If you have even an inkling about your staff, and you do work that is sensitive in nature especially in defense, I don't see any alternative but to terminate the relationship. What's a couple of smokes if you have sensitive information elsewhere in your place?

Anybody know how the flavor compares? If I missed it on an earlier post I apologize.

Saw the Guatemalan version at my grocer this evening, but it was $34. Might look at some other places.

They seem a little pricy, but it's where we got our stuff for the humidor at the wine store that I used to work at. Jennifer is great and those dogs are adorable! Nice place. If there are people that go there, we should organize an intown herf sometime.

Well, you're right Peter, it wouldn't matter on their rehumidification. But I also wouldn't waste time and effort trying to revive fakes that may never have been worth much in the flavor department anyways.

Also, how sure are you on their provenance and authenticity?

I do. Essentially (save a few partial boxes) my entire stock of CCs is in a desktop with 60 beads. Works perfectly and sits around 61 all the time.

I know a guy who did it with a Partagas Lusitania :r Please don't do this, even though some people do cough*Andrew*cough.

That guy knows stuff. Or cement. It's been done. I think it's on vitolas.net somewhere.

I freeze and use a vinotemp. Freezing your smokes may be your best first step. That way you won't have to worry as much about higher temps.

Another idea is to lay a wet rag over the top of the outside of the cooler. The evaporation should lower the temperature a couple degrees. Although there may not be much evaporation going on with 75% humidity.

9qts? If it is fairly airtight (I assume it is since you are using it as a humi), then just put it in the fridge. That won't take up much more space than a twelve pack of beer right?

I thought you might be starting a CS refrigerator magnet thread. That would be awesome! Since you aren't, you should be able to find more than you would need at a hardware store or pretty much any big box store.

Only thing that could make that better would be some fresh, real mozzarella.

Story of my life.
