About a week ago, almost every cigar I smoked tasted crappy for the first inch or so, then the flavor I expected finally started coming thru, but in a muted fashion. Then a few days ago this phenomena lasted for 1/2 the cigar. Yesterday I smoked a La Aurora and an EPC and both tasted ashy/almost nasty for the whole smoke -…
I've got a couple cigar boxes aging three dozen home rolled which I'll probably just ditch cause they're such worthless stinkers. I've been mailing packages right and left to family and BOTLs. Mailed two just last week. Even so, regardless how I try, good smokable sticks which I have every intention of firing ASAP seem to…
Ok, here is the story. Streater sent me a bomb. In it, an Alec Bradley Black Market Churchill. I had a robusto that I was saving until I could get another, so tonight I fire up the Robusto. (NOT the one I received today from Streater. Just to make that clear.) A little into the cigar, I kept feeling like there was a stem…
I've been gifted several AJ Fresh Rolled Habano coronas. Each has been absolute aces. Loads of flavor and no bite. If I buy a bundle of these, do I need to age them to make the new supply as good as the old? If so, how long? I'd like to score a bundle and give them away. Should I salt them away first before mailing?
I noticed some of my beads turning black inside my small humidor. I removed the beads and have placed my cigars in tupperware. None of the cigars show signs of mold. I am currently seasoning a new humidor and am worried about putting cigars that might be contaminated in the new box and having the same issue. Does anyone…
Some of the cigars (closest to the humidifier) have become darker, even black, when veiwing the innards (filler) from the foot. This is only on the inside of these select sticks and discoloration is limited. They were not previously like this. I'm hoping this isn't a mold issue, but I expect them to be bitter from…
Im chewing on a 5 Vegas Miami Knuckle and I can see VERY green filler tobacco in there. I cant get a good shot with my phone but is that normal. I will dissect if it gets weird. Lots of big a$s stems too.The green seems to be close to the stems. Its burning OK so I want to try to get thru it. If it goes south there will be…
I am getting my new humidor in the mail today, I would like some tips on seasoning it properly, I have read alot on the Internet, but I trust the forum members, a little more than some jerk off on the Internet, also can I salt test my digital caliber 3 hygrometer?
hey i have a spare closet was thinking about making in to a humidor, Any one done this before or have any suggestions
OK just a thought here.... Since I read that the cellophane wrapper lets humidity through, would it be possible to use the cellophane wrapper and fill it with beads as a simple way to put beads in a humidor? Or for travel? Anyone ever try this ? Might it work ok ?
