Guys,
What's the approximate wrapper "breakdown" in your humidor?
Mine is Maduro = 60%, Cameroon = 30%, EMS = 10%

humidor? you forgot the s.

but since you asked.
montes in the black lacquer monte humidor
la fincas in the la finca humidor.
a few of whatever comes along in the small walnut humidor

partagas series s exquistos and hemmingways, on the removable shelf, in the solid oak humidor that was made for me by a great cabinet maker in iowa.
pedorozas and victor sinclair vintage box pressed in the large walnut humidor.
acids and the home made acids in the el rey glass top, purchased here for a decent price. i like to see the fumes emitting through the glass. of course this humidor is on the bar on the opposite side of the room.
la habaneras in the funky sort of walnut humidor right next to me in the computer room
the extra 100 or so la fincas in the sweater box in the bathroom on top of the dresser
and let me not forget the 100 or so crap cigars that are being turned into acids (sort of)in the cooler chest in the work out room.
of course this doesn't count the butts sitting in ash trays that i smoke when i find them.

kind of eclectic.

i must be getting old, but i forgot the 8 cigar jars. 4 on the floor, if you'll pardon the pun, next to my lazyboy, and 4 on the floor under my desk in the computer room.

and unopened boxes and 5 packs in the cooler chest in the bathroom under the table that the tv set sits on. obviously this tv has cable.

I think the only person I know personally who compares to Rickamaven in terms of "cigars everywhere" would be lgates5 (see pic posts). All the stand-up lockers in his office marked "computer equipment" hide his secrets, those secrets being box upon box upon tupperware containers and chests full of everything. Just when he finally impresses me on Friday night by running out of cigars while we were out on the town (at times I think he keeps spares in his socks, he surprises me by disappearing for 10 minutes and then coming back into the bar with a full (unopened)box of Romeo y Julieta's (Cuban). Gotta love cigar people!

Rick, you are full of it. There is NO WAY you are telling the truth, and I can't believe everybody bought into it. Never has a bigger lie been told on this board. There is no way in hell that I'll ever believe that you could possibly have a workout room...

He does have one, it's where he stores and inventories his cigars. When the kid's come in to ask for money, he tell's them "I'm trying to work...OUT!) and they leave. Thus the term "work-out room."

I believe all his cigars are kept up on high shelves. therefore, he has to reach wayyyy up to get em. That's his workout.

I'm a huge maduro fan so I would say 50% maddies, the rest just take up space.

Funny? Before that last post,I would have thought Ricks workout room consisted of 3 dartboards, 2 with GW and the other with the whole family....Don't know if I'd wanna keep any of my smokes anywhere near my crapper though...Ewwwwwww!!! He does enjoy those other infused cigars though...

I'm running 20% maduro to 60% natural and a bunch of mixed from black to green. I only have 3 humidors. They are hardly full. Now that my wife figured out what CI fulfillment means on the debit card record. I don't see them getting much more filled. Haha.

I hadn't done a count in some time and reading this thread piqued my curiosity. I would have guessed about 70-30 in favor of the maduros. In reality it was 53.4% maduros, 34.8% others (nat, EMS, claro and a lot of the Ecuadoran Sun-Grown) and 11.8% of.....well let's just say imported. Truth be told, it was the total number that shocked me. Hadn't realized it had gotten that high. Maybe a trade or two is in order.
