Any LCDH or good cigar store in Abu Dhabi?

Heartwarming. Neat story.

He knows! He’s Larry Legend for many reasons, including his shorty shorts!

Ripped from the pages of Reddit. Imagine the crowd if he was providing Cohibas! Finally a "feel good" story linked to cigarettes(yes not this groups 1st go to, but related).

Agree, I like my Padrons with a tad more humidity than Cubans and a short dry box if I need to

same ... I always remember he said he felt cold was better in general overall for long term aging.

Juan Lopez Lancero Adriatico ESM DIC 24. I’m going to split the tasting notes into quarters. First quarter: cream, cedar and some citrus notes. Second quarter: sweet spices and cake. Third quarter: milk chocolate. Last one: dark chocolate, coffee and earth. edit: 1 hour and 45 minutes smoking time. Good draw. Had to correct the burn 2 times in the first half and relight once towards the end.

Just ordered the Lonsdales. Looking forward to their arrival!

There is some merit to this, to be sure, and drier Cuban storage mitigates draw issues in my relatively limited experience. For me, things like Padron smoke better at 66 because it does something to the oils that make them smoke silkier and creamier than they otherwise would. But I like my Fab5 and Bond Roberts at 60-62 because it brings out their nuance and honey sweetness, which is similar to what I get in Cubans at that RH.

Ok, I didn’t realise it’s that small. Anyways, try to keep it as temperature-stable as possible. Don’t bother too much about were exactly it sides, just see what provides most stability under your conditions, like @Bagmanalready mentioned. Instead of tupperdor, in your case, I’d rather go the route of insulated boxes. Mind you, cigars stored that way might need some acclimatisation before indulging.

I wonder if non Cubans liking (or our perception of) higher humidity is directly linked to them being less tightly packed. I've not got the most NC experience but most definitely appear to be less tightly packed with tobacco, barely a plugged cigar among them but certainly a few wind tunnels. Does higher humidity and a higher water content within the cigar give greater resistance and a more pleasurable smoke in a lightly packaged cigar? I've found the Fab5 cigars are rolled much like their Cuban counterparts, in respect of them being tightly rolled. Feels like maybe 62 might be where mine go next.

I’m fortunate to have this phenomenonal joint in my town. If you ever get to Grand Forks, ND - it’s a must dining experience. https://harryssteakhousend.com/

I've had my humidity at 69% (nice) but I'll sometimes to a short dry box for maybe an hour or so.

All play, no work Saturday. Sovereign Suns may now be my go-to morning stick to pair with my coffee and dog walks. I don't know what Rob and Hamlet are feeding the team, but please triple it 😂

I dare you to say that to his face.🤣

I second this. The Aganorsa has corojo has a really special aroma that's hard to describe

Hot damn! Who knew Larry Bird’s in daily life was a real thing?! 😆

Killer threesome 😉

Wife and I are going for afternoon tea at Raffles Boston. Both looking forward to it. Neither have been to this recent hotel addition in the city.

You must like Alpine Butcher if you're from Lowell. As good as it gets. I know one of the Savenor's, but have never shopped there. Not very close to my house.

Earl Haffler is a wise man.

All the wurst kind of things.
