    Ha, nice one @dirtdude! Gettysburg is great. War history, good food, pretty women, and an epic cigar shop just off the square.

    another storage question; picked up a couple new ones that came in their own tubes--one metal one plastic.  My question is when keeping them in the humi, do i take the caps off?  When i picked them up they were in the store's walk-in humi with the caps on but wanted to make sure since they may be in there for a bit (until the next "special occasion").  thanks in advance!

    There are 2 schools of thought on that subject.
    Some will say take the cap off and some like me say it makes no difference. 
    It's up to you.

    Welcome newcomers and Welcome back old timers.  If it is a Welcome back, you most likely were here long before me.

    Aloha.
    I'm realatively new to the cigar scene. I bartended at a cigar bar in San Jose many years ago and thought that tobacco wasn't my thing. My fiancé recently went to Cuba and brought me back some cohiba's and now I've "seen the light". My fav were the maduro no. 5's. Any recommendations on comperable (yet cheaper)?

    Welcome, I have very limited experience with Cubans. So,I have no suggestions for you other than to start trying non cubans. Maybe try the Crowned Heads Jerico Hill. I have no clue if they would compare to the cohiba you mentioned but I sure do like 'em.
