I'm assuming these need to be seasoned before throwing them in the vino? Is there anything specific to it or just the same as seasoning a humi? I will probably have to throw a bunch of boxes in the cooler for a couple days since I will have to make room for the trays but keep them empty during...

So my wife has not exactly been completely thrilled about my rapid descent down the slope. It's not necessarily a point of contention between us, she just doesn't quite understand it. So when I showed her my new Vinotemp purchase last week and attempted to explain why on earth I needed it, I...

So is there a consensus regarding air flow in the Vinos and how it affects cigars? I see many people storing all their sticks in trays with no lids and slotted bottoms and others saying use boxes to minimize air flow as much as possible. Trays certainly seem easier but if you have sticks that...

One of my retailers informed me that he won't be getting Anejos until Christmas. Is this true for everyone? Aren't they normally released around this time. I know Opus is starting to appear but what about Anejo? Can anyone confirm??

It looks like 1lb and under priority shipments are now $4.75 instead of $4.60, at least online. Not sure about any other changes. I did a quick google search but came up empty.

In my quest to somehow justify a vinotemp to my wife, I was wondering if I could put it in my closet in our bedroom? I am wondering first if I would be able to hear it with the closet door closed, but also about ventilation issues. What kind of ventilation requirements does the vino have? Anyone...

The last couple of sticks I have smoked have developed major tunneling burn problems where they start burning down the center of the cigar before the wrapper burns. This pretty much destroys the cigar as the draw becomes impossible and I get no smoke. I clipped a half inch off the foot and could...

Anyone know of a small-ish 3-5 stick travel humi that has a place for a cutter and a lighter? I hate having to remember everything and would love to have an all-in-one solution. Any ideas?

Not only did I have my first Anejo tonight (a Shark nonetheless), but it was warm enough to wear shorts on my patio. Add that to being able to watch one of the best hockey games I've seen in a LONG time (Washington over Philly) and you have a pretty incredible night for me. The Shark was...

My wife and I are closing escrow on our new house this Friday and I picked up my celebratory smoke - a Padron 80th. I have never spent $30 on a single stick before (not even for cc's) but I needed something that really felt like a celebration. I'm still somewhat of a newbie so this smoke may be...

As a newbie here at CS I must say that this is by far the best and most helpful forum of all the many in which I participate. Never has any other forum made me want to give back to its members in any way other than a simple thank you via a post. So I want to give a big thank you to everyone here...

Having only recently gone head first down this new slope I realize that more and more I am turning off the boob tube and heading to my patio with a book and and a cigar. I have never really been much of a reader, preferring to usually watch a movie or a show late at night after my wife goes to...
