bigfunkyg Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 On my birthday a few months back, my wife presented me with a choice. I had the option of getting a new TV (to replace my existing 10+ yr old 27" CRT) or a new humidor. As tough as a decision as that was I decided on the humidor. A TV would come and go but a humidor would be a once in a lifetime purchase. Once that decision was made I had to decide where to buy from. I had read much about Bob at Aristrocrat Humidors and engaged Bob quite quickly and after initially pondering getting the smaller M+ I subscribed to the theory of "buy as much space as you can afford and went with the Mxt. After waiting about 6 weeks last Friday my brand new humidor arrived. Last night after five days of seasoning I moved all my cigars to their new home. Attached are some pics below As mentioned above its at Aristrocrat Mxt 19.5 in Dark Red Mahogany. Bob at Aristrocrat was a pleasure to deal with and I would highly recommend. Thanks for reading, Garrett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puros Y Vino Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Gorgeous humidor. You chose wisely. I like the Aristocrats. The shipping costs to get one over here make it unfeasible though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.T Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 That is a beautiful humidor. I've got one from Bob, but much smaller. His work is outstanding. Looks like you've got plenty of room left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cohiba Stevie Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Lovely work. I recieved my aristocrat 3 weeks ago and im in love with. You chose wisely! Can i ask: 5 days seems quite a short time to season a humi of that size, mine is much smaller and i left it for 2 weeks. How is your rh/temp at the moment? Mine is holding bang on 18c and 65% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is holding bang on 18c and 65% Thanks for all the nice comments. I never imagined I would be so fortunate to have such a fine humidor one day. 5 days was Bob's recommendations. The humidor was sitting just below 65% prior to adding the cigars so I bumped the humidity up a bit and we will see how it goes from there. It is only rh controlled and I didn't need the temp controlled option. G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
