Help!! Burnt cigar is stinking up my humidor!!
SO a few months ago me and my roommate split the price of a 25 ct humidor. Everything has been fine and I've been maintaining it very well. I only have about 7 cigars but they're pretty expensive ones. They include 3 opus robustos, an anejo #46, a casa fuente super belisco, a god of fire churchill 2005, and a olivia "o" series petite perfecto.
Now being a college student I've spent a good portion of my measly amount of extra cash on this little collection of excellent cigars. The casa fuente and the GOF were both gifts from my wonderful sister who went out of her way when she went to Las Vegas and supprised me with some cigars that I can't wait to smoke. (Side note: The casa fuente has a crack in the wrapper, IM not sure if the guy at the LV store sold it to her like or if that happened on the plane or something so Im kind of bummed out about it. But Im going to see if I can fix it.) The opus x cigars I bought from one of the members here and I've been saving them as a graduation smoke for my roommate and another good friend. I had another anejo but that one is somehow turned to ash in the presence of my best friend who visited me over the weekend :ss.
Ok now to the situation. My roomie just came back from vacation. Being the great guy that he is he tried to bring some "Cubans" back with him. He basically picked them up off some guy in the street before he left so I could try my first cuban. So today he came back and after comparing the cigars to pictures on here and noticing their poor construction and very soft feel, I've come to conclusion that they are probably fake. Also there is some green discoloration on a few of the wrappers. Of course I didn't say anything I just sat there and enjoyed a smoke and thanked him graciously.
He didn't finish his cigar so he scrapped off the ash and put it back in the humi. Now, the humi smells horrible and Im afraid my very valuable cigars are going to be tainted because they are starting to smell like burnt grass.
What should I do? Should I get a new humi? Right now I have an empty cigar box I can put them in, should I do that? Or am I totally overreacting? I really need some help here guys...
