Wife wasn't hungry tonight, so I was forced to fend for myself. Fortunately, the local steakhouse was able to accommodate my poor soul.

Returning from a TopSecret Mission (working at my office around the corner), as I approached my Secret Lair (humble suburban home) I noticed it on the veranda (porch). From the packaging, I could tell it was delivered by the Feds, who no doubt placed it Gingerly near the door, then Ran Like...

Howdy All, I want to get a smoker, but have no experience with them. Do you have a favorite? Recommendations? Electric, charcoal... etc.? Kinda want to keep it around $200 if possible, doesn't need to be huge, just for me and my family of four (five if you count the daughter's useless...

Recently received a Corona Cigars catalog with an order. Wow, I thought I was playing the game pretty high with the stuff I've been ordering. But there's a whole world of cigars I hadn't really been aware of. I mean, I know a little about the history and all (and they now own Camacho, which...

I guess these are finally shipping. Looks nice. My 150 works well, assuming this one will, too. Seems like they kinda cheaped out on the number of shelves, but I'm hoping the extra drawers may come back on the market soon. The good news is... now I have room for more smokes!

So the topic came up on a recent herf, of how In The Old Days steakhouses used to have a room specifically for smoking cigars. The deal was, after a group dinner, the Men would retire to the smoking lounge, and the staff would somehow manage to get rid of the Girls (I think they took them to...

Honestly, I can't seem to do anything right any more.... I guess it doesn't much matter in terms of smoking the thing, but it's driving me nuts...

Sorry, guys, I know this is old hat for most of you. But I would be grateful for a wee bit of your wisdom here. I want to put a small humidor in my Office Office (not home). The building is not heated or cooled (much) on weekends, and the HVAC goes off at night at some point and on various...

Actually, it was just a slightly cloudy afternoon. From his Secret Lair (basement mancave), via cameras not-very-discretely placed on the outside of the house, the Old Man could see children playing in the street. A dog barked. Birds chirped. A truck slowly ambled down the hill, and parked...

Or anyone else for that matter.... So, my teenage daughter just got back from Turks & Caicos tonight, her best girlfriend's family has a "house" there (more like a mansion, jeez). She brought this back for me as a gift. Whaddaya reckon are the odds it's real?

So I've been rotating cigars out of the humidor(s) into a ziploc with a Boveda 62 on a rolling basis, to leave for a couple of days before smoking. Today's plan was a LFD Double Ligero Chiselita. Pulled it out and found this - I didn't notice this when I put it in the "dry bag", but I...

Hi Folks, Anyone have any knowledge of these things? Like this one - https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JAP7388/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Do they work? Trying to figure out how to reduce the objections of SWMBO and The Rugrats.... jn

Howdy, This humidor was in a box of old cigar boxes I picked up for a couple of bucks. It's a little banged up but does "ok" on the dollar bill test. I was thinking I'd give it a light sanding on the outside (appears to be cherry), then some Tru-Oil (I use it in gun restorations, it's great...

I've been thinking some cigars I have received (from a well-known site) were overyly dry. So I ordered a CigarMedics Humidimeter (from a different site). Pack of A.Flores Serie Privada SP54's arrived today. Box was on the porch for an hour or so, it's raining outside here, very humid...

Howdy All, I've had a lifelong relationship with humidity issues, mainly due to a lifelong sickness of acquiring good acoustic musical instruments that require care. Generally, this has been much easier than the level of care apparently needed for cigars (just keep the room about 45% RH...

I've been reading the reviews here, and to quote Garth, I'm not worthy! I've just been smoking cigars for about a year and have been trying to understand all the differences. Up until tonight my favorite has been A Fuente Hemingway Signature, but I recently placed an order that included some...
