I walk in the door with the rest of my family after a week of visiting and celebtrating Thanksgiving back home on Cape Cod, and there sitting on the dining room table (we had a house sitter to take care of pets/mail/deliveries ect...) was a box from DHL. Now in the past year, the ONLY packages adressed to me coming through DHL have been from Cigarbid. and then it dawned on me .....oh yeah!!!! I forgot all about that auction....... I rip open the package, and like a kid that just got what he wanted on Christmas, a big 'ol grin spread across my face. Box of Gran Habano Corojo #5.....effin YUM!

Always nice to come home to a surprise like that, especially after the traffic hell on the ride back to Maryland tonight.
 
Me too! Had one today as a matter of fact. A really good $3 smoke IMO
 
I bought a single a while back, and smoked it a couple weeks ago. I had high hopes for it, but it smoked like it was wet. Burned real raggedy, and put out very little smoke.

What do you guys smoke these at? I keep mine around 65% with Viper's beads, and it sat for at least a month. Did I get a bum stick, or do you guys really keep these dry?
 
I enjoy the #5's. I've had a handful of these. One of them I tossed before the halfway point. It was one that had been in my humidor for about 6 months. The rest of them I smoked relatively soon after I bought them. Maybe they're better young. I think I may have one buried in the coolidor, I'll have to try it out if it's in there.

I see that you're in Edgewood. I live in Fallston. I haven't had one, but if you need help "disposing" of a few, let me know. :D
 
My humi is at about 63% right now but varies from that to 68% in the summer

I keep my coolerdors around 60% to 65%.
 
I'm a big fan of these also, they just came out with a new limited 6 X 60. It is one of the oiliest sticks i've ever seen. I sold out my initial order of 5 boxes in one day. The best part about it was it retails at about $5 bucks a stick.

I enjoyed the Robusto I tried. I've heard the Torp is amazing. They are so reasonably priced, too. ;)
