Don't be shy. It's not like that! I don't even come close. But I think I'm smaller than you!

[emoji16] easily drawn out. Still waiting for @Alexw33 or is he waiting for a name check...

We just do love some cigar porn.

Alex, the entire forum waits for this. No pressure.

Where’s Henrik?

This will happen to you Max. To some degree or other. You have been forewarned.

I see some amazing collections.. My question is how do you keep your stash below 20 degrees? Even in the summer?

Taking 1523 photos. It takes a while to photograph his stash......

I am very much looking forward to the mystery man making an appearance..... Sounds like he has quite the collection.

Don?t think any of us worry about temperature, indoor U.K. temp is fine for cigars all year round

As above. Some of the time you don't. Just make sure all your stash has gone through official channels. Or you freeze it yourself. Or both.

And manage the humidity.

Agreed. Temp used to be a worry that beetles/ Cigar Weevils would hatch, if you freeze everything when you receive it, that eliminates the threats; just don't store in direct sunlight.

This is news to me as a beginner! You literally put the cigars in the freezer?! [emoji3063]

I guess this is something you do for peace of mind when purchasing cigars from unverified sources? Interesting!

Also... Simon, I was reading your thread about your cruise, sounds like a fun adventure. Updates still coming? [emoji3]

Hi Max, Not just straight in the freezer! The usual recommended procedure are to wrap in cling film or put in zip lock bags so they don't dry out or get freezer burn. 2 days fridge, 3 days in freezer, 2 days fridge. I just do this when buying in Cuba (they only freeze export stock) or buying from non Habanos official outlets. But I would recommend freezing stocks from Spain as I have seen weevils on the shelves & the owners didn't seem worried at all. Check the boxes for damage & then freeze.
Yes, I was just thinking this morning I haven't posted about my cruise, will work on compressing my photos so I can attach them.
