My In Depth Vacuum Sealing Cigar Guide For Long Term Cigar Ageing

[Bagman]

If you are REALLY bored, I ramble on for just over 2 hours about vacuum sealing. Pretending to be an expert. How to, why, the principals, various tests, the results, etc...In the notes section of the video is a time stamp so that you can skip around and avoid the entire 2 hour chat. I suck at videos and never want to do that again. All that work for 10 people to care, or less.    I should have offered a well aged cigar for anyone willing to listen to the entire video!

I've been waiting for this for some time, and honestly thought it was something that wasn't going to happen. Thanks for doing it! 

I will have to set aside a double corona and listen to it tonight or tomorrow, please don't take it down before then 😂🙏🙏

Let me know if you would like me to pin the vid for a week or so.

Great vid. Any chance we can get a transcript from it? Tried via YouTube but it didn't have the option.

Sure thing.  Always here to help anyone go down this path. It is a passion of mine.

You had mulled the decision to sell off your vast inventory at "cigarmageddon" prices and pay off your house mortgage. Did you have second thoughts? Or was it just a "momentary lapse of reason? 😬

Sorry for the delay. I ended up wanting to really run some time on my tests. That and I hit a wall when it came to video editing. I had no idea what to do. It took me a week to figure out how to get video files off my phone! Then my computer was giving me problems encoding all 25 videos. It was quite the adventure.

I can work on that. I wrote down everything I was going to talk about. In fact, that is a good idea. More of a research paper approach. I'm much better at that then videos.

I went thru the 7 stages of grief. I had strong opinions along that journey! I moved on to acceptance and have been content ever since. I do have an allocation of boxes not in a vacuum seal that will be sold on Bond Roberts over the next few years. Only a handful, 20ish boxes I think. The rest are sealed up and I'm going to just now enjoy.
