Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
I think you are referring to aging and not resting. Usually, as Peter said, any time you receive cigars many/most people put them down for few weeks. Aging is all speculation and a crap shoot on both...

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
I've had the most luck lopping the entire cap off, going at it viciously with a draw poker and then dry boxing them for 12-24 hours.
If that doesn't work then it wasn't meant to be and I just...

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
Count me in the never heard it group as well. Nicotine for me is always felt in the head. The disorientation and nausea then settle in something fierce. I never feel anything in my stomach though. :sh

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
I would ask, how much of the cap are you taking off? The whole thing? You only need to shave the top of the cap off, you leave the "shoulders". So it is still rounded with just enough off the top to...

Ideally it would...

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
Ice chest probably won't matter, as I assume Ice chest is like 60-65? I couldn't imagine it being much lower. That's ideal for cigars really.
Bakery oven, not so much. Look into the thread on...

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
If whatever cutter you are using gets the job done nice and cleanly.....not very important.
If you're tearing wrappers and cracking caps, probably much more important.

What from I've seen the construction on the Java's is VERY suspect. I've seen some VERY underfilled Java's. Boxes of them too, like 4-5 boxes with each stick being so spongy you could pinch the stick...

Looks like an Opus X Double Corona, I believe I paid the same ~$20 for the two I had.
I haven't smoked too many Opus X, they aren't my thing, but I loved the double corona.
