Well, that turned disappointing rather quickly.
Burn issues like you wouldn't believe. I could not keep the wrapper lit to save my life. I have that feeling like my tongue is coated with oil and I have tongue bite like I'm smoking my pipe.
Its totally my fault tho. I forgot that I had 8 cigars in my desktop after the move to the new house. I started the new job at the PD and neglected the humi while at the academy. I snagged a few sticks in September of 17 and didn't keep a close eye on the 100ct humi with 8 sticks in it. I'm sure they dried out pretty significantly. HF beads are great, but they won't take care of all that empty space.
I got the wineador set up about a month ago, bought a 35 ct Diesel Sampler and got it rock solid at 66/65 and moved everything into its new home. I have bought cigars since the Sampler (thanks to the devil site) count is now up to 75 sticks.
Guess it either 1-needed a lot more time to re-humidity or 2-its beyond saving. Guess I rushed things and got excited to smoke something that I had a year on. Even though it was probably 4-6 months at well below 60%rH and definately hit over 75F in the summer. Ambient in the summer is 51%rh. The batteries in my hygrometer were dead and I have no idea what the desktop was at when I moved everything over.
I hope it's not the latter, I stumbled upon some old label Camachos that were in there too. I'm not sure which blend it is. It's the old style red label. I'm assuming it's the Corojo. They're figureados too....if they're ruined it sucks. Found those in Eureka Springs Arkansas and bought the last three he had. There's a soft spot in my heart for Camacho. I got started with Acid cigars, Camacho was brand that got me hooked on non-infused smokes. I got into cigars the year after they changed the labels. All of my cigar buds told me that the new stuff sucks compared the the old stuff. They're still out there, just hard to find. My last salvation is the 5er of PE Camachos I got after the wineador was done. Got a month on those.
This concludes my intoxicated rant. It's the late night thread, and 3 glasses of Bib and Tucker has me feeling pretty good. I'm fighting the urge to go grab another smoke. Probably a bad idea since I won't taste much of anything. There will be cigars smoked tomorrow!!!

That was my thought. I did my first review and finally got over myself and posted it up. I want to do reviews on just about everything in my wineador. Wife passed out, I can't sleep and wanted a smoke and a drink. I said "screw it, let's go for bold and strong. I'm going to try to put myself on my ass." I immediately went for the Antaño 1970. I don't get much of a nicotine buzz from cigars anymore. I can thank my mistress Copenhagen for that. Glad I didn't grab the Cane F660. I can't imagine how that would have tasted if it's in the same shape as the Antaño. Guess I have some stuff that's going to be chilling in the wineador for quite some time.

Double Bump Bump!
I wanted to be this guy!
I was telling Mr. and Mrs @Pennywise827 a story about this song on Saturday night! I was in the strip club in Fargo standing by stage peeling bills for the dancer the first time I heard this song. I fell in love with both!
I got engaged to a stripper once; glad I backed out, dodged a bullet, she was scary, but I kinda liked it!I was telling Mr. and Mrs @Pennywise827 a story about this song on Saturday night!
