So, I've only been a member of Cigarpass since late April. Shortly after becoming a member, I purchased my first desktop humidor. Shortly after that, I learned that the high temperatures here in Hawaii are not ideal for storing or aging cigars, so I purchased my first Vinotemp and ordered a couple of pounds of beads from Heartfelt, along with a large tube to keep on the top shelf. My wife didn't know about it until it showed up at the door :laugh:
After a day of leaving it in the box, she warmed up to it and I ventured to open, clean, de-smell, and set it up. I should have purchased the 28 bottle, but my wife would have killed me on the spot. The 18 bottle was a decent compromise. I purchased some Opus X and WOAMs from gmiranda33, they are excellent! The rest are what I have purchased over the past couple of months. I don't often have the opportunity to enjoy a cigar while my wife is home, so what I have should last me quite a while. It's hard not to go out and purchase some of the sticks I have my eye on, though! Here are some pics of it stocked. The RH stays at around 60 right now, but I believe it's because the boxes are soaking up quite a bit of the humidity. This is the best purchase I have made for my collection, by far.
One question, my Partagas box does not close all of the way (it looks like the PSD4s have expanded a bit). Is there any harm to having the box open 1/5th of an inch or so? I am keeping them away from the back as much as I can, unfortunately the box can't fit in sideways.
