My Wife DOES love the Humi and HAS mentioned .......one that matched Her Stickley furniture in cherry, WOULD be nice. Unfortunately she is not aware of the CO$T. I Fear she thinks they are $200.

I'm working on it though. Would allow me to store more Reserva #7's !!

Anyone interested in a small trade? One or two each of the 6 year Premier Rosado toro, Grafitti, ARS Gigante Corojo, and Corojo Superiore for an an equal amount of the reserve #7 Blend?

Thanks. I'm fairly new here and will ship first.

I ordered a bundle of the Robusto reserva #7's last week. Two questions: How long does it usually take to arrive in the mail, it's been 7 days so far. Second, I read a lot about how aging these cigars improve the taste. How long do you recommend to age these cigars before I smoke them?

I bought a wheel of these banded them myself and gave them out to celebrate my daughters birth. It was a nice balance of not handing out a crap cigar but also not paying 3.00$+ a stick for a AF curly head in a tube that says it's a girl. I also liked it because the band was totally personalized.

IMO a good six months. However before you smoke them definitely dry box them for a good 7-14 days. If your CFO is soft and squishy don't smoke it. Seriously dry it until its hard... at this point you can still see the oils on the wrapper but the cigar takes on a rock hard feeling. They smoke and taste so much better.

Mine took three to four weeks and I had to call them. They mean well and seem like good people, but really slow. But from what I hear, they will need to rest a while anyway. So when they do show, it will still be some time before smoking. Just my .
