seasoning a humidor and temp storage questions

[Gabe]

I just smoked the 5 vegas gold, it was alright, but I wouldn't smoke another. I smoked about 3/4 of it, is it ok to put it back in the humidor with the other cigars?

If you would like the others to smell like a wet ashtray, go ahead. I did that once when I started too...never again...

If you didn't like it, just chuck it. It'll taste like poo if you try to smoke it again...

Ok, I figured I shouldn't put it back but wanted to make sure.

I thought it was common to smoke part of a cigar and smoke the rest a day later or something.

Nah. Try to finish a cigar or at least smoke it until you stop enjoying it. That's why most of have cigars of all sizes to fit into the time frame we have to enjoy one. If you try to light it up the next day it is not taste so good. FWIW, I have never been a fan of any of the 5 Vegas line.

it tasted to harsh, I think it was maybe the pepper taste.

Weird. Shouldn't be any pepper in such a mild cigar, but I have noticed a persistent...bitterness?...in these. Just faint, on the back of the tongue. I don't really like them.

I thought it was a bitter pepper that I tasted.

from the cigar.com description:

Do you enjoy mild, smooth cigars? 5 Vegas Gold is a great cigar with ample flavor but is light in strength. It is also light on the wallet with an everyday low price.


5 Vegas Gold has redefined what a mild and smooth cigar should be. The Honduran blend is topped with Connecticut seed wrapper making it a premium of outstanding quality. The 5 year old long filler tobacco will melt in your mouth as this cigar brings out subtle nut and wood flavors. The cigar gives a healthy dose of flavor with a mild to medium body giving it a unique short finish with hints of pepper.
The only thing more unique than the aroma might just be its packaging, which boasts a "gold bar" shaped box housing 20 expertly-rolled cigars. All this at a price that can't be beat. Even with all the hype about full bodied cigars, mild is still king and after smoking a 5 Vegas Gold you will see why.
