I only smoke 3-4 cigars per week in the weekend. I can really look forward to it. It's a whole experience for me to choose a cigar for the evening and smell it many times before finally cutting it, toasting it and tasting the first complex but delicious flavours. I hope to one day try your cigars!

@bobbyvandam74Ай бұрын
@@EPCarrilloCigars Several brands, and types. I tend to enjoy the more full body robusta ones. It also depends what the local stores have available. Unfortunately they don't have your brand and online ordering in The Netherlands is forbidden. I just got intrigued with your cigars by watching many of your videos. I love the videos for being informative and I like the company's story and being a family company.

From a novice smoker: I had some fine cigars in my traveler humidor with some bóveda packs that surprisingly dried out unexpectedly. I noticed that two of them were dry and cracked at the cap once I cut them for smoking. I noticed two things, a.) the slight unraveling at the draw side of the cigar allowed for some draw leakage (frustrating) and b.) taste was strangely different than what those cigars typically taste when they seems properly humid. I came to these conclusions as a novice and prior to watching this video, so this definitely resonated with my experience a few weekends ago. Thanks Liz for bringing this type of conversation to the channel!

How does temperature affect humidity? I have a heating/cooling electronic humidor and live in northeast Florida. Our thermostat is set to 74 degrees. I find that 69% RH works best for my climate, but have a hard time maintaining said humidity and constantly adjust the temperature of the humidor between 68 degrees and 73 degrees. There are a ton of opinions about RH out there, but not much is said about temperature. I would definitely appreciate your insights! Thank you and keep up the great work!

@dailybread4047 Жыл бұрын
🔴🔴🔴 Pardon my ignorance in asking this question.... I have always watched cigar collectors and affectionados keep their cigars in humidors to protect and age their tobacco. Now my question concerns their blending the different brands in the same system box. I think by mixing the cigars in the same humidor will change the flavoring tastes by the time when one selects one to smoke. So then how can we get the true taste since each is feeding and withdrawing flavors from all the other stored in the box? Shouldn’t each brand have its own humidor?

I have a wine/ cigar humidor and I struggle to maintain proper humidity. Shelves are cedar but walls are plastic. Any suggestions?
@EPCarrilloCigars Жыл бұрын
Odds are if it was designed as a cooler for wine it has holes to allow for less humidity. You need to find the holes and block them with either clear silicon or small pieces of duct tape. The easiest way to find them is to empty out all the shelves and look for wholes in the plastic walls potentially using a flashlight. Once they are sealed also make sure that the door has a good tight seal and then use your humidification system and bring it to proper humidity. Depending on the system you might need to adjust up or down by the output or quantity of devices (for example if you are using Boveda style bags vs a small humidifier). This should resolve your problem.
