Mixing Cigars

Jon11 · 07-03-2012, 11:36 AM

Is it OK to put different cigars all together? Obviously not infused. For example, can I have LP#9's and PAM's stacked on top of Illusione Epernays without compromising the flavor of the Epernays.

Should be fine.

I do it all the time and it doesn't effect the flavors. If you are really worried about mixing of flavors, stack ones with cello on top of those without cello.

Only if it's consensual.

It doesn't matter as long as you yell, "Surprise!"

irratebass · 07-03-2012, 01:26 PM

Yep, I do it all the time, no worries just keep the infused away from the others.

It sure beats buying a humidor for each cigar you keep.

Yup! This is my Tat humi, this is my Fuente humi, this is my Padron humi, this is my etc etc etc.

I did put an FFP next to a connecticut shade and I noticed some oils had leached out the FFP and onto the spanish cedar and the cigar next to it.... I tend to put the darker cigars separate from the lighter ones.

Wax paper is good to have around if you are concerned.

Mugen910 · 07-03-2012, 02:25 PM

i would take the time to bundle each cigar in foil with each other. then put them in the humi. LP#9's together... PAM's together ... Illusione Epernays foil wrapped together then in the humi they all go. This keeps the integrity of the flavor profile in tact.

Is that why all your cigars taste like $hit?

Don't worry, the SUCK won't travel from one to the other....it's BUILT IN.

I AM KIDDING, I like all of those NC cigars just fine.

Never really noticed any real problem with mixing cigars intended to be smoked sooner rather than later.
However I have always noticed the real blah-ing down of any cigars just sitting outside of their boxes and
cellophane all together. If your cigars have no cello, I MUCH prefer that they be kept in their own boxes and
closed as tightly as can be. Tobacco oxidizes rather quickly in in the open air, which is great for fast-aging
cigars to smoke asap, but murder on cigars you want to hold onto. THAT perhaps is a much more important
question. Do I want my cigars out and touching one another? Seems like an ice chest is a better idea.
Desktops are much better for storing your smoking stash with an expected life of about 3 months. JMHO

Mixing Booze = Usually a problem

Mixing Cigars = Usually not a problem
