Acid cigars

Just got a tin sampler of Acids. SHould I keep them away from the non-flavored cigars in the humi?

[joeobx]

Yes

Thank you sir.

yes... do not mix them with other smokes or the acid flavors will infuse them for sure.

This. And your humi too.

It's not clear from your question, but don't even keep the Acids in the same humidor as your other cigars. If you don't have another humidor, make up a quick tupperdor and stick them in there.

Keep your Acid cigars away from your other cigars, and out of your humidor!!!

Buy a tupperware container at Walmart and throw 'em in there.

Would this Apply basically to any "Flavored" Cigar? The only Flavored Cigar I Smoke really is the Drew Estate Tubak Especial I love those, and are my #1 Favorite Infused Cigar.

Ive kept them in General Cigar Population in my Humidors, But They usually dont last long because I end up smoking them.

It will take many weeks if not months for flavors to meld between cigars. Over the short term storing any infused cigar will not likely have any negative affect. Just because you can smell some of the flavors does not mean it has penetrated the cigar enough to notice any difference in taste. Most of us are very paranoid about our cigar storage but in reality cigars are much more durable than we think.

Sounds Reasonable enough.

Bob, what about the humidor itself? Any chance that the wood might hold some of that infused smell for a period of time extending past removing the cigars?

before i go right into what i wanted to say i would like to introduce myself!! names micah sparks - and as odd as it may sound (to some) i am a male, some just comment its a female name regularly but i beg to differ seeing as how i recieved the name via the bible and micah was a man as well!

anywho, i was just surfing the web about cigars and i wound up here on the cigar asylum forums. and i know there's no better way to get to be educated in cigars and cigar smoking but to spend time on furms with professionals and true connoisuers! i've only been smoking cigars for about three quarters of a year but havent been able to smoke cigars on a regular basis and get more acquainted to tasting the wide variety of great tastes. so with my new found hobby i learned some smoking techniques on youtube with smoke rings pipe dreams' videos and was easily fascinated with infused cigars such as the tabak especial.

but just the other day i was shopping online for some cigars since i cant find any cigar shops where i'm currently stationed in japan. on this website i found the tabak especial line and ordered a smaller box of both the dulce and the negra line within tabak especial. but since i'm in the military i can only (and barely) afford space for one travel size humidor that fits roughly 20 cigars. if i store both these cigars in the humidor how bad do you think storing the two together would effect the taste of one another? and if i were to store some in a bag, are plastic bags like ziplocks qualifiable?

i apologize for the long paragraphs, i've always got a lot to say! but thanks in advance for any replies

When I was buying those sampler tins, I'd just pick up a Boveda Pak and throw it in the tin with the cigars. Worked fine. So well in fact, that I once had 4 tins that I was using as my only humidors. My how things change...

Having smoked a fair number of Acids, the only one I would recommend is the Opulence 3.

Not hatin', just warnin'

Thanks, one and all. I got a Xikar pack and now they're in a plastic container. I did try the KUBA KUBA last night not too bad. Very mild.

That's because the only one that YOU liked was that particular cigar, when truth of the matter is, they're all great cigars...to someone. If the Opulence is the only one you'd recommend, it surprises me that Drew Estate sells the Kuba Kuba and Blondie 3/1 over anything else in the Acid line.
