Cigars??

It was an 1844 reserve

 

Hey Matt-with the U.S. supposedly getting chummy with Cuba, do you think that maybe.....Aw, forget it.

But you never know, right?

 

Hey, Secret Santa. I would LOVE some CIGARS. My wife hates them, but if I were to get them from SS, she's got no defense.!!!!! I know this is late, so I have not expectations, however; if you are still looking for ideas. Here you go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

They only lifted travel restrictions there is still $100 total limit on tobacco and alcohol. Imo Nicaragua makes better cigars anyway lol

 

Don't these look yummy? $10 off during the special.

Honestly? No. Too much money and only about 6-7 decent smokes in there. Samplers are good though when youre starting out trying to develop your palate.

 

Always value your opinion. Thanks. Also, I have taken to ordering Nicaraguans with more satisfaction with the results.

 

Thompson is terrible in general. Lots of better places to purchase from....

 

I havn't been using Thompson for a number of months now. I still get their e-mails and got a little excited once I saw the Oliva brand in that specific sampler. Had my first oliva a couple weeks ago and I sure did like it! Reckless is kinda my "cigar coach"...at least so far. I don't think that he knows that, either!

 

And one other thing I have noticed since I started smoking "better" cigars in the truck...no horrible lingering residual smoke smell! I still have some bad ones left that I am going to use in bug season...but went to help out with snow removal for a buddies MIL and lit one up. It was so bad, after three puffs, it went straight into the snowblower!

 

Up until 1/31 famous-smoke.com had $40 off $150 order... I will post the new code once I get it.

 

That place is great!

 

Not out yet but Im working on it!

 

How do you maintain the humidity if they are in the fridge? Around 70% is acceptable.

"It’s OK to store cigars in the refrigerator/freezer: despite the large number of people who swear they’ve heard this somewhere, no expert tobacconist has EVER advocated this as a long-term storage solution. Remember, refrigerators keep food from growing mould by whisking moisture AWAY from them – the exact opposite of what cigars need to stay fresh. While a fridge has more moisture than the average room, you shouldn’t store cigars in them for more than a few days at most."

Found this on some site. I have never stored in the fridge and just cautioned my HS buddy against doing so last week. Think of this- a fridge/freezer will dehydrate (remove humidity) with any extended amount of time. Thats why the food is covered for storage in fridges and thats why ice cubes "shrink and disappear" in the freezer.
But if DH is happy with the way the cigars are, I guess you can't argue with success.

 

Ive heard that tupperware works pretty good reckless might have more input into this though.
