Just purchased some of these. Until i"m able to smoke them, Do i leave them in the tubing they came in and put them directly into my humidor?

    ok thank you you suggestions. Do you have any suggestion on a good smoke for the summer. I like mild to bold cigars.

    Don't ask me, honestly the regulars on here know more than I do on what's smoking good these days.  I have my favorites and go-tos, but I smoke alot of cheap ass stogies that most around here wouldn't even toss in the firepit to keep warm.  But if you must ask... right now I really like Camacho Connecticut for mellow, Ave Maria Original for medium (i'm a broken record), and I had a Joya Antano Dark Corojo yesterday that had great great full-bodied flavor... but a tight draw.  Dry-box the other 4 and try again in a week or two, I will.  Whoa, I just Yoda'd.

    About to light up a 601 Green Oscuro from 2007ish (made by Pepin).  Will report back if I don't pass out from happiness.

    Joyas are decent. Give them a year and they are good. I love the Ave Maria argentum, but if you are new to smoking you might want to wait on that one.

    Ave Maria original is great and so is their Divinia.

    Having tried them all, I personally think the Divinia is the best of the bunch.

    I gave the Gurkha Reserve a shot a try. It was a good smoke. Nice and mild with a nice draw. Great burn. But i believe a could have let them sit a little longer in my humidor. Will try another one maybe this weekend and see if it gets better in time. Thanks for all your feed back it was very helpful.
