Forgetful inventory moment?
 
Ok, so I never thought I would be saying this, but I have been going through my cooler today and seriously wondering how the hell I have so many cigars and have forgot about some these. Anyone else have this problem, or have had this problem?

I dont mean to brag, I think a few of you might be the only ones to understand. No one else gets it. :sh

But that's the fun part of hoarding cigars

i agree with the above two...nothing better than finding something you forgot you had!

Its how I got my first self-aged cigar. Managed to lose a Oliva O for about a year and a half and dug it up while searching for something else.

Well if you have tooooo many cigars, I wouldn't worry about it, you can always send some to the troops :D

Hah. Was digging through my box at the cigar lounge the other day and found some gems I forgot I had. Always fun to find something you forgot you had!

I was digging through my humidor and found Nicolas Cage in the bottom. He had been there since 2009. I had been wondering what had happened to him.

I hope you put him back down for a few years...

After Ghost Rider he's gonna need at least 5 more years. :)

This happens to me all the time. I pick up a 5ver at my local B&M and put them away and 2-3 sort of get lost and forgotten only to be discovered years later.


On the other hand I don't seem to have this problem for my ISOM humidors. I think I know every single cigar and the exact amount of years on each stick. Go figure. :sh

You should kill him and freeze your stash! Don't risk it.

He should be left and undisturbed in his slumber, a wild nick cage is very dangerous. Best thing to do is burn the house down and move out of state. I am sorry.

On the up side I found half a box of Viaje S&B 2nd release. :banger

I call this phenomenon "Humidor Archaeology".

I guess if you know where all your cigars are,
you don't have enough yet.
Then there are some guys who know what when and where each
cigar is from.

I keep an inventory with all the relevant info, but that doesnt mean I don't flip through the humi and forget I had something (or forget I more of something than I thought) :ss

I always consider these "finds" as gifts to myself. It is always a pleasant surprise and I enjoy the cigar(s) that much more.

Quite the dilemma.

Looking for gasoline. Do you have a spare room?

I think we could work something out, it is always sad when a friend has to deal with a Nicolas Cage problem.

I keep a rolling inventory spreadsheet that gives me month and date each stick is added or removed. Now I just need the barcode scanner and I am all set!!

THIS! It happens periodically when I store mixed singles together in a cab. It's a wonderful experience. One of the end table humis I have is nearly 2-feet deep & I am forever finding pleasant surprises buried in the back. As I get older and fatter, Im not as motivated to squat down and go through my stash, so it makes remembering what's where a bit of a chore. But it also makes for some great finds.

Cab boxes buried in the back of humis or bottom of coolers are the treasure chests of our obsession....

Devan...those two Viajes have aged terribly...send them to me immediately for disposal. :D

I actually just finished smoking one out of a box of Partagas NC that I've been aging for about 3 years now.

Accidental aging is the best kind of aging! :D
