All, After years of wanting a large self-sustained cabinet, I'm happy to report I've purchased a Vigilant humidor. The unit is custom size and includes Vigilant's temperature and humidity controllers. I reached out to Vigilant regarding seasoning the humidor and was a little shocked that they...

All, I have an old Antietam cabinet humidor. Roughly 2' tall. I also have two smaller desktop humidors for my Cuban cigars and mooch cigars. Unfortunately, all are full! I'm in the market for something substantially taller, like 3'-4'. The competitors on the usual websites are either...

All, I got my hands on some Padron 90th Anniversary cigars. I purchased four of them and they came in tubes. For the last week, I have been storing the tubes closed in my humidor. Today, I decided to inspect the contents and was pleasantly surprised. They look like they've aged for quite a...

All, I've had two of these cigars sitting for about 2 years. One was Zona de Este and the other I forget. Both cigars were exceptional. Are these seasonal? I don't see any retailers carrying them. Daniel

Hi all, Please let me know if you have any experience with this? https://www.amazon.com/Whynter-CHC-251S-Stainless-400-Cigar-Humidor/dp/B00KO90H6Y/ref=sr_1_1?s=appliances&ie=UTF8&qid=1492105540&sr=8-1&keywords=Whynter+CHC-251S I understand the general consensus is to get a Aristocrat or other...

http://www.prestigeimportgroup.com/santiago-endtable-humidors.htm In terms of size, it's bigger than what I'm going for and maintains two shelves. If you guys green light the quality I'm going to purchase. I would consider an Aristocrat, but I simply cannot bring myself to spend $800. Let me...

Hi all, My antietam is beginning to get very cramped. Ideally, I'd like to get a fully electronic humidor that regulates temperature / humidity automatically. But they seem to be running $1500, minimum. In the meanwhile, I could sure use some more space. I'm not looking to spend $1k+ on a...

About once a year, I find a small critter meandering about in my humidor. In each instance, it occurred exclusively in the Cuban section of my humidor. That said, I've have yet to find a single cigar in my humidor with those small round holes that beetles create. My room can get pretty hot...

Hello all. I seasoned my antiem by running the inside down with distiller water and letting it sit overnight. This was done some time ago and my humidor holds humidity well. Today, I picked a stick from the bottom of my humidor to smoke. The moment I lit it it burned fast and lacks in flavor...

Hello everyone,   My friend and I are considering purchasing this humidor for our place. I am familiar with CheapHumidors.com and have had no issues with them but wanted to get your take before we take the plunge:    http://www.cheaphumidors.com/p_store-humidors_HUM-1000.html   What do you think? 

So I recently smoked a Tatuaje Gran Cojonu and it's wrapper reminded me of pert sold cigars. Wrappers so oily you could almost feel it on your lips. Of course, I bought a few off cbid. But I wanted to chime in with you guys to see if you had any similar suggestions?

And I must say... dang. They are both excellent cigars. I've avoided the La Privada (even though everyone told me not to do so) until today and honestly, that smoke was worth the $20 price tag. Last night, I smoked a Julius Caesar I got as a gift in a purchase and... dang. It takes a bit to get...

I've gotten back into cigars pretty hard. Smoking a bit more than I'd like, for health reasons. Nonetheless, I've had the opportunity to smoke some sticks that made me very very happy.    I was going to post the photos one by one when I realized how long that could take. I hope you guys aren't...

I admit, I get suckered by novelty. So, upon realizing I lost my Opus X Dupont lighter (what a waste!) I decided I wanted to buy another snazzy piece. I came across these Promethius lighters and they seemed reasonably priced for a Fuente item:  ...

Hello everyone,   Been a while since I posted. Law school and the bar consumed my life. I'm coming into my first year of law practice and, believe it or not, am finding a life again.    I was curious if you guys could help me catch up. I recently walked into a cigar store and thought I was in an...

Recently, most my favorite smoking spots (think Coffee Bean) were shut down because of a new law in a number of Southern California cities. Smoking was no longer permitted within 20 feet of any establishment which sold food or drinks. Restaurants, coffee shops, etc. all banned cigarettes as well...

Hey guys. I hosted a local herf recently and a gentlemen I met was showing me photos of his box purchase. Cohiba Behike... he insisted highly upon the cigars rarity, price, etc. I looked online and he wasn't joking. $400+ a peice. Wow. Anyways, I was curious on your guys' take. Is this just...

Hey guys, I wanted to extend this invitation to everyone on CP: Date: Sunday, March 28 Time: 7:00 p.m. - 10 p.m. Location: The Belmont Description of event: I've invited a number of family and friends to join me. If you are interest, please let me know and give me a party count. Here is...

I made a purchase with Chun (rawrr) recently. One of the cigars came in damaged. These things of course happen so I messaged him about it expecting to return that cigar for another. Instead, he bombs the crap out of my mailbox with some choice smokes. With that said, first newbie to respond...

Because he just sent me ONE HELL of a bomb. First person to guess what instrument I play and from what age gets a bomb of their own. Hint: I started after I was 5 and am currently 25. Dan Please note: I'm in finals mode so it may take a while to get it out.
