i have a few from a while ago here . there are a few more opus a fer more anejo and a few less gurkha now. the smoking humidor thats in that thread has rolled over a bit also.
And in my case, though I don't have the pics to reference, I went through a weird phase where I was convinced that taking the cellophane off was the best idea...several cracks and chips later...Moral of that story, I only remove the cello right before I smoke.
I went through much the same learning experience with books and dust jackets, years ago. For a long time, every time I bought a hardcover book, I took the dust jacket off and threw it away; the damn things are just in the way, anyway. Over the years, though, I came to appreciate their usefulness.
That and I finally realized that, rather than throwing it away, I could take it off while I read the book, then put it back on. I'm clever that way.

This is what I've always done. I hate the dust jackets. I get very irritated when I sit down with a book and then realize I forgot to (take the dust) jacket off.
I never put the cello back on a cigar after I've smoked it.
I'll post up after I get my new humi in and seasoned... probably by the end of the week. To make things interesting, I will say that I've started to assemble minor ordnance for later dispatch to parties yet to be named.
Tray (pay no attention to the hygro, it dropped as a result of having it out for a while to take the pics), this is where I have my Habano-tasting lineup:

And finally, this a birthday present for my best friend, he doesn't smoke alot, but enough to justify having his own humidor:
Very nice set up you got there! I need to try to take some shots on mine this weekend and post them. I have been wanting to do that for a while but never think about it, or I'm in the middle of something when I do think about it. I'm getting a pretty good variety built up.
I love them, very mellow and the "infused" taste isn't too overbearing, almost like a very light peach taste. Awesome for relaxing and bullsh1tting with your buddies.
Pretty nice collection.. It looks like you have hit on nearly every taste and profile.. Where are the Fuentes ??
I have had a few 8-5-8's and Curly Heads, but those were all buy & smoke sticks for me. I have to dive into the Hemmingways or any of the other AF lines.
I would say, no humidor is complete without a few Fuentes cigars in it. I saw what looks like Diamond Crowns which Carlos Fuentes is a part of, but the Fuentes Cigars is one that must not be missed.
I know, I know, lol. I am going to a rather large B&M while I am on leave, and from what I hear they have really good prices and a great selection, so I will almost definately be picking up a few Hemmingways and maybe even a few of the high end sticks.

I also have a Gurkha Grand Reserve that I store separately.
I usually just post the links. I tried the [ img ] tags but they don't seem to work right.
