    Putting up my first box - Padron or Patel?

    Padron 100% Seems like Rocky Patel releases a new line every week. "Oh, it's Monday, Rocky Patel released the Old World Blue Edge Royal Vintage Connecticut Indian Maduro and twitter got a new rapper."

    Padron Family Reserve 85 Maduro

    I cant find these anywhere. Any good place to get them from? I'd love a 5 pack. If it's anything like the 1926 or 1964, I'll be stoked. Never smoked a bad Padron, which is amazing.

    Xikar Drymistat Sticks. How many? Where to place?

    I'm very impressed with how well these packets work. I use 3 in my 75ct and 2 in my 30ct. The RH in my 75 is a solid 70%, where I keep my NC's and 68% in my 30 where I keep my Cubans. I don't mind buying these packs. The peace of mind is worth it alone.

    What are your Top 5+ Habanos?

    I really didn't have a good experience with the box of 4's that I purchased, so I can't compare. The 2's are a good smoke. If you like Cuban tobacco, it's a solid bet.

    Xikar Drymistat Sticks. How many? Where to place?

    Thanks for all your help, guys. I ordered a 12 pack of Boveda 72's See how I like 2 way systems. If they work, I'm sticking with them. Humidity fluctuates too much with the Drymistat.

    Romeo y Julieta Mille Fleurs

    I actually just sold my last box of these. I don't like Cuban cigars as much as I once did.

    Xikar Drymistat Sticks. How many? Where to place?

    Can I ask if you guys like beads or Boveda better? I want a true 2 way system.

    This may be weird. I'm having a tough time drawing from RP 60 ring

    The only smoke he makes that I enjoy is the Edge. The 60 rings went back.

    Xikar Drymistat Sticks. How many? Where to place?

    Thanks buddy. I'm just getting too many conflicting testimonials. I know I'm over thinking this whole process - Xikar claims that these sticks are a 2-way system. Then I read that they just emit moisture, not absorb. I've read many positive reviews on the Heartfelt Beads - I'm not sure on...

    Xikar Drymistat Sticks. How many? Where to place?

    Should I go with a 2 way system such as Boveda? I reseasoned my humidor and have 3 sticks in there now. The humidity is holding steady at 70%. Will these adequately humidify my smokes?

    Xikar Drymistat Sticks. How many? Where to place?

    Sorry, another question. Since I'm using 4 DryMistat sticks, do you think the humidity should go up? It's only a 75 cap humidor with about 65 sticks in it. One stick is supposed to humidify 25-50 cigars.

    This may be weird. I'm having a tough time drawing from RP 60 ring

    Not at all. Almost like they are rolled too tight or incorrectly.

    This may be weird. I'm having a tough time drawing from RP 60 ring

    The draw isn't really too firm. I keep my cigars at 65% RH in a well seasoned humidor. I'm sure you know, but I keep the cello on all of my smokes. (and take it off prior to lighting, lol) They didn't crackle, pop or anything... Bought them a week prior from my B&M. I'd get a bunch of air...

    I actually did that on both. Excellent tip though, thanks for sharing.

    Hygrometer Calibration FAIL.

    No, I didn't get them right last night. So I used a Tupperware container, and recalibrated. Got my 71% reading back. Thanks again man!

    World Series 2011

    2011 was one for the ages. My favorite was still the last day of the regular season. Game 6 was amazing. I thought it was over for the Cards. But they persevered and won. Still think the 2001 series was far more exciting. And having cash invested in a team doesn't mean they lack heart...
