I currently have cigars in a humidor. I am moving from Greece to Mexico City and need to know the best way to pack my cigars/humidor for shipping to Mexico. These items will be shipped with all my household effects. Should I take the cigars out of the humidor and pack a different way or just pack the humidor with cigars in…
I've been getting my coolidor set up over the past few days. The hygrometer has been at 72 for a couple days now, with three empty cigar boxes also being seasoned. I know that's a little high, but I expect it to come down when I add cigars to it. My question is in regards to cedar trays. I ordered three the other day…
So my big burning question I have as a newbie to cigars is are Drew Estate cigars considered like newbie cigars or something. For some reason the flavoring just seems to me like a lot of people will critisize u for flavored cigars. Idk it just might be because i hang around old schools alot haha P.S. I actually like Drew…
Hey all! So this is part question/part complaint about how many cigars a site says their humidor can hold...ha! I've seen a few humidors with the SAME dimensions say they can hold different amounts. In this case, lets take the ratio of 15Wx10Dx6.5 H. I've, so far, seen places say this "size" can hold 100, 120 and 130…
Over at What Embargo, my podcast on all things ISOM, our first episode revolved around spotting fake Cuban cigars. In our discussion forum, we had some folks suggest written articles so people did not need to go back and watch the whole episode on YouTube, so I decided to write up this recap of the show to give folks a…

Recently one of our BOTL's mentioned getting an ass kicking from a strong cigar even after a wonderful meal. However, his meal was heavy on…
This may be somewhat of a rambling post, I apologize in advance.What do you guys do when you draw on your cigar and only 1/2 or 3/4 of the foot turns red? I feel compelled to take another draw to even it out and keep the burn straight, but I think I might be heating it up too much sometimes. I'm fairly certain that I worry…
Question! If I were to get a tin of cigarillos, should I put them in my humidor? And with or without the tin? Never bout any but I think I'm going to soon...any advice is appreciated as always!
New guy here so please forgive me if this question has been "Done to Death". Alright, I'm a budget smoker and I'm considering purchasing cigars in bundle. I smoke maybe 1-2 cigars a day and I'm planning to smoke less frequently. What are some good budget-conscious options for long term storage? Thanks
Okay, this is going to sound so stupid, but I just got one of these lighters as part of a really great (4 lighters for $20 lighter deal) from a Site That Cannot Be Named Here. It looks like this: Here's the question: On the bottom there's a flathead screw to turn the flame level up or down. But there's no "hole" to stick a…
