    Shit has stabilized at a nice 72% and I am letting it rest for a day before introducing the stogies. I knew everyone would want an update.

    You inspired me to bother with a digital hygrometer. Turns out my analog was a "whopping" 5% off. I added some water.
    I tried to dial my analog in off the digital, and it was fine, until the next day when it was 3% off. Dialed it in again. Next day it had gone 4% the OTHER direction. WTF over?

    Wonder if Rolex makes a hygrometer so I can have an accurate one in analog?
    Broh, anything under a variance of 5% probably isn't going to matter. Also, your analog isn't going to respond as quickly as the digital + is more apt to variance with heat & cold.

    Yeah but I gave it a full day to settle in after adjustment. A day each tim. If that fucker can;t find center in a day, then it should get buttfucked by an AIDS monkey.

    It could be broke from transport, it could be just not good. It's never going to be a swiss time piece. I'd recommend not futzing with it a ton. It's for a "general" reading. I'd say check it every so often and see if it's within 5-10% or if it veers significantly off.

    If you really felt the "need" you could buy a better analog and swap them. Then you risk fucking the thing up though. It depends on how much you really want style+accuracy etc.

    Or just get a smaller digital hygrometer, mine's 1/4 the size of the one you bought and cost $7.

    Or buy a bigger and better humidor and keep that one in a desk for "short term" storage or convenience when you need one "handy".


    Nah man I am goign to rock this humidor and my huge ass digital hygrometer. I can still get like 30+ stogies in there even with it present. But yeah, if I ever go big baller style with the cigars then I will FS up and get some uber 1000 dollar humidor and then use this one as my desktop one. In the trailer park. I am considered the style icon of the Roll Inn Trailer Court.

    Weather getting better ... holiday next week ... having friends over for fight night on July 6 ... had to re-stock ... cigar porn :)



    Not sure how many of you order online, but I usually use Famous Smoke or Cigar.com ... but ... heard good things about foxcigar.com and decided to check them out. They are known for throwing freebies in with their orders and they ship out of Arizona, so things could arrive a little bit fresher if you're on the west coast.

    Also, reddit is always good for a variety of suggestions: https://www.reddit.com/r/cigars/

    That's goddamn inspiring. I envy you right now. Not a good look for me.

    @DHD

    Thanks for the tip. I just ordered a Partagas Legend 6 pack and a Illusione 12 stogie sampler pack from foxcigars. With the 10 I already have from the local vape shitbox, that will pretty well fill up the humidor. Free shipping as well, and the Partagas Legend kit even came with a whiskey glass. Good pro tip. Will report in on freshness (like I know wtf I am talking about) when the package arrives.

    I am such a lifeless lu-ZER that I googled Montecristo White Reserve, and Nick from "Nick Takes A Puff" says it's a great BEGINNER CIGAR

    Congrats on taking baby steps with moderation

    Wait, is that a Latino revolutionary ghostly moan ?

    Why yes it is, Fidel turned in his grave and called you a faggot - says you should stick to candy cigarettes and bubblegum cigars

    Way to take down a great thread with your pussydom

    What's next, playing classical music and reading non-porn to your kid ?

    You remind me of @tenndawg (RIP). Very similar shit talking prose and taste in guitars.

    I should also add that I think the old vape shop stogie was a bit dry. So just as you smart guys suggest, need a better supplier. Hoping Fox comes through in a big way and they do not need to rest in the humidor for two weeks after i get them. By the way, looked up some high end humidor makers. Holy fuckballs this shit is expensive.

    Best value of the high ends appears to be Daniel Marshall and his shit are still 300-1000+ for desktop units with a max capacity of 150. Elie Blue forget about it. Desktop only and they go up to 3K. Jesus. If you get really into cigars you gotta have deep coin. Plus I am buying 10 dollar stogies. Looking at others that are 40 bucks a pop. Yeah, no. Staying cheap for now until I get this shit wired.

    Also, anyone tried Diamond Crown cigars? Couple friends of mine have suggested they are a great more high end brand that are pretty good value. 25 dollar stogie that smokes like a 40 dollar stogie kind of thing.

    Great advice, but worthless without a bit more guidance

    Think inhaling nitrogen is popular in Australia, supposedly peaceful...

    How about jumping into a plane propeller - give the blood splatter folks a mess to clean up, have nice teeth despite never going to a dentist, so there will be no dental remains ID...

    Maybe you need to move up to whatever Churchill smoked...

    So I’m going to give you an A+ for effort. I was rather entertained by the decently described ways to die.

    You need to lurk more...

    He was a snarky little, pretend lawyer, fucker. But I always really enjoyed his perspectives on music and guitars. Dude has good taste.

    The rattlesnake rattle Gibson is a dead giveaway. He always said it wasn’t real Blues unless the musician was born on a sharecropper plantation in the south.

    @Swaye

    I'll be interested to find out after you recieve your stuff from fox if they throw in other unadvertised extras. That's sorta' their thing, throwing in a surprise or two besides the freebie stuff that they actually tell you about.

    I just sexted @Swaye from inside the humidor at Total Wine 1 min from my house. Humidity seemed on the money and YUGE selection for all the rich ass Sand Point CC types.

    Can confirm. It was glorious. Rolex AND cigars all in one picture. Baller. Like me. This morning.

    That ain't no 8 foot tall rowing man's hand

    More like the grubby age spotted varment mitt of someone needing official OJ killing gloves to cover that arthritus AIDS paw up...

    Maybe next time use a mannequin or corpse, it'll look better
