Finally Got em in

After what seemed like a long agonizing wait, I finally got my box of cubans in on the hottest day of the year which sucks. Everything looks good accept the fact that the box was opened and the box doesnt shut flush but I will be inspecting them further and putting them right into my humi which is sitting at 73% and 68*.

Re: Finally Got em in

Mine just came in today also. Same thing with the box being banged up. Do yours smell like a barn? Maybe its Hay? Whatever it is I can't wait to try one.

Re: Finally Got em in

Why the shark is your humi at 73% RH, when I sent you 65% RH beads?

Re: Finally Got em in

nice grab! IMHO Bolivars are one of the best "out of the box" great smokes, needing less time then some other habanos. anyone else notice this?

My hygro is only 1% off. I think the seal on my humi isnt the best even though the flashlight test reveals no leaks. Plus its been so damn humid here I dont think that helps any. The code on the bottom of the box says DIC05 but there is some writing in red on the green republica de cuba that reads HJ 140695. What might that be? I was thinking about letting them go in the freezer but decided not to since the temp in my humi is at 68* constant.
