I know where to get boxes for 140$ shipped. Or 5 packs for 78$

Unless Gerry bought them all.

Don't think I bought them all .

I have 5 full boxes and about 12-15 singles.

A package arrived today from a member from the Houston area. Thanks, Jay.

Man, I can't wait to try these smokes. Will try to post pics later.

thanks again

Enjoy. Those are some of my favorites that i figured you dont have yet.

Tell me about the orange, blue and yellow banded ones. Texas special releases??

Jay, thanks for the heads up about the boxes. My humidor is still stuffed though.

I am smoking a 2013 La Gloria Cubana Trunkshow tonight. Game 7 for the Penguins is starting shortly. GO PENS!!!

The yellow banded is a Crowned heads yellow rose, the orange is a Tennessee waltz, and the blue is a Paniolo. Texas, Tennessee and Hawaii only releases. They are supposes to be the same blend, but have 3 different flavor profiles.

Damn. Quick rant. I ordered custom made drawers for my newair cc300 wineador about 13 weeks ago from wineadors.com. The website and receipt both stated there was a 4-5 week turnaround time. Well my drawers arrived today, nvm the wait time, and they were wrong. Wayyyy too small. Look like the cc120 drawers. I go to the guys website and try to contact him. There is no phone number, only an option to email him and a disclaimer that emails are only read m-thurs 10-3 est. Kind of pissed. Gonna have a smoke and forget about it i guess. Hope he fixes the mistake. This really sucks cause i Have 4 more boxes of smokes otw and nowhere to put them.

Damn, I hate stuff like that.

He's really slow and has been having growing pains / trouble with fulfilling orders.

I paid the extra on mine and did the rush shipping and had the drawers in on time. I ordered some knick knacks later and had to chase him and complain to PayPal to get him to ship $30 worth of stuff.

Hopefully he'll fix you up quick.

Tonight's smoke:



Special occasion cigar (for me, some of y'all are always ballin around here)

Well i filled the drawers he sent me. Leaves me room for maybe 1 box. I can probably move some more stuff around and make the other 2 boxes fit. Maybe. Hope he makes it right. I want to give the guy a great review, i see all the nice custom stuff he makes and he does have a talent. It did suck to see him posting up pictures of all his big orders (full humidors or zebrawood drawers etc) for months before I finally get a "shipped" email. Almost like he kept putting the smaller order off. For 50$ more i could have ordered drawers from Newair and not had this headache.

If I remember correctly, Forrest does the drawers for NewAir. He does the ones for the complete wineador you can order. The ones that come pre-seasoned in the cooler.

Well i put some HF beads in my 2 desktops, gave the other 2 to my cousin. Getting them seasoned up in case i have to use them. I might have to go big like Gerry and pony up for a giant unit at some point. At least the Mrs is ok with it if I do. I showed her pictures of his new humidor and she pointed to a spot and said we can make room for one.

As many as you smoke - go for it! You'll save in bulk :-)

I'd have to sell my first born. The cabinet and stock is more than the vehicles I own.

First blast of flavor and the first few puffs were just like a Liga. Then it mellowed out with some hay and grassy notes, very Tat like. About a 3rd in and it is just like the Umbagog, with a bit more strength. Not sold on these just yet.

Last night's Tat


Tonight's tat

Looks like the dry boxing works. Tonight I'm smoking a jaime garcia reserva especial taa 2017 that I dry boxed for 2 days. Picking up more flavors than the one I smoked straight out of my Humidor.

Now if I could just name them all :-)

I keep the wineador between 62-65% RH (bottom to top). Didn't think it would make too much of a difference. I'll have to try it with something I smoke kore regularly.

I use a Cigar box with a 62% boveda, this morning I'm having something new.
