I do have some other questions though:
1 beads or Boveda? I started with HF beads but then switched over to Bovedas. Now use them in combination (…see Stogie’s post about using both at the same time…)
2 cellophane on or off? If it came with cello, I leave it on. Easier to store and move around when I hafta play Cigar Tetris.
3 Gurkhas any good? Surely you jest?
4 where can I get some Cubans? Name and addresses please Sorry, can’t help you there.
5 is smoking one a day gonna kill me? Hope not but only time will tell.

Gotta be beads, nobody’s throwing Bovedas at women to show their boobies

2 cellophane on or off?
Better take it off or it will melt when you smoke your cigar

3 Gurkhas any good?
Anything with a $99.99/cigar MSRP must be phenomenal

4 where can I get some Cubans? Name and addresses please

Depends on what you’re doing when you’re smoking it.

I have never experienced any woman showing me her boobies after I've thrown anything at her...not that I often do that. Guess I'm hanging out with the wrong kinda women...

Wait a minnnit...there was this one time in a darkened place called the Honey Bucket...

Don’t worry about it. Over the years Anthony has become an even more grumpier FOG (…if that’s even possible 😝 …) so take his comments with a couple grains of salt. 🧂

Conan there is truth to what you say. Yes, I guess I am a bit grumpier lately than before. Perhaps I’ve allowed certain things to irritate me more than I should.

RE: Cellophane - I remove enough of the cellophane with scissors so that just the tip of the head and foot of the cigar are exposed to the humidity. That will help maintain the cigar while also protecting them from other cigar scents bleeding into it.

Other than flavored cigars, afaik, there’s no real concern with mixing cigars with each other. In the process you described, I’d be more worried about damage to the exposed ends when moving them around…but that’s just me. 😰

The one thing I will do, as far as separation goes, is to put Connecticut and Cameroon wrapped cigars together in a humidor with 69% Bovedas. The rest of my inventory is at 65%. Iirc, Z posted this storage method a few years back after someone complained about their Connie cigars cracking too much.

It was a tip I picked up from Nick Cutro. I figured it couldn't hurt.

And I don't move my cigars around - at all. They are sorted and segregated and left alone until I grab one to smoke.

Why are your cigars being moved so often that this has become a concern for you?

I used to catch chit here years ago cause I’m pretty anal about cigar organization.
I use excel, and have all my storage containers broken down into “sections”.
No need for me to “rummage” around. I take a quick peak at my excel sheet, decide what I want to smoke, and I know exactly where that particular cigar (or box) is.
If I know ahead of time I want a Le Bijou Pet Rob for instance, I can look at my spreadsheet, and decide if I want a relatively fresh one, or one with a year or two, or a well rested one.
It tells me where they are, what I paid, when they came in, tasting notes, etc.
Its a godsend for someone with borderline OCD…

Pardon 1926 all the way! I loved it and the 1964! I have had 2 davidoff cigars and thought both were ok at best and expensive as hell! (Not that I paid for them!) liga privada no.9 and LFD double ligero round out my top 3. If I buy a box for $400+ it won’t be davidoff
