I saw a few different cigars at the local B&M and they had rings on them that said 7-7-7 or 8-6-8. What does this mean? I wasn't sure if it was referring to a change in the type of tobacco in the thirds of the cigar or if it was just to be an eye grabber to make the stick stand out. I know I should looked closer at the…
So I have had a Gurkha Double Perfecto sitting in my humi for about 6 months(70-72RH). I put in in my mouth and wet it a little before I toasted the foot (no i did not wet the foot) I toasted it and put it back in my mouth to light it and rested it on my teeth. I felt the wrapper..... crunch in my teeth. I didn't think…
My house was built in the late 1800s and is a field stone foundation. It doesn't get water EVER. and is pretty cool (66-68 deg. tops). My only concern is the 100 year old smell. Not funky...just old smelling. I want to put my 4 humidors down there on a shelf. I was thinking Cooler but they may not fit (and with my wife…
I'm having trouble choosing between Corona, Toro, etc simply because I really don't know the differences and benefits for different sizes. After reading around, it seems that the vibe is not only personal preference, but also the aging process. What do you guys do to gauge your favorite size? Any other benefits? Thanks,
I'm a Torano fan, but these two I have yet to actually see. I may be going to Portland this weekend and may pick up one of each, but I'd like to hear if any of you have tried either one and what you thought. Thanks.
I have a xikar and I am wondering for my new cabinet what easy to use and dang good hygrometers there are out there. Even that Xikar caused me a little trouble calibrating. Any stick out to you?
Hello! I'm very new to serial cigar smoking (hadn't smoked one in twenty years, and only then maybe once a year) so I'm trying to figure out my general likes and dislikes. I ordered the "Choice Cuts 54-Ring" sampler from CI and the 10-cigar sampler/humidor deal from Cigar.com. So far, there are my general impressions of…
I keep my cigars in a 60 stick humidor and am having trouble with consistent flavor. I can have an amazing smoke, and then a few days later, it tastes horrible, all the flavor that was there is gone and bitter. Could this be a humidity related problem? I want every one to be amazing but am frustrated in wasting cigars that…
Anyone know how they are measured? Wide side, narrow side, diagonal? Just curious.
This is what I have I thought I had it calibrated earlier and the instructions ended up thrown away.. I've since tried to recalibrate it with no success.. I have the 75% calibration kit from boveda.. I've taken the battery out to reset it and put it in for 24 hours, it will stay at 69%, I've tried hitting the set button,…
