Tonight I got the chance to try an early release of the new Cruzado line. This is the followup line from the Illusione camp. I had the corona gorda vitola which is called Domenicos. I was presented with a pretty dark, rich looking wrapper which I believe is a rosado. It had some very...

I need to take some humidity out of my beads which are currently at 71% after I added some boxes to it a couple of weeks ago. My beads are 65 % beads and I have 2 lbs. My hygro's are calibrated and one is open air and one is inside a box. Both read 71%. My question is what is the best way to...

Now that my Blacks have had a chance to rest after their travel I figured it was time to spark one up. I got two jars and a fiver from Feb. 2008, so I decided to fire up one the the sticks from the fiver. This is the third Tat Black I have smoked and 2 of the 3 have been great smokes (albeit a...

I would like one for my travel humi.

Ok, so now that I have a jar of Tatuaje Blacks, I need to know if I should take them out of the foil or leave them in? Thanks in advance for the advice.

Just got my travel humi in from Cigar Solutions and spiced it up a bit with some spare bands I had laying around. I love this thing already. Here's a quick pic:

Just wanted to be the first person in this thread to say this...seems like someone is always beating me to it...in every thread...

What is the best way to freeze singles? Can I leave them in the five finger baggies and put them in the refrigerator then freezer, or should I put them in something different?

What is special about the MK versus all the other Illusiones? I noticed it has gold on the band...is this a limited release or something?

I was gifted this stick from a regular at my local B&M. It came from the Pepin Lancero Sampler that was limited to 1000 produced. This cigar was a great smoke that lasted around 1 hour. While I'm not great at picking out flavors, I did taste a woodsy flavor maybe even mesquite. Anyways it...

Ok I've been reading the discussion going on regarding aging cubans and that made me start wondering about my NC stash. I'm interested to hear who if anyone is a vintage NC type. I'm really looking to hear from someone who smokes NC's with 3-5 years on them regularly. What types of cigars are...

When I got my vino all set up it was holding 65% with my beads. Then I brought home 6-7 boxes from my locker at my B&M. The humidity of these cigars in the boxes was around 70%. Since adding them, my vino has been holding steady at around 68-69%. A couple of boxes are reading 71% inside. What is...

I'm looking for input on where I should place my oust fans in my vino. I have three shelves fairly evenly spaced top to bottom. Should I put one fan on each shelf? How about front or back of the vino on each shelf? Any input would be appreciated!

Being the geek that I am, I've started looking into remote monitoring of my humidor. I work with a guy who has a weather station set up at home that he can monitor from work. He also has it set up to monitor his cube at work. Then anyone can hit his website and see the results. I thought this...

I made this real quick last night and liked how it looked, figured I'd share it if anyone else wanted a Tatuaje background for their phone. Nothing fancy, but clean and functional.

OK all you wine coolador owners, I just joined your ranks and need some advice. What are some must haves I need to get this set up. I'm ordering 2lbs of beads and will try to hunt down some oust fans, what other things do I need to know or do. And how do I remove the decal?

Illusione f9 Size: 44 x 6.25 Lonsdale I was given this cigar to try from a BOTL at my local B&M. He, like me, is loving the new Illusione's and told me I had to try this vitola. I thoroughly enjoyed this smoke and thought it delivered a better balance of the flavors that Illusione offers...

I got a chance to smoke this great cigar last week and just had to spread the word. I know Illusione already is becoming well known on these boards as well as others, but I wanted to throw in my two cents. I am a huge fan of the Tatuaje Havana VI Angeles, and always hold other cigars up to...

Famous Nicaraguan 3000 Torpedo "Original Release" Size: 5.5 x 54 Tobacco: Nicaragua Wrapper, Binder, and Filler I've loved the Famous Nic 3000 since I started smoking cigars (albeit that wasn't too long ago.) Having enjoyed the current release so much I decided to hunt down a few of the...

Anyone dealt with this company? Here's what I'm thinking of getting: http://tampahumidor.com/sd4/product/lexington-cabinet-2311.cfm Any thoughts?
