Imperfect draw..Nice! Does it work?

  • Haha 4
Posted

Peter james case.

69% mini boveda.

Perfect draw.

Les fines lames cutter. 

Colibri v cut.

Colibri 3 punch.

Cheapo brass zippy with dual jet.

Cheapo Bic soft flame.

Whatever cigars I think I might want.

 

The downside of the case is that where I love now it's so dry it starts to look like my hands, dry and cracked, if I don't lotion it at least once a week.

And I love soft flames for touch ups and relights. I'd really be interested I'm a good single flame jet lighter soon.

My thinking on all this is that I like to be prepared, and I believe having solid quality accoutrement adds to the enjoyment. Plus, I'm a bit of a dandy when I happen in town.

Think you could streamline your setup and get rid of the tubos, use the cutter as your stand and use a tooth pick as an imperfectdraw.

the toothpick is perfect help for burning my lips without burning my fingers

better yet, streamline it more and throw away the cutter and impefect draw - carry a toothpick  and use it to poke a hole in the cap for draw, and works as an imperfect draw too 😆

The best use of a toothpick is to stick in the cigar if you have a cigar where the filling is too lose and you need a bit of body, Try it out and thank me later.

As for the Tubos they are essential as I can use them for any marcas but people think I am smoking a Cohiba.

This is fantastic.

Oh nice, do you have to find specific brand of tooth picks? Vintage ones better? How many can you add before it takes over the cigar profile?

Good point about the tubos, great to flex on IG with the clear leather case as well.  Just put a sticker on it to say Goyard.

When out and about I carry my lightweight cigar pack that fits what I need for the next couple of hours:

Imperfect Draw tool with Cohiba case

Fine but Lames cutter

Stank Dupont lighter

24 carat golden cigar stand 

Partagas Tubo for the Siglo 6 (why not) 

Transparent leather humidor case 

I then try to find a nice outdoor spot to sip some brown gold at.

What does your packs / kits look like?

That kit is pure class.  Love it. I recommend upgrading to the Congelatore transparent leather case though. 😁

I normally age my toothpicks to match the cigars. If get them from a local B&M they're good to go. If I get them shipped I try to put them down for at least 90 days. I've used all kinds of brands but settled for anything made of recycled cigar boxes. 

Btw there's really no minimum or maximum amount you can use, but I always say don't waste a good toothpick on a bad cigar.

My Mobile CC Kit:

  • Pelican R60 Travel Humidor (Large enough to put Double Coronas and has flexible lid organizer/rigid divider tray with three Velcro mounts for cigar tools and Boveda packs)
  • Two Boveda 65% RH 60g Packs
  • Colibri V-Cut Cutter
  • XIKAR Executive II Lighter (will replace with S.T. Dupont Defi Extreme and Le Grand Cohiba)
  • FOH Lighter
  • PerfecDraw Precision Cigar Draw Enhancer Tool & Nubber
  • LaserUs.co.uk Skull Stainless Steel Cigar Stand
  • LaserUs.co.uk Lockdown Wood Cigar Stand

I'll add Cuban Crafters Dos Chabetas Perfect Cutter and Cigar Prop Red Butane Lighter Air Bleed Tool Version 2.0 as well.

This is a really nice setup and great for traveling. I've looked for a case just like this one. Any issues when going through airport security?

Thanks buddy! It's absolutely all rounder tanky travel humidor for sure 😃.

Haven't tested Pelican R60 Travel Humidor in the airport yet, but I can say FOH Lighter works really well in airport security by separating it in two parts. I believe R60 Travel Humidor will manage to pass through airport security too 😄.

Dont really have a kit, as i keep all my cigar supplies in my desk drawer and always cut them and test the draw while still in my room, so i can use my modus II if needed, and put them in my very nice leather 3 Cigar case (has an incredibly good seal and is cedar lined, great case for the $20 or so I paid), or in one of the various sizes of tubos i have saved.
This way I have no need to carry a bunch of supplies with me to the smoking areas.

90% of the time just this now after years of overthinking, over spending and over packing.

Timeless, elegant, classic, if I may say so. 

But how to bring a Double Corona? 😅
