Hey folks,
My name is Nick I am originally from New York, now living in Houston. I started as a super casual smoker(special occasions a few a year), gradually ramping up. about 5 years ago got a bit more frequent but never more than I could smoke, always B&M singles.
The cigar that really got me serious was the Montecristo White Rothchilde. What a smooth cigar. It was also my first box purchase about 3 years ago along with a huge (back then, now almost full) 200 count humidor. I had nothing but trouble with it back then, and let it empty out after about 6 months. Humidity, temperature, mold, etc.
I tried it again 6 months ago with a CO XL and calibrated digital hygro. Now I am struggling to keep temp down even though my place is very well air conditioned at all times. My RH is about 68 and temp 72 degrees. Hopefully this is good enough as I dont want to go the coolador route.
Sorry for the rant but looking forward to some nice posts and learning alot more about cigars and you folks!
