So I have been playing cigar tetris every time I get a new cigar or go searching for a cigar. 8years ago when I bought my end table humidor it was perfect but now like many of my clothes it's a but too confining.
Been searching the old interwebs and found a few options this one was too much this was too far away. Saw a great deal but would have needed to drive like 5 hrs 1 way to pick up.
Couple weeks ago I saw a posting for an Aristocrat humidor but the price was still more than I could talk my wife into. But she finally willingly agreed and I drove to Dallas and back for this.
So I know what not to do. I still have not fully loaded it up yet but it's much less tetris on initial fill. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230607/6eff6e80ecc63febae21af1f5477467e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230607/b2174b258bcd769cf9475f5455ad37c8.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230607/77cd44ff8cb86350e16c67e331bee7bb.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230607/8fbc2692058885d8362aa93976a48989.jpg

So an update since it now has power cooling and fans work now its getting it where I want. The hygrometer is off considerably but using my xikar it is running between 66 and68 degrees. I have it set to cool around 75 and to heat somewhere in the 50s. Rh is currently 67-69 I wouldn't mine the rh to be 1-2% lower but not concerned with this range. I don't think it runs much which is what I want, set and not worry.
I toy with the idea of running some leds or even some name plates for a couple shelves. I want to organize more but during football that is not happening. I have also considered getting some wooded trays and burning bums names on them but that messes up my organization if I put all brands together. While my cigar budget is still light my only regret is I don't spend more time just smelling those great tobacco and Spanish cedars smells more.
