There's been some discussion on FairTradeTobacco about different cigar glues. Tragacanth, arabic, cellulose, pectin, xanthan, guar, bermacoll ... some even use tapioca. I never realized before this discussion that the makers of pectin often add citric acid. Which leaves a bitter citrus tang. That's what I have been using…
What the longest time your cigars can be in the freezer? I found some ones hidden from a long time ago..
I just got my first shipment of Cigars of the Month which came with a humidor. What should I do to prepare it before placing my cigars into it?? Thank you!!
hi i was woundering if it is bad that i kept aromatic pipe tobbacco in my humidor with my cigars for a couple weeks the pipe tobacco was in an opend zip lock on top of my cigars. i took it out and my cigars smelled like it for a while it has been about three weeks and they dont seem smell as much or at all anymore but the…
How do you guys stay up to date with all the new releases?Twitter? Facebook? Word of mouth?I used to use RRR, but as of late I just check out CCom's R&R section.
So I bought a pack of 5 tins of Cohiba Pequenos and I just like to know how long they can last just sitting in the tin unopened? Should i throw them in the humidor or are they ok just still wrapped?
So who can give me the lowdown? I did a search and all I found was old threads. Basically what are the must haves and must avoids? How do I properly set one up? What are the best brands and models currently? I found an insurance recovery business with a few wine coolers for around $100. Any good links you can recommend?…
I think I might, but I don't know why. What can a wine fridge do for me that my coolidors don't do already? I realize that a constant lower temp can be achieved but is that the only difference and will it make that big of a difference for my smokes? I know plenty of guys love 'em but I just don't know enough about it.
Hey all! I'll be going away for a little more than a month and wondering what my options could be for that long a term and bringing a few sticks with me. (and by 'few' I mean about 15. Maybe 20.) I'll be traveling/touring across the US and I'm assuming my 15-ct herfador would not be right for this...Or if it is, do I just…
So, maybe 2 years ago I bought a cool little ashtray at a flea market. It is a retro glass piece from a local (where we lived in WV) glass factory, Blenko. After using it for a while and abusing it some, a nasty ash "film" covered the bottom and many hard-to-reach areas. Ash got rained on, then baked in by the sun. You can…
