Cigar Labels

Out of labels and looking for a site that sells one's that actually work. Looking for blanks like regular cigar bands. Last batch I got was not so good.

Any recommendations.

    Try this guy as I've bought from him on his group buys. Last one was in 2013 but the bands are excellent.

    Post It notes.  Perfect size.  You can cut strips to width if you want.  Glue does not hold permanently, but holds until you can put a piece of scotch tape over the seam

    Good to hear from you @bandyt09

    Bummer, just got 500 and put a few on about 20 cigars. Haven't looked in a few days to see if they've held or not. I'll be interested in what you find.

    Some hold, some do not. You will know soon. I have found them unraveled after a few days, weeks or months. Use scotch tap now to hold them on. Not a big issue but would like something that holds better.

    For labeling cigars that don't have a celo, I cut strips of paper a bit wider than scotch tape and long enough to wrap around all my large gauge cigars. I then secure the band with a small piece of tape.

    RSherman's idea of post it notes cut to width is also a good idea.

    I use these.  They work well one you get the feel for them.

    Have never used bands but as I slide deeper into the rabbithole I can see their usefulness

    I like being able to mark a date or who the cigar came from on the sticks without cello.

    Through this first year of cigars I have used a very intricate filing system to track things, unfortunately this system relies 75% on memory and my memory is like my humidor, constantly churning. Ordered the labels to free up some memory.

    I just smoke em. Then I don't have to keep track.


     I love you guys. So I think I will send a random bomb out.

     It will land Saturday or Monday. 

    Go Dodgers!
