Cigar collection (AKA what do you like to smoke)

[etakmit]

Have we done this yet?  What's your collection look like? 

Is it a small single humidor (or maybe a tupperdor), maybe it's a few full cabinets?   Or something in between?

And to go along with this - what's IN there?  Maybe you're a Rocky Fan, or Drew Estate, or a Cuban lover.  Maybe you're just getting into this and you have a bit of everything you could get from Cigar Bid or that Thompson sampler(please don't do that - Thompson is the worst)

I'll start!

 

I have a 28 bottle wine cooler with five drawers and a single shelf (for a few boxes) from cigar-coolers.com (John is a great dude)

I also have two seven qt Sistema sealed tupperdors and a gallon freezer bag (double bagged).

 

Pretty much entirely full.  I am a major Dunbarton and Warped cigar guy (along with Drew Estate as well).  But I have a very large variety of cigars and I dont generally keep boxes.  So its singles everywhere.

I have a small 6 bottle coolerdor I got from Aldi lol I keep my sticks in a tupperware container inside the cooler because I need to make/get some shelves for it. I use 62% Boveda packs and keep it at the highest temp setting so about 64* but the hygrometer says humidity and temp are usually a couple of points above that. 

Right now I have a couple of 10 packs to go thru that I got from cigarpage.com, last order was Draw Estate Factory smokes sun grown, Curivari Buenaventura Mini BV, Archetype Chapter 2 Axis Mundi, and AJ Fernandez Bellas Artes Maduro. Most of my other stick are the nicer ones that I keep for special occasions Dunbarton, Arturo Fuente, Padron, My Father, and Davidoff. I usually go thru samplers and buy more of what I really like. 

I would say I am full... but I could always get another tupperdor or two haha

no no - you must share with the group!   Or I'm sending you a care package

I'd love to increase my storage but I'm not looking for more tupperdors/coolers/etc.

I'm probably going to move to a cabinet at some point.  nothing huge but something that'll hold all my sticks with a little extra room.

it's just a matter of deciding on what then spending the money on it (this hobby is almost worse than golf!)

I have a 50 count desktop humidor I just restocked with a few sticks. I really like My Father The Judge, Flor de Las Antillas and Fuente Double Chateau. I picked up a Herf-a-dor from CI that came with a 5 pack of La Aroma De Cuba. 

For those Bourbon Lovers, I saw Buffalo Trace brand cigars on Cigars International.com. https://www.cigarsinternational.com/p/buffalo-trace-cigars/2039200/ Let me know if yall have tried one.

I'm never a fan of sticks like that that are gimmicky IMO.   But I have a local guy here who's been smoking longer than many of us have been alive.  His palate is fairly amazing.  He's a BT fan too.  So he went into it with some skepticism.  But he ended up really enjoying them.  It gets me interested enough.  I'll try them at some point for sure
