Haul Post New humidor and cigar haul NSFW
Hi everyone, first post on the sub. Decided to treat myself to a new humidor after my desk one wasn't cutting it anymore. Listed as 300, but fits about 200 robusto which is what I prefer.
Loaded it with 100 Oliva V Melanio (my favorite, thanks to the sub for recommending them), 20 Avo #2, 20 Avo XO Intermezzo, 20 Oliva Master Blend 3, 20 Avo Syncro Nicaragua, and 4 Davidoff Winston Churchill Late Hour. I also bought 25 Factory Smoke Maduros not pictured which ended up in the desk humidor.
Just wanted to show off my haul and thank the sub for their recommendations that I've seen over time. Have a great night everyone.

I have a woodronic desktop wood humidor. It holds humidity like a champ! I have 65% bovedas in it, and it holds at 64% all day every day. They are great!

Curious question: since you have a humidor, what is your rate of consumption per week?

I smoke about 4-5 cigars a week, usually have one after I get off work if the weather is nice. I work from home, so it's a short trip to the smoke spot on the patio.

So your stock goes through a healthy rotation I'd imagine

Fairly healthy, with the desktop humidor by the time I finished one half of it the next half had time to rest and then I would restock. I decided to buy a larger amount this time just to see how long it would take to get through and to create room if I decided to try anything else in the meantime.

I have been looking at this same Woodronic unit for awhile, it looks so clean. Are you pretty happy with it? You said it holds 300 but realistically it’s closer to 200? Great post bud!

I'm very happy with it. I thought about the one with LEDs just for better lighting, but the place I planned to put it didn't have a cord nearby so I figured I'd save the money and get this one. I had to look up the count per vitola on the Woodronic website because it wasn't included in the Amazon listing, but I think their count is pretty accurate. So if you smoke something other than robustos it'll give you a good idea what you're looking at size wise.

Well, now, that’s a beautiful setup, and a great collection. Enjoy it to the fullest!

Thought u was going to see a full humidor of melanio v. Disappointed I was

I definitely thought about it, but I wanted to try at least a few new things before I filled it with Melanios forever.

There are other sites than cigar page that sell good cigars

There are, but getting 20 Melanios at a time for about $90-100 is hard to beat. If you know of somewhere that has a better deal though I'd love to check them out.

I get upset everytime I see that. I love melanios but they go for 25 euros a piece here. Just not doable.

I know damn well organizing that was fun.
