Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
What would be considered too humid in my humidor?
I seasoned and let it sit for a few days, then checked today as I was dropping in some new cigars and it was reading 74.....it was 70 prior to putting the first batch in......... Anyway, it is now getting a little more full and I will be interested if I can get the 20 in that should be delivered tomorrow.... Long story short.... Do I need to "worry" about 74? Should I pull everything, put it back in the travel humibag thing I was using and go back to square one.....? |

1.) How did you season it and for how long? 2.) Have you calibrated your digital hygrometer? 3.) What humidification device are you using? Just a note. Adding new cigars can easily raise your RH level as most shops tend to over humidify them to account for travel time and the fact that most customers don't have humidors (or have humidors that are set up properly). I hope this helps ~Mark |

2. As I read finding out if I should be worried about this level of humidity, it becomes clear that this is a step that I overlooked. 3. Xikar humidifier. Quote:
So what is your advice now...... Pull everything....or just leave it as I calibrate....? |

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
I've a few bundles of cigars that came wrapped in cello (the entire bundle, not each individual cigar).
Should I remove the outer cello from the bundle to help w/ aging? For the record these are Nic 3000's I"m aging for a year+. Thanks! |

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
Hey everyone, hope you all are doing well. I am pretty new to cigars, as previously mentioned in my intro and post about beads, and am wondering, what are some cigars I should be looking to try? Right now, I have set up my 40 cigar humi and have just about 7 or 8 sticks in there. Not a lot, i know. I have recently discovered Cigar Monster and have seen what i consider some pretty sweet deals there. Pretty much, i want to know,
- What should a Newbie as my self be on the lookout for? - What Cigars are must haves for you veterans out there that you may have seen on CM or can recommend? - Is CM a good place to buy? I want to fill that humi, but of course, i want to in moderation. Sorry if i am posting in the wrong spot, but i saw beginner questions, so i thought maybe i could post here. Thanks in advance. |

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
Honestly, smoke everything you can get your hands on. Try a ton of stuff. There are 1000's of people on here and no one humidor looks exactly like another.
Try reading through the reviews here and see if there are notes about cigars that have flavors you like and try to pick them up as singles. Don't go crazy buying things just because there are good deals, there will always be good deals but just because a dog rocket is half price for a box you still get a half-priced box of dog rockets. Wait until you know what you like before you start buying boxes on sites like Monster, The Devil and Joe.

AVO is the most consistent cigar in my opinion and have lots of different flavors depending on which one you try.
