a chore, but since reading and writing about cigars made me hungry, I just smoked a Mocambo Wilde Havana. I thought the topic of this post...

Well, not today, but yesterday I smoked 2 Churchills, a torpedo, 2 coronas, 2 short panetelas, 2 panetelas, a Lonsdale, a robusto, a perfecto and a couple of minis. They were all different (excpet the Placeres short panetelas) so writing the names is a chore. It's only lunchtime today so I've...

Never ever look at MSRP to figure out what you should pay, unless as a percentage of that price. Even the most expensive online and catalog sellers do not charge SRP.

I would give them your product on consignment. That way, when they give them back to you after a 6 months of not trying to sell them, paying no attention to them, and letting them go to ruin, they won't have any hard feelings. I think the usual set-up for something like this is "You pay only...

For many years, my Kaywoodie full bent was part of the local police department's anti-drug display board. When they confiscated it ( as well as some genuine contraband), I assured them that it had never been used for anything other than tobacco to no avail. I recall saying something to the...

For those of us who are not VA residents, we shouold write to the governor and the sponsors of the bills advising that we will not visit VA nor spend our money there as long as any smoking bans are in effect. As for who to contact, the US Senators and Congressmen from VA have nothing to do with...

I have never used a wine club. My feelings would be generally those expressed above. BUT: I do have a friend (a couple actually) who joined some club out of CA last year. They have been very satisfied and are now on like a 'month to month' membership. they can cancel anytime - they haven't.

Although I had never seen their web-site and their offer to personalize a label for me, I believe I have actually heard/read of this Port before and that the things I heard were nothing but very good. "the only port producers in the world which still use a three grape blend" I am not quite sure...

" I think you need to shop better." As I mentioned in my post, $50 is the price paid by the person who bought this for me as a gift. You're the second person who commented on my intro. How much info do you guys need to talk to a someone about cigars and booze? I haven't read your intro (or...

I doubt anyone here is smoking Phillies Blunts, but Philadelphia just banned the sale of all flavored "blunt" style cigars. Cigars are still legal in the US. Pennsylvania is TTBOMK the second leading producer of cigars in the nation. The sale of legal cigars is now prohibited in...

"dry air in the environment you have you humi in?" Since the humidor is a sealed environment with a different relative humidity than that of the ambient air surrounding it, what difference would this make? If it does make a difference, just what is the humidor doing? Certainly the humidity in...

First let me ask if you are having any problems with your cigars now? If not, keep on doing what you are doing, because it apparently works. We're talking about a tin of cigarillos here, right? Keep the tin and part of a moistened papertowel in a ziplock bag. Just a part of the towel, a...

"Here in Canada, you can't buy sheeit for $7" This must be a real problem. How much do you spend on average for a cigar?

"Family outfits, Padron, Fuente, Rocky Patel ..." I don't know if I would categorize Patel as a traditional 'family outfit'. My understanding is that Rocky Patel is/was a lawyer who made bundles of cash practicing entertainment law in Hollywood. He became interested in cigars during the...

"goes for about $33.00 a bottle" Maybe in your neighborhood or on the 'net. The buyer/giver of this gift griped when I had to admit I didn't care for it "What? I paid $50 for that bottle". I have subsequently seen it for 49.95. Just because a wine is available at a certain price does not...
