It was a Gran Toro (6.0x52).

As for the cost, that's NY for you...

Pissed me off as I paid $13 for it, to try and see if I liked the Undercrown line, and it was one of the worst smokes I've ever had.

Well usually if it's so wet it's going out on you, it's not going to taste very good either. I wouldn't write them off because of this. Shame you wasted 13 bucks on it tho. You can get them online for a lot less

Ohh I know I can them for a lot less online, but I saw it in the shop and I wanted to try the line before I stocked up on them.

It spent close to four months in my humidor at 67-68% before I smoked it.

I'm pretty happy keeping some of my cigars at 62%, and some at 65%. Although lately I've aired out my 62% OXOdor, since some of the sticks came in wetter than 62%, and the Boveda pack couldn't absorb anymore moisture.

Yeah, I'm starting to play around with "dry boxing" some of my cigars. I set up one of my old humidors for around 64% and I am letting a few that I know I want to smoke fairly soon chill out for a bit.
