So, newbies and good smokes don't go together?

I have a single B&M that I shop at regularly and I would not hesitate to smoke anything purchase right out of the box. But then this particular B&M not only keeps his walk-in Humidor properly maintained but he rarely puts anything on the shelf until they have sat in his humidified storeroom for a month or two.

I have both a 50 cigar humidor maintained at 65% and a large cooler also kept at 65%. The humidor are my ready to smoke cigars. The cooler is where I keep all my new purchases and about once a month I'll refill my humidor as needed and add to my humidor. This has allowed me to smoke different cigars at different "resting points" to discover how much time my cigars have to rest to reach MY OPTIMAL taste point.
