Err 80-90ish something like that. You could fit more than the 125 listed in there but it would be a bit of a lucky dip.

Humidity had stayed static long enough for me so I thought why not

Yeah 53eur shipped brand new, it was in their B grade stock but that was just due to a damaged cardboard box, they put it in a second for shipping anyway and box was straight in the bin.

They?ve sold out right now but if you keep an eye on the link here they regularly have bargains including my bigger one down to just over ?100. They don?t seem to sell anything with more than the tiniest amount of damage either and you can email them to ask condition

They?re currently selling the unit from standard stock at 65eur in the sale

I picked up the same one at about the same time, came without an original box and slight chip out of the hygrometer bezel. But other than that... nothing else to see really. Great deal and quick delivery from Germany. Definitely worth keeping an eye on their B stock

So this was my recent holiday haul, had to be fairly well behaved but I?m pretty pleased with my additions. Trying to focus on smaller sticks as my collection lacks them and especially with the colder months coming;







Glad I picked up the 54s in a physical shop as this was the 5th box I went through to find a decent box the QC on the rest was very poor.



Had asked for Perlas but I wasn?t paying attention so he gave me panetellas extras, let?s hope I like these!



Little bit of age on these but not much





Picked up a box and a few extras to refill the box id already started, as for ?7 a stick they are one of my favourites. Every shop in Spain seems to have endless boxes of these so I?m sure I?ll be after another box or three.

Then picked up some singles too!

Had to finish this box, cause well why wouldn?t you!





This lot have all got at least 10 years on them, really looking forward to some more aged smokes as I?ve not experienced many yet. Intrigued by the Monte too as I haven?t been a massive fan of the others I?ve tried. Hopefully a decade helps.



Some cheap shorter smokes to see how these are;



And lastly when in Andorra you may as well pick up some of their REs!

The envy is strong right now! As someone who's never bought from a B&M (home or abroad), how do you go about finding the aged stuff? Do most shops have them? Or do you have to ask for them and expect to pay more? Cant wait to get on a plane somewhere warm to enjoy a few myself

Those are some solid additions! Still to try a QdO 54, next on my list of new ones to try, loved the 50.

I?m intrigued by the QdO?s too I?ve not tried them before either but those 50?s particularly are beautiful, only a few months on them though and know they?re meant to be good fresh but that seems very fresh!

There will be others on here with much more experience than me but at a proper cigar shop that clearly knows their stock I just ask about what they?ve got but admittedly I haven?t had much luck that way. This aged stock was all from little tobacconists in Barcelona though which just meant getting in their humidor and flipping boxes, if you make clear you?re planning on buying a bit they don?t seem to mind and I just got locked in a couple while I looked!

Nice! Wherever I go, I'll be on the lookout for some tobacconists away form the usual LCDH stores. Good hunting either way [emoji106]
