Hey guys, I'm Advil from Des Moines Iowa and I just got introduced to this hobby in the past year. I just bought my very first humidor. It's nothing like the ones I've seen in many pics around here, but I think it's a nice little starter for a 19 year old college kid.

It's a Savoy 75 cunt made of bubinga wood.

They didnt have any glass top ones at my local and I didnt want to order so I got this one. I think the wood is just gorgeous!

And here it is open, don't laugh at me now, I only have 4 cigars right now and I cant keep them in the humidor because the humidity will be way off from what I hear. So I have them in a tupperdor with a water pillow until I can afford some sticks (I blew a hundred bucks on the humidor and 20 for the digital hygro)

When I bought the box, we just happened to have Opus X and Padron 1926's in and I had to get them so they could be my first real sticks. And my local overprices this stuff because they're the only shop in many many miles.

So even though I can't use it yet, I'm very excited to start this collection! The humidor is seasoning right now for a few more days.

Thanks for looking, I like flaunting my little baby. And this is a big buy for a college kid!
 
What B&M did you buy them from? I just moved from Des Moines 3 years ago. Nice to see you here, and nice humi.
 
Good job.I started smoking a few years ago and bought my first humi(glass top) at the cp store.I now have about 90 cigars in there.I only smoke 1 or 2 a week so it's easy for me to age them.This is a great forum and the members have a wealth of information.
 
Nice humidor. I've yet to buy one, maybe holding out for a Daniel Marshall or something but I've built a couple, travel pelican case and coolidor. Get ready to make more space!

Advil....

20 year old college kid from IL. Go to Illinois State University..and get ready..that small 75ct wont hold up your stash. I've got a 48qt cooler almost full, a tupperware container that can hold 50 or so almost filled, a 25ct humidor, a 75 ct. Savoy humi - much like yours but glass top and finally a 16qt cooler. Get ready my friend....and say goodbye to your paychecks :laugh:

I used to go there all the time, David is a pretty nice guy. I used to go to the Herfs' he put on at the top of 801 Grand.

Nice shop, but being in a mall he does tend to be a little pricey. There are other shops in the Des Moines area that are cheaper and have actual lounges that you can sit and enjoy a cigar while you're there. I get down to Johnston to visit friends several times a year.

Hmm, this thread has definitely taken a naughty turn. Nice humi, btw.


So, um, what are you using to season this baby? Massengill Extra Mild Vinegar & Water or Country Flowers flavor? :whistling:

It's always nice to have a desktop or two around, but beware...it's all downhill from here. ;)

At 75, I hardly think it needs seasoned, tightened maybe, but not seasoned. :whistling:
