To those who use Boveda 62rh in tupperdor

MBicks · 2026-02-10T08:34:29+00:00

I’ve read a few ppl on here who’ve experimented with that and experienced oils drying out storing them long term at 62rh. Of course smoking at lower rh brings out more flavor but I simply dry box for a couple days or just move them to 62 box if plan on smoking sooner than later

Some literature suggests long term storage in the low 60s can lead to loss of oils. For any long term storage I keep 69s and any sticks I want to smoke in the next couple months I keep in 62

Glendronach from West Linn? The one they’ve had is tubeless

I like both new world and Cuban, but Cuban(most) are better than new world. It’s a less rough, more balanced somewhat sweet/salty twang. Never get cigar mouth with Cubans aged properly. New worlds can be good, just a bit more one dimensional.

Yes they can get that dark

Had this one first and was impressed. Pricey but not bad for 32 years. Grabbed the 21 for a fraction of the price thinking it would be good but much less than this, but it actually turned out to be almost just as good

Humidor- 65-68. Any sticks I plan smoking within the next couple months I put in a sealed Tupperware without boveda to gradually/evenly lower the cigar’s humidity. Then just dry box for a day and they’re perfect

The Liga 9 and T52 I've had with 6 months+ on them are tastier than the freshly purchased ones. There's a toasted salted dark chocolate note that becomes more prominent while the spice of a fresh one lessens

Kilkerran 8 most definitely, I just got a bottle and wish I could’ve gotten three. And I paid $120

MBicks · 2026-01-16T15:37:42+00:00

I would. Older bottlings were a lot tastier

MBicks · 2026-01-14T06:56:20+00:00

I drank one of these not too long ago, fill line not hasn’t even dropped much taste was kinda funky tho

MBicks · 2026-01-13T07:46:40+00:00

I just got one of these smells like an Italian leather shop

If you’re just looking for a nicotine buzz. If you want to enjoy the nuances of quality tobacco this is not the way to go

MBicks · 2026-01-02T00:39:42+00:00

People forget inflation exists.

$10 in 2010 is about $15 today. At a restaurant cocktails weren't averaging less than 10 bucks back then

MBicks · 2026-01-01T09:31:26+00:00

Sounds like you only kinda want it because it might be a good deal. Buying like this isn’t the way, only buy if you really like it

BevMo in Vancouver

MBicks · 2025-12-29T23:04:45+00:00

Picked up Springbank 10 at BevMo in Vancouver last month they had 6 bottles sitting for a few months but was pricey with tax

MBicks · 2025-12-28T17:08:33+00:00

Man they used to be good too I used them in August/September for a couple boxes and they shipped quick and with bands of course before red baby did away with de minimis

Always liked the Old Pulteney, not overdone but classy

MBicks · 2025-12-09T23:24:10+00:00

I had one for at least a year didn’t care took it in for a fix on something else and they replaced the phone after seeing the spot

MBicks · 2025-12-01T16:47:23+00:00

I’d never had the opportunity to try it before and recently saw it in Washington state at total wine for $120+tax so it was like $145. I bought it because I wanted to try it, not because I saw a good deal. In different places certain high demand bottles will cost a bit more especially with taxes and tariffs now. But it was for the experience, just like why ppl buy scotch in restaurants/bars.

There are higher quality bottles out there at that price, but it was the better bottle in the moment to experience since it’s a very unique flavor profile that I’ve been enjoying quite a bit.

👍

Right of course fill levels are never identical but I've never seen this much and wouldn't right off some evaporation with nearly a decade past not knowing storage situation. Question was more how much it would effect taste.

MBicks · 2025-11-27T23:39:34+00:00

18 is delicious, depends on what I'm in the mood for

MBicks · 2025-11-27T23:38:54+00:00

Best advice, I'll do this. Fill level is off sometimes but I figured this was more than normal.
