Good Evening I usually take about 3-5 cigars out of a box in my cabinet or winedor, which is usually at 72% RH for long term storage. Then put them in my desktop humidor at 62% if I plan to smoke them in the near future. After a month in the desktop at desktop at 62% RH I dry box for a couple of days before smoking the cigar. Past week I smoked, and totally enjoyed, a RyJ Exb #4 after my usual desktop then dry box routine, and wondered what another one of these from the same box would be like straight from the winedor at 72%. 2 days later I took a RyJ Exb#4 straight from the same box in the winedor and smoked it...the draw was horrible and tight, no flavors in the cigar, it was just absolutely horrid. I did smoke it and it became partially enjoyable in the last third. I used to smoke by the 70/70 rule previously and now I feel sad for all the cigars I wasted years ago that I could have enjoyed so much more. At 62% then dry box the cigar was a 91 At 72% the cigar was a 75 I cannot believe cigars from the same box can smoke so totally different just with RH change. Hope u enjoyed my experience, it just reinforced what we knew. Regards.

Cohiba Robusto MUO May 14. Oh my..... Fabulous cigar, incredible single malt, beautiful Sunday.

Couple of good ones this weekend!

A small town in Italy, either in Tuscany or Calabria. Somewhere quiet, but with access to rail so I can head out when I need a change of pace. A quiet little spot, with a view and access to fresh vegetables, fruit meats and fish. I could totally run a Bed N Breakfast there during peak seasons and string up the barbed wire when that's done.

Day of work and a Famoso in the sun...

Temperature? It's just sort of, kind of, somewhat important....

Forgot my bag of sticks I had packed for a huge hot tub party at my friends place so we had to hit the local shop... All of them good NCs. I cannot post any other pics from the party without getting banned and/or sued Sorry for the crappy picture quality. AF Anejo Shark, Tatuaje Cazadores Reserva, Padron Anniversary.

I want to come live with you, El Prez, because you have a warehouse full of CC's. I can sweep floors, clean toilets, make beds, mix drinks, cut and light cigars to earn my room and board. My wife and I won't need much space. Just a bed and toilet.

Johnny-O! Sampler 5 SBMFs 5 Rodolfo's 5 Torpedo's 5 LBMFs 5 Flying Pigs Can't wait to try one after they rest.

I would love to retire in a free Cuba, and have a house on the beach

For the French Press, I actually use a mortar and pestle to grind up the coffee. Takes a lot of bloody work but the end result is much better, IMO. Plus! No coffee matter residue.

Ravi told me no.

I prefer the proper espresso machine for my coffee when I'm in the house but use a french press mainly on my desk at work. I'd experiment with your grind size, you want it coarser than espresso but not too coarse. This guide has it pretty much perfect for brewing french press IMO: http://www.hasbean.co.uk/blogs/brew-guides/6552901-french-press-brew-guide

I would love to move to the Outer Banks in Corolla, North Carolina. My family has gone there every year for vacation since I was born. I know it's probably not the most exotic locale, but it makes me happy. I could settle with Tahiti though.

You did say anywhere

I'm am extremely lucky that I'm already there. East coast of the Coromandel Peninsular in New Zealand, Angela and I own one of the most beautiful lifestyle blocks we have ever seen and enjoy a lifestyle many can only dream of... It has everything I'm looking for. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Have not had one for at least a year or so...fired one up tonight .. easily the best cigar I have had this year. Balanced with rich coffee, leather, pepper and raisin notes towards the end .Construction was flawless ,robust in strength, if you have them, I urge you to try one. I consider myself a novice at best, so to give it a score well my little Singapura tried to eat my fingers ..97 Let me know if you smoke one ...I hope it was enjoyable as mine, Thanks Andrew you pulled this box for me.

I would need two places lol one in huge whitetail country for hunting and fresh water fishing and one near the ocean for deep sea fishing

or this..

Some place on the Mediterranean, like Spain, Greece, Italy...

Got two salmon fillets on hot-smoking on the BGE, one dry-brined and the other wet. Pre-cook: Six hours later, couple to go: Tail pieces already pulled and consumed!

Impossible! Have they forgotten Switzerland?

Today on our 1st day in Kissimmee we took the 2 monsters Go Karting on what is claimed the longest track in the world(1 mile long one lap).So both kids(10 and 12yrs old) did have a lot of fun by completing the 11 laps maximum.After that it was my turn to have fun as we drove to Orlando and went to the Corona Cigar Store and Diamond Lounge .I felt like a kid in a candystore and yes they allow kids in there.I smoked a cigar and one of the employees went across the street to get us pizza and chicken wings.Oma(my upper management gave the gentleman money and told him what to get.Your head starts to spin as you don't know what to buy.Well,I bought 5 boxes,107 sticks in total.Tomorrow it's of to see Mickey and cohorts.After that it's the Epcot Centre and then who knows what before returning to Canada.BTW we rented a Condo for a week and this place is fantastic.

Hey Andy! Allow me to be the first one to offer to mooch the spare bedroom!

Grilling Ribeye steaks and boneless short rib.

In a resort called La Tranquila in Punta Mita Mexico. 15min drive from Saluita.. hippie surf life at its best. Just wish there was cuban women there.

Hawks Win!

I had one back in October that was fantastic. Had another from the same box yesterday that was just flat Mike

I was going to say a box of Trini Vigia's from our Host are on my desk at work waiting for me, but this just blew me out of the water! That is just so impressively Awesome!

The only time my alpha cat will ever sit on my lap is when I am smoking a cigar.

The Big Island too. Awesome scenery yet almost like living in the country. If all goes as planned my wife and I will retire there in about 15 years.

I would like to live in the land of "Perfect" because there everything "Works"
