Sooooo....

Today, Santa, I mean my boyfriend that always brings me gifts...you know the one...he works for UPS...

Well, today, he brought me some WONDERFUL things! I love him so much!

But one of the things he gave me is a Montecristo Royale jar full of 15 tubos and I don't know how to handle this...

Am I to somehow moisten the inside of my jar or will my sticks be fine in their little ol' tubes???

I'm lost....

God, I love opening presents from Cbid and CI!!!

WOO-HOO..................Marla

E-Chick, I do believe they make little humidor pillows that you could wuse in a jar. If you check out merchandise on cbid they usually have them. Hope this helps.

New to the boards,

At this very moment cbid also has little round humidifiers for a $1.

I would give them some kind of humidification. Tubes tend to be far from air tight.

E see link. I have used several of the products and they work well. I have a Monte Cristo CDA Jar I keep one in. It is rechargeable with distilled water and lasts 4 - 6 weeks or so per fill.

Thanks!

I just wasn't sure. I usually smoke up what I've got in tubes way too fast to ever be concerned about it...until now...

Iffin I had me a rich, blind sister.........

You'd owe me a LOT of smokes! LMFAO!!!

Love ya!

Marla, I've done a thing with tubes that works pretty good for me. Smoke one of the cigars and save the tube. Then punch a bunch of holes the length of the tube and with the cap off, twist it into a block of wet florists foam. Put the cap back on and wet it with solution and put it in the jar with the others. Works good for shipping too.

Hey E,

My cigar jar came with a small round humidifier that is attached to the inside of the lid. Everyone has talked about using tubes, but you can also attach a small humidifier with velcro to the lid. It works great for me.

Hey Marla,

I would want to humidify those. Personally, I would take them out of the tubes and refrain from sampling them for awhile too.

Take care

You can take a zip lock baggie (small one) and moisten some kleenex, enclose them in the baggie, and punch a few holes in it! This will work as well, but I like the idea of not using the jar and use one of your humidors!

Charlie

PS Fill the jar with jelly bellies instead of cigars!

i use a humi-stick in mine and the jar seals very tight and holds consistant humi ( or at least it does according to that little round thingie with the numbers and that little arrow inside that i put in there as well ) . . .

I've got two jars ... an idea that sounded better than it turned out to be IMO ... after learning that I didn't like them for keeping cigars, I filled them with bands ... it's a nice display that's often commented on.
