    Oliva Master Blends III robusto

    My first review with pics!! :chk Well a few days ago I decided I really need a smoke. So, despite the fact that it was kind of cool (45*F) I lit up an MBIII. Pre-light: certainly a well built smoke. The wrapper was a bit toothy and very oily. I clipped the tip with my palio and took a...

    Hydra fan question

    Late last week I bought a Hydra with a fan kit and two fans from Ron at Cigar Solutions for my 300 count desktop humi. Formerly I had about 6 oz. of 65% beads in there and I just wanted the humidity to be a little more even throughout the humi and I wanted it to be a little higher. So, I got...

    Humi-Care vs Hydra

    I spotted this item in the CI catalogue that came to my house today: http://www.cigarsinternational.com/prodDisp.asp?item=M-HMC08&cat=10 I know it's back ordered, but is it just me or does this thing look just like a Hydra? The only difference seems to be the color and the LOWER price. The...

    Anyone looking for a Hydra?

    Saw an auction for Hydra's on c-bid. I don't see them there too often. So, I thought I would alert the public. http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=539768 Bidding has already gone pretty high, but there's still room to save a couple of $$ on the purchase price and c-bid's shipping...

    Cooler shopping

    OK. So my humi is over capacity at this point. I think I need a cooler-dor because I'm definitely not spending the money on a larger humi (just bought the one I have). My question then is . . . is one cooler better than another for making a cooler-dor? Obviously, the bigger the better but I...

    Let's reward some kindness!

    So, recently one gorilla around here granted one of my wishes on the MAW thread. I was expecting a single Gurkha cigar, but knowing that I had never had any kind of Gurkha this really generous gorilla hit me with FIVE different Gurkhas to try. So, I hit him back with some RG. Now, this...

    CI Legends: Don Pepin Garcia

    I decided to burn one of these sticks today because I had never had one before and they are featured on JoeCigar.com today. It's a great deal and if I liked it I had planned to bite on the JC deal. I originally bought this cigar from the devil site as a part of a "Pepin sampler" which I went...

    Maximizing Humidor Space

    I can't imagine this hasn't been discussed before, but I'm going to start a thread anyway. :ss When I first joined up here I decided I needed a larger humi and invested in a lovely 300 cigar number from Tampa Humidor. This is what it looked like about a month ago: Back then it had 50...

    Maxx "The Fix"

    I'm pretty new around here and all the reading I've done about cigars lately has really renewed my interest in cigars. I've been smoking cigars since the mid-90's and that was the last time I really paid any attention to the "cigar world." I knew what I liked and that's what I smoked. Then I...

    My new humidor - thanks for the help!

    Some of you may have seen my other thread: http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showthread.php?t=122487 Thanks to everyone who posted. I got a great 300 cigar humidor at a great price. My old humidor was from Thomson cigar (their logo fell off on the first day :D ) and probably only held 30 cigars...

    What cigar is this?

    About a year or two ago I was in Gloucester Street Cigar in Boston and purchased a cigar I enjoyed very much. I haven't been in there in a while (and I heard it might be closed). I'd like to buy more of these cigars, but for the life of me can't recall the name. I remember the band...

    Newb looking for help

    While I've been smoking cigars for many years now, I hardly consider myself knowledgeable (I just know what I like :D ). I'm especially ignorant when it comes to what makes a good humidor. I decided that I definitely need to trade up from my Thompson Cigar "Classic" humidor which I bought...
