I was gifted a "cuban" cigar unbanded. The cigar is suppose to be a private reserve or house brand, something like that. The cigar was well constructed, triple cap, very light wrapper. The ash was pure white and it didn't taste like a cuban cigar to me, but the cigar overall wasn't bad. I don't...

Always thought this would work, but this was the first I'm reading of someone actually successfullly trying it.

I think BCGs are very good smokes.

I'm surprised if you put it into a ziplock bag, that it left an odor in your dor after a day. Next ime though, if a half smoke cigar is still worth saving for you, I would recommend just putting it into a zip lock bag for a day, doesn't need to go back into a dor. For your dor, you could try...

Several boxes, no additional number.

Why SALINE solution? I've always wipped down with distilled water. Although some swear that it will raise the grain.

It's funny how different cigars may need different humidities. I keep my aristocrat at ~65-67%RH. My cigars feel and smoke fine. I pulled out a Perdomo The Cigar last night that has to be sitting in there for at least 4-5 years. The wrapper was very dry and crackley (word? sp?). Overall the...

Not for me, but I know some who swear that they turned dog rockets into very good smokes. I say if you like it, go for it.

I have a "little" end table that I purchased from Bob about 6-7 years ago, I'm sure you'll be very happy.

Actually looks perhaps there is slight mold throughout. Could be the the pictures, could be wrong. If and I mean if it was mold, very slight and would just wipe them off.

You gave him some cigars and he was irritated? Wow! Perhaps you need a new neighbor. :laugh: Since I've been "seriously" smoking cigars over 10 years, I've been gifted cigars several times. Some of them good, some of them not (even fakes). I always graciously accept them, regardless, since...

Very nice! How long before you filler up? :laugh:

Not worth it IMO. It's amazing some of the items they try to sell.

I always prefer to keep them in their box, especially if it's like a cab (wooden). Although, I never tried to compare long term one vs another.

I got a box recently of Bolivar Inmensas - Sad to see these go.

Okay, I'm a freakin idiot!!! After over a week going back and forth with the vendor, he will not credit my credit card, instead store credit only, so I will have to dispute this with my credit card company, since I will never purchase another thing from him. This is after I sent the cigars...

Less than I want, more than I should. Seriously, in the warmer months probably 7-10/week. In the colder months, 1/week or so. IMHO, 3-5/day is a large number. Also IMHO, although I think in moderation cigar smoking is beneficial since it relaxes me, I honestly do believe there is a health risk...

I'm probably missing something, but a difference of 4% between two hygometers located in different locations is not a big difference to me. Say if each is only off by 1-2%, that would explain the difference. Also, especially without a fan, there will be some variation throughout the cabinet.

The cigars were shipped to me sealed by my request, so no vendor inspection. The vendor has always done right by me (used them for 3-4 years), although I never had to send anything back nor any complaints (which is a good thing). The vendor is claiming that its plume even AFTER I sent photos...
