Humidifer ruined my Montecristo's!

[Cameron]

Well I bought a pretty cheap humi and spent $80 on 10 Montecristo's for a gift to my father. I took them out of the cello and put them in my humi.....well the sticky part that keeps my newly refreshed humidifer fell and now the cigars are all warped.

Anyway to save them? I will smoke them but it hurt me that I lost 7 $8 cigars to a sticker

Sorry to hear that... now if you need help getting rid of the "warped" cigars... :whistling:

Your cigars will get some crinkle but they'll be fine.

Get rid of that humidifier and get a tube of beads.


BTW Why did you remove the cello? This would not have happened if you didn't.

That's what sux about Credos. The tape and backings they give with em aren't worth a damn.

I mean really how hard is it to develop a multipurpose non smelly backing to hold up a credo in a humi?

It is also what pisses me off about the industry as well, the complimentary products for the most part inhale balls profusely.

Too many crappy lighters, humis, cutters, etc. out there. Though I guess there is probably not enough demand to develop great products to satisfy the cigar smoker population, without them costing an arm or a leg.

Even the crappy products are relatively expensive.

How would the cello provide that much protection? I have been recommended to take them out of the cello to let them age a little quicker. Personal preference I guess...

I used to take the the cello off of cigars, but I don't now. It provides the great coverage if you are taking it to smoke after dinner and just throw it in a bag in your coat pocket, or in your glove box. Weither you take the cello on or off, I don't believe would really affect the aging process that much. Tubes are different though. They help age, but I think, seem to hold more of a flavor.

Plus if you keep them long enough, you get Yello Cello! :thumbs:

If the cello was on they may not have gotten wet. I often want to take my cigars out of the cello only because I think they look better without it but I resist.
