Yes.

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

Okay, thank you very much. I will be picking these up soon.

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this,

I like to know if anyone knows Cigar accessory stores In Montreal, I need to purchase Cigar Punch.

Thank you

When storing smokes in my humidor, should I take them out of the plastic or leave it on?

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

Personal preference. The cello is there to protect the wrapper, however it is porous so it will allow some airflow. I usually leave it on.

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

Ok I have a torch lighter that I bought and use to light all my smokes. I was at an event this weekend where a guy saw me smoking and asked if he could get a light. I proceed to give him my lighter and he said “oh you don’t use matches, never mind” and walked away. So my question is do matches really provide a better experience?

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

Some people prefer matches, others lighters. I would seriously doubt that triple or quintuple refined butane has much or any more negative effect on a cigar than a match.....guy sounded like a tool, bring your own fookin matches azzhat!!

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

Nope. Fire is fire, it is highly unlikely that the tobacco leaf knows the method of combustion. :2

FWIW some people will only smoke cigars rolled on the thighs of virgins. This guy sounds like he may be one of those smokers. :sh

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

What a d!ckhead.
Anybody that pompous doesn't deserve a light.
:2

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

Probably the kind of moron that has no idea how to work a torch lighter and didn't want to embarrass himself. There are many more than you would think.

If anyone tells you they can taste the butane from using a lighter, it's in their head because butane is odorless and tasteless.

I know a guy that will only light a cigar with a burning piece of cedar. He won't even use a match because of the tip of the match isn't just wood.
Just as long as my cigar gets lit some how, I'm a happy man!

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

I know a few people who are completely clueless about cigars and they have asked "you can only use wooden matches to light, right?". It is a common myth amoungst non-smokers it seems.

What time of year is the tobacco harvest in Cuba? How long from harvest to earliest production?

Does anyone have a comprehensive life cycle of a tobacco leaf from seed to cigar?

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

With my new winedor, how should I get the smell out? I've read on here to use baking soda, but do I just open the box and set it inside?

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

That should be fine Tony; give it a few days or a week. Also, if you put the baking soda on some small plates instead and use several of these plates it might work a little faster -- more of bhe baking soda's surface area will be exposed.

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

Sounds good, thanks for the tip

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

If the smell isnt too strong you can just wash out the inside with a wet sponge with some baking soda sprinkled on top. :2

Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)
 

It's pretty strong, so I'll probably let it sit inside for a few days then wipe it down
