Has anyone else found a diamond in there humi

[The EVP]

I'm in your boat. I have a 100 ct humi with 3 cigars in it. Slowly building stock. What's the use of all that space and nothin to put in it?

Hmmmmmm.....that sounds like a problem that needs fixin'. Anyone feel like driving a bus??? :devil:

Why would you need a bus? That's just wrong...

Don't worry....the brothers here know what I mean. It's not a bad thing.

That's definitly not reassuring. But if you say so...

I found a Ghurka with a cigar beetle in it once.

Did the beetle hate the cigar too?

3 coolers and 2 desktops, but I'm so anal about organization, that I know what's in them, so no surprises for me. If I want a particular cigar, I know which cooler or desktop to go to. Sometimes I even know that it's in the 3rd tray down, on the left side.

a little ocd huh, i go through phases, but dont make many notes on what i hasve thats gifted/bombed, so when i lookk in that tub its always a surprise

Wow. I have never tried a Ghurka and the way you all talk probably never will.

There are a few good ones. The Crest is decent, the now discontinued Triple Ligero was actually good, and I've enjoyed a few Cellar Reserves. The problem is weeding through the crap to find the good stuff... it's just not worth it when there are other brands out there who make consistently good cigars.

I've had a few decent Gurkhas, but none that were "must haves." Don't bother.

 

[Themrlong]

There may be some good ones, but I don't believe you will be missing out on anything special. Just a marketing gimmick for overpriced tobacco

If I ever found a diamond in my humidor, the first thing I would do is think to myself, "How did a diamond get in my humidor?"
Then I would sell it and buy more cigars....but that's just me...

 

[The EVP]

Aside from the issue that Ninja mention is that they are severely overpriced because of their packaging. There is no justifiable reason IMHO to pay $15 for a Gurkha. At best, they are a $5-$8 cigar. Some of them are okay but I wouldn't go out of my way to find or purchase them.

I find crazy stuff all the time... same goes with liquor and my wine coolers.... I found a quart....yes, a quart, bottle of Johnny Walker Black a year ago... and Glenmorangie liter bottles of Burgundy wood and Port wood finish...made before they started calling it La Santa and Quinta Ruban...etc... They go back a few years. For cigars, I most recently stumbled on a forgotten bundle of 1997 vintage LGC miami rolled wavells...wrapped in the old logoed white paper they used to use at the old El Credito factory. And during my most recent humidor clean-out, I found numerous partial/combined boxes of old Pete Johnson stuff that I sold here..... after I made sure that I still had some for me... because I have finally come to realize that even if I smoked a cigar every day for the next 10 years... I will still have cigars....

Haha. I wish. I pretty much memorized everything I have in and outside the humi. It is getting more difficult though I'm not sure if that is good thing...
