    The Best Way to Humidify?

    Short and sweet, I've had humidifying problems ever since I got my humi a year and a half ago. I've got the humidor pictured below (once again, thanks Greg!), appx. 120-150 count. I started with the Heartfelt beads, but just couldn't keep that running. I dealt with some mold issues, general...

    Petrus - What do YOU know?

    I will keep this simple and to the point: Who has heard of Petrus? What do you know? What do you think?

    The sweet sounds of Brazil and music

    After an interesting few days (along with an eventful visit from schweiger_schmoke), I delighted myself to one of my CAO Brazilia Cariocas -- a little 4 x 38. It took all of 43 minutes to enjoy this bad boy...43 minutes of bliss. I got the "new" LG Chocolate the other day, and as teenily-chic...

    A cooler smoke means a cooler time?

    As fall is approaching, and temps are beginning to edge downward (although, 90 isn't much better than 97 :r ), I've found that the nights are much cooler: Cincinnati has seen it dip into the mid-high 50s during the last couple nights (when I say night, think 12AM - 6 AM :D ). Not only is it...

    How to Smoke a Cigar - Youtube Style!

    Just browsing around Youtube, and thought this was a pretty neat video. The music and video editing go great together, not to mention all of the p0rn! I think this could make some cool advertisement if it were put together more professionally--not that it needs it though...

    Tatuaje Cabinet...?

    Through my quests in cigar smoking, I've found the Tatuaje brown labels to be, debatably so, my favorite cigar. I'd purchased a 5er of them from a BOTL here a couple months ago, and I treated myself to a toro tonight. But one of the sticks was a "Reserva J21" with the additional gold band. Is...

    New Haul: FIRST BOX!!

    So tonight I made the commit for my first box! It's not off the internet, nor did I get a deal on it. Yeah, sounds crazy, I know. I got it from Jungle Jim's, just north of Cincinnati. I was a little perturbed at the fact that boxes get no discount, simply [Price of Cigar A] x [Quantity of...

    Macanudo 1997 Vintage

    Macanudo 1997 Vintage Cabinet Selection Demi 4 5/16" x 36 Until this, I had never smoked a Macanudo. I got two of these from CBid for $5/piece, and I was distainfully surprised to see it's little size. It compares almost exactly to a Partagas Short, although a little narrower than the Short...

    CAO America

    Is it just me, or does this sound like one sweet smoke? I'd just found out about it on CAO's website the other day, and it sounds delicious. I like the CT wrapper and the diversity of the filler...I just hope it's as strong as they claim it to be. Anybody know when it's due in stores? Oh...

    Bahh! The devil is attacking me!! (Notice: Those under 18, contains cigar pics)

    I've gotten a few 5ers and singles from CBid before, but this is the biggest I've gotten to date. I know I'm quite happy, enjoy!

    RP Connecticut or RP Vintage 1999?

    I've had the 1999 twice, and neither was very memorable. From what I've heard however, the RP Connecticut is supposed to be quite delicious. I've never had one, and only seen them in one B&M. So, how do they compare? Which do you guys prefer? I'd never really thought to try the Connecticut...

    Favorite Growing Region

    While it can be hard to guage with so many combinations in a single cigar, I'm sure we've somewhat narrowed down our favorite tobacco growing regions. Folks?

    Carlos Toraño Casa Toraño

    Toro: 6 1/4 x 50 This was quite delicious, as most Toranos are. It cost me $4.60 or so, and worth every penny. It is a lighter cigar, something I am rarely attracted to. I had the RP Vintage 1999 Connecticut the other day, and was not impressed. This Torano sure showed it up, lemme tell ya...

    Last Night's One-Man Herf (with p0rn!!)

    Last night, while waiting for my roommate to get home from work, I figured what better time than the present to smoke my OpusX? It was a Fuente Fuente - 5 5/8 x 46 - that I've only had since ~May 20 or so. I've been having some problems with the humi, and there was nothing of particular...

    Oliva Special S

    To start off, Oliva is simply one of my favorite brands. It is extremely well-priced, and has a unique flavor that I simply love. And although I'm rather familiar with the G and O lines, I'd yet to have the Special S until last night. Short Torpedo (5 x 52), $6.79, Jungle Jim's Market...

    For anybody in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana area!

    Now I know there are at least a few gorillas here from the tri-state area (even Dayton, Columbus, and perhaps Indy) that have heard of Jungle Jim's (in Fairfield, just off Rt. 4). As a kid I'd always seen their giant walk-in humidor and thought it smelled so good. Last night I took a swing by...

    Tatuaje...brown label?

    Everytime I see Tatuajes, I feel like I see a dozen different names for the line, and none of them are the brown label. Can somebody please tell me the name for the brown-labeled line from Tatuaje? :w

    Humi Control...

    I feel like I'm having some issues with my humidity control. I feel like I'm re-fueling my beads too often, and perhaps more important, I may not have enough beads. I did the measurements, and according to some suggestion site, they seemed correct. I have a 120 ct. humi (appx. 16 x 10 x 8...

    Gosh Darn BEADS!!!!

    How do most of you fine folks use your beads? This might sound like a stupid question, but I'd just like to know how others utilize the humidity-controlling powers of these plastic buggers. I always hear about the tubes...but how the hell do you use one of those? I just put mine in a...
