  1. Default Whoa Im a lost dog

    Hey guys Im new to the cigar buisness and am kinda of lost. Basically all I would like clarified is what are some beginner cigars? And how do I go about buying a humidor and setting it up? I plan on only smoking cigars on the golf course so I suppose a 15 or under humi would work. I also heard about some humi pouches or something that can keep cigars for a while, have any of you seen these? Thanks!

    If only there was some kind of sampler that could be put together especially for new guys. It would also be sweet if there was some tool for people to search for information. What a crazy word that would be, right?

    Just found these bags called Arturo Fuente Humipaks they sounds like the knats ass, also have good reviews. I think I'll give these a go since Ill only be buying 3-4 at a time and smoking them within 2 weeks. Now all I need to do is narrow down to some beginner smokes.

    Have any of you tried Arturo Fuente humidipak or whatever there called? Im thinking this would be my best bet, I just don't see myself smoking enough for a humidor. Thanks, and all beginner cigar ideas will be appreciated

    Plastic bags work.
    Humidipak$(tm) work.
    Whether the bag or the Humidipak$(tm) say "Fuente" or "Boveda" on them or not doesn't change chemistry. My bags say "Zip-lock Freezer bag" and I made my paks using kitty litter in envelopes. Mine work too.

    ETA:Boveda

    The only thing I noticed is some only last 90 days while the fuentes are guarantee'd for 6 months. Lmao this cigar stuff isn't the easiest stuff in the world, who would of thunk you actually have to read on how to store and buy and cut a simple cigar? No one seems to want to repost some beginner cigars, I'll keep searching

    I don't know why you guys call this a forum... hardly any of you are willing to help.

    Your questions have been answered. Maybe not to your satisfaction, but answered none the less. Does your mommy lay out your clothes for you in the morning?

    Basically what VM said. Go to your local tobacco shop they probably have some little humidity pouches, probably $.99 or so, et a tupperware container that will hold your 4 or 5 smokes, buy smokes, Punch, Montesino, La Gloria Cubana, Arturo Fuente and Padron are good places to start., I might suggest Gispert for a nice mild smoke if they have it as well. Now soak the humi pack in distilled water, important, and put it and the cigars in the tupperware container.

    Didn't your question on beginner cigars get answered in your thread from February?

    Not sure how this place is deemed unhelpful...This place has tons of info as well as a great amount of people that will go out of their way to help new smokers out.











    By the way...What's a hump pouch?
