Another n00b intro...

Welcome Cale. You'll learn a lot from these guys. I did the same deal with Cuban Crafters. They have great humidors, but the cigars that come with the humidors are horrible. The only ones I liked, that are decent are the Arte Cubanos Toros. That's about it, the rest I just hand out to my friends.

Glad you mentioned that. I thought they might be junk since they are almost like freebies. Here is my final order:

I'm excited!

Now get yer butt over to http://www.heartfeltindustries.com/Beads.htm and pick up some beads.

I just split an order with Guado for the 65% ones and so far they seem to be working perfect... I just need to get a digi hygro now... friggin' analog ones. BOOOO!

Welcome from Chicago. I lived in California for most of my life. Why did I move to Illinois?

Ditto on the beads.

[Cale]

I'll get the beads ASAP! Which are the best, 65%?

[designwise1]

Yes. The 65% beads work best for most people. The 'experts' seem to think they age better and are easier to light and keep lit when kept at 65 RH.
They just require a few squirts of distilled water about once a month. (My location anyway--your local conditions may require a less or more frequent adjusting of moisture).
Good luck!

[Loudpipes78]

We went with the 65%.

I was really impressed I think I ordered them Tuesday and got them on Saturday. They ship from Nevada, I'm in Orlando.

Once you get the humi setup and stable I'd suggest getting in on the newbie sampler that's going on, I should be getting my package Friday.

Cale:

It looks like you're going to get a lot of the same cigars I got in my Cuban Crafter sampler (Although your humidor is nicer).

Tell ya what, when you get your's in the mail let's compare what we have. Then let's both smoke the same one and both do a review of the Cuban Crafters cigar from a newbie's perspective.

I already did one "Newbie Review". I think it's cool idea for all the new folks to get a point of view from other folks who havn't developed the cigars lovers palette yet.

[Loudpipes78]

That is an awesome idea Dru
