For a smaller, quicker smoke many choose the robusto size. They are are 50 ring gauge, just way shorter in length. Most brands offer it in their line up. There's also a lot of funky little one off sizes out there these days too but they tend to be more expensive and in the boutique category. Corona or petit corona's are also quick smokes, but they are much thinner in size. But for the right occasion they can be perfect.Humidor is staying steady at 73%.
Looks like the analog hygrometer on the front is off but I saw it has an adjustment screw. Even still I'm going to keep the digital one I have in there with the min/max levels to keep an eye on things.
I soaked and then wrung out a new sponge in distilled water and set it on a plastic ring to keep it from coming in contact with any of the wood.
Does anyone have favorites for smaller cigars? I don't always have a good hour plus to sit and enjoy a smoke so having some smaller options would be nice for busy days during the week.
Also, I'm keeping an eye on those daily deals at Cigars.com with the free shipping. I looked at some of the other websites and my issue right now is seeing affordable (inexpensive lol) boxes and then adding 25-40% after taxes and shipping.
I've been searching around cuz 20 years ago I was smoking a brand that had Caballero in the name but can't quite remember the full name and do not have the boxes anymore. Is that a designation of the type of cigar or other generic marker?
Thanks!
Do any of y'all have to de stink yourselves for work or a spouse etc?
Any tricks?
I wash my hands, brush my teeth, add a spritz of cologne and use a very fragrant lavender hand lotion. It mostly helps.
I like the smell of tobacco on the hands but the wife is not fond of my oder when I walk in from being outside with a cigar.
Was less of an issue when it was a once a year or so thing but at a couple a week it has started to be more offensive to her very sensitive sniffer.
Thanks!
Whiskey!!! Whiskey always dilutes the power of cigar smoke and makes her think you are a drunk instead!!
Ugh lavender... You're losing creds man! (haha) Try some Fast Orange shop hand cleaner. It's amazing stuff, smells great.Do any of y'all have to de stink yourselves for work or a spouse etc?

I haven't had a Don Carlos in a while. Excellent smoke! I guess I'm going cigar shopping this weekend.
