Any particular reason you favor the humi jars vs holding singles in various cigar boxes?

They're CAO Flavours. A bunch of different kinds.
I always keep them filled up so there's something for non-cigar smokers to smoke when they're around.

They used to be on a couple shelves above my wine coolers.
I moved them into the displayador for the time being. I'll continue to use them for flavored cigars but I'll ultimately get rid of most of them.
I'm not at all a "various cigar box" fan. I generally put my cigars in drawers or jars just because I think they look much better that way.
I don't know why I don't like the Tetris look. Too busy maybe?
I do like my Fuente boxes though.

I've been thinking about getting some of the Flavours for my wife and any of the other women who may want to hang out on the deck and smoke with the guys, but don't like 'regular' cigars. Which flavours are the best, which to avoid?

My wifes favorites are the CAO Eileens Dreams, and the Tatiana Cappucino. The Eileens Dreams I believe are Irish Cream Flavored..

Irish cream and chocolate truffles, I believe white chocolate.

The Karmasutrasplash is really good. Eileen's Dream (I just smoked one tonight) and the Cherry Bombs are really good, too.
You have to get the tubos though. The pc's and robustos are disgusting. About an inch in and they all taste like burning tires.
The tubos hold up through the whole smoke.
If you'd be good enough to pm me your address, I'll be happy to send her a couple of each kind so she can try them out.

Scott as usual is spot on. My wife only cares for the tubos.

Thanks for all the advice guys, and for the generous offer Scott!

Now I'd like to return you to your regularly scheduled programing, who's got a humidor to show off?

Shilila, nice setup or should I say setups. Not sure which I envy more, the humis or that it looks like you have your own man cave with two TVs stacked and all your goodies accompanying them. I am assuming your running l.e.d in the cabinet for lighting. This is hopefully my next project for my end table humi and was hoping you could share how you did the lighting.

02-10-2009, 10:41 PM

Ok I have just spent the last hour looking at all the humidors, I am throughly impressed I would put mine up but I feel in would just get lost in the shuffle, Na I will put it up when I get some new pic's of it. Great stuff guys.

troutbreath · 02-16-2009, 10:07 AM

That is an awesome setup Scott.

s15driftking · 02-16-2009, 11:02 AM

Less words, More Pics!!

Soon to be un-ghetto-fied with some nice drawers!

Everything I have is man-cave. It's cause I'm not married.

I used cold cathode lighting powered by a computer power supply. I made a thread somewhere...
Here it is.
I finished the lights, added a couple individually controlled hydras, and put three fans in powered at 5 volts so they spin nice and easy.
I took pics but haven't updated the thread yet.
