unless you found me a seasoned and cared for Cohiba

Like the one below from 2010? It was one of a number of sticks given to me on a very special occasion. Been meticulously aged in my Ellie Bleu humidor ever since. Waiting for the perfect reason to smoke it. Everything in that humidor is over a decade old, and some are closing in on two decades.

I think I’ve smoked all the sticks you have in that box, yeah, save that Cohiba for something special.

You should smoke those Ligas, those don’t tend to rest as well over extended years.

A little Blantons and a Davidoff for tonight, your picture inspired me to go dig into a humidor have looked in for a while!





To add:
Ellie Bleu? Please post a pic!

 

[Kaldak]

Chicago one is 2/8 and the Flag one is 7/50. Both are "110 count". Though we both know that's not realistic...more like 75-80 without cramming them together. There are more sticks left, right, and above not shown in the picture.

They are my nicest humidors from a visual perspective. I have one from La Aurora that's a massive 300 count and a cabinet one that was custom made for me by a 80yr old master carpenter back in 2012. The cabinet one is my box storage.

^^^^^^^
That is absolutely stunning! I’ve downsized a bit so I’m left with the 2 Prometheus’s. I got a great deal on the trunk size God of Fire and had to get that too!

^^^^^

 

[Kaldak]

That trunk sized God of Fire is awesome! That's a very nice collection.

I have to stay far away from humidors in my regular B&M cigar shop or I'll go broke. They know I can't pass up a killer deal on the gorgeous ones

 

[Ooh-Rah]

My B&M had that Elly bleu that you have for a little while…. I was tempted, but they wanted quite a few dollars for it.

 

[RYLES]

Your B&M @Ooh-Rah isn’t so bad .

Kole was off today, so I grabbed some Atabey and a Davidoff Late Hour. Was hoping for some Andalusian, Sharks or some Opus other than the Lost City they always carry.

Hey brother - the bounty is still out on an Opus BBMF Maduro! Unable to find them. Gents keep sweeping them up for crazy prices and then storing them away.

Still waiting on my guest key to your B&M locker rental! You oughta share a picture or two of that Fort Knox!

I added shelves….

But hey, vapes are apparently not a health risk!

tobacco-control measures such as barring retailers from offering discounts or promotions on tobacco products as well as price hikes on all tobacco-related goods, excluding vapes.

The whole ordinance is harsh. Sorry to hear this.

Found my new hunt

I wanted that stick so bad when I read about it...and then they went ultra limited. I was, very sad.

I used to be vocal about how I thought people who vaped were unhygienic, and then I found out the super nice chick from marketing who's super anxious vaped. So I started shutting up.

 

[Ooh-Rah]

Damn nice evening.

 

[RYLES]

Had one of the best cigars of my life last night!

A few years ago my right hand man, a Regiment brother of mine, left us. His twin brother (a Marine) drove over from Wisco yesterday, and we sat around the fire pit last night talking about him and enjoying cigars.

I don’t remember the cigar he or I had, but it was the best damn cigar I recall ever having!

@Ooh-Rah here is your chance at owning a Commandant’s cigar holder.

My local cigar store seems to have closed. Not shocking considering I could find Opus X from a decade ago for 10€ a stick still there. So I found a bar that has a very small humidor. Normally I’m nota fan of CAO, but the BX3 is pretty tasty.

Shoot me a note when you need a resupply. Happily send you a care package of tobacco goodness.

I appreciate you. My wife’s heading back home for a month with the kids soon so my FIL will take care of my humidor refill.

And so begins… The 2024 Halloween season.

This year's Tat stick is already out? Or, do you mean for you and your busy season?

 

[Ooh-Rah]

do you mean for you and your busy season?

Yep.

That stick is a few years old.
