I've been basically smoking large ring guage cigars for quite a while now (55 and larger). Am I missing anything by not smoking smaller ring guages, like say lanceros for example?

Guys, I would eventually like to get a custom made humidor. How many of you have done this and how much should I expect to pay to have one made? Pics of your custom humidors would be a plus!

Hey, how many of you dads have asked for cigars for Father's day? How many of you actually get the cigars you ask for? This is my first one and I asked for this: http://www.cigarsinternational.com/proddisp.asp?item=SP-CIDD53&stext=mamoth What are you guys asking for?

I'm used to started and ending my weekend days with a cigar. But as of this weekend, Mother Nature has not only turned up the heat, but the humidity as well. Yesterday morning I went out onto my porch to smoke a Padron, and I couldn't keep the damned thing lit! It got to 102 degrees yesterday...

Greetings fellow BOTL! Yesterday was the greatest day of my life as my daughter Olivia was born! Today, as I sit in the recovery room with a sleeping wife and baby, I was trying to come up with a topic to discuss that 1) hadn't been done to death and 2) would help to pass the time between...

I discovered Gurkhas about three, almost four years ago, and it used to be that they were the end all, be all for cigars as far as I'm concerned! But, this week, I stopped by my local B&M because my wife was shopping at Target and I had a good hour to kill, so I took advantage of their smoking...

I just won my first auction at Cigarbid (no wonder you big apes call that place the "devil site")! Got a great deal on a couple of five packs of Gurkha Legends and CAO Black (just wanted to try the CAOs). When I took them out, they seemed, well, kind of soggy. I don't mean they were dripping...

Okay guys, the new fifty count humi is almost open for business. I received my order of Gurkha Triple Ligero from CI and my first order or humi tube beads from Heartfelt (thanks again Viper139!) and my new digital hygrometer. Now, I'm trying to calibrate it and I brought the calibration pack...

In the short time that I've been a part of this forum, I've learned that I basically have been going about doing things all wrong since I started taking cigars seriously as a hobby! 1. Never calibrated my hygrometer for my 25 count humidor! It always showed around 65%, but now I have doubts...

The majority of my humi contains Gurkhas and Davidoffs, with a few CAO and Oliva thrown in because I want to try them this spring. However, after showing of my humi in the humidor picture thread, I was advised to get the CAO flavors out (I bought the sampler pack, tried the moontrance and hated...

I have a 25 count desktop humidor, that has closer to 35 cigars in it. When it didn't have as many in it, I had no problems reaching my magic 65% humidity level. Now, about a week ago, I was holding steady at around 60-62%, so I moved one of the boveda packs and placed it on top of my cigars...
