Cochiba.

[Bereta_Eder]

A collegue of mine returned from Cuba and he brought us as presents Cochiba cigars.

I thought I wouldn't smoke right away but save it for some special occasion or something (not monica related you perverts).

But I notice that the cigar becomes drier and drier. So my question is should I smoke it as soon as possible? Is there a danger that it will become so dry it will be almost destroyed? Or is there no problem with it being dry and I can preserve it?


Cigar experts?

Cohiba.
Cigars do need to preserve their humidity, they sell small higrometers and humidor boxes. wood ones are recommended so they breathe.
You can buy a small humidor box. (well, depending on the amount of cigars you got).

BTW, I don't smoke cigars... ewww.
But you seem clueless and interested in not ruining your good cigars (and cohiba is about the best there is)
so heres a source. www.cheaphumidors.com

Oh yeah sorry, I mispelled. It says :

Cohiba
La Habana, Cuba.

I don't think I can be bothered to buy one of these things for just one cigar

So you're saying that it is bad that the cigar goes drier and drier?

Can't I put it in the fridge or something

What about pickle smoking?

Just saw your edit Ltec, checking the website now...

You can put it in the fridge but it'll absorb the smell of whatever you got there. But for ONE cigar?

Just smoke it.

pickle first, smoke afterwards.
use good chips. :P

Yes, I don't think I'd buy a humidifier just for one cigar.
So you're syaing that putting it in the fridge will be ok? I don't want to smoke it out of the blue. I want to do it when something worthwile happens I have a completely empty deep freezer compartment. Perhaps, I'll put it there. The first deep frozen Cohiba cigar in the world? Here it goes

Is that what they call it now?

[LTEC!]

DONT FREEZE IT!!!!!!!!
ever hear the term used for folgers? 'freeze dried'??????
sheesh

damn uncultured newbies.
keep it HUMID, hence the word humid-or else.

[Bereta_Eder]

**** then. What am I supposed to do? Put it close to the bathtub or something? OK will take it out of the fridge and try to put it somewhere moist. I see Clinton had a point.

[LTEC!]

look for a little wood box (any) that will fit your cigar
and put it in the refrigerator.

[Bereta_Eder]

I was going to say that!

Thanks
