What's the latest addition to your humidor?

Yeah, I've been afraid it would happen. That is why I bought a box of 7000 and 4000 Padrons! I'm not big on Gordos and 60 ring gauge, but I believe I may be coming around just a bit. I purchased this box of 7000, untasted and quite enjoyed the one I light up on Friday night!

I am not a fan of large RG either. I like them 46-50. Short Churchills are my favorites around 6X48. I hope I am completely paranoid about the shortages coming. But I want to be prepared.

I've found there are a few Brands that I really do enjoy a 54 to 60 ring gauge cigar from. They include JRE (Aladino and etc.), LFD, Davidoff, Aganorsa Leaf (mainly the JFR Lunatics.), Padrons, Roma Craft, and a few others. But those on the main ones. Gordos are not the first thing I'll try in a line; unless I've heard it is good from a source I trust.

I do find it interesting, as I believe I mentioned previously on here that for the Tatascans, from JRE, I actually much prefer the Gordos. I attribute this to the rollers and blenders getting better with the larger ring gauges and the sizes maturing. When the 54+ ring gauges really took off, I found them to draw and smoke for shit; LFD being one exception. That is why I never gave 60 ring gauges the time of day. Until I tried a Davidoff a few years after the start, it was the first 60 ring gauge I had. It was the Year of the Horse I believe and it was one of the best smoking cigars I had! It seems it just took the rollers and/or blenders, from the rest of the Manufacturers, a few years to catch up and the skills to proliferate the industry.


Edit to Add: On the shortages; I've had to setup about 6 different sized tupperadores. I've got them stacked, like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, on top of my coolers.

Picked up another box of Plasencia Alma Del Campo Travesias. Also grabbed a bunch of Aladinos at my local Lounge on Saturday. They had an Irish brunch; buy 3x cigars for $5+ and you got to hit the buffet! It was a good time.
