What's in your humidor?

[jrfoxx]

Thanks Tony. That's one heck of a collection of cigars. And the organization to keep track is equally impressive. Thanks for posting this.

Agreed.
Extremely nice setup and lots of storage in temperature and rh controlled winedors.

Fortunately, I don't live anywhere that I have to worry about controlling the temperature as my room at the veterans home facility stays at a pretty constant 68deg year round without even using my heat or a/c, just from the well climate controlled building my room is in.

Only have to worry about rh since Wyoming is pretty dry year round, but Bovedas in tupperdors keeps perfect rh for me.

I love the glass fronts on a cabinet, endtable, tupperdor or winedor, as I enjoy being able to see my cigars, especially with the amount of money tied up in them, lol

Really wish the glass door, 6ftx6ft, cabinet humidor on a large base with 2 small cabinets and several drawers in the roughy 4ftx6ft base it sits on I built out of a used, 1970's curio cabinet here. It was fun to convert, and cheap and easy to do and worked perfectly. .

Unfortunately it's in a storage unit 6hrs away with all the other contents of the house I was renting, and really would just take up to much space if it even fit at all, in my relatively small room at the veterans home.

Plus I doubt I could get a rule exception for it, as we aren't allowed to store anything on the floor, or have any additional furniture, especially if it encroaches on the bed, as we are required to have enough room to get a stretcher in, in the event something happens. It took repeated requests to be able to have my two 74qt containers in the corner of the room since I proved to them it didn't interfere with getting a stretcher in.
@WNYTONY

How many cigars do yours hold?

Did you add the drawers yourself, or are they one of the custom made winedors?

Regardless, very nice setup and i assume, stash inside.

I image you spent some serious coin for them, as I have looked at stock winedors, and custom made ones just for fun, and they quite expensive, but I understand that in some environments they are very necessary and you just have to bite the bullet to protect your stash.

One winedor filled with a combination of cedar trays and plastic bins. Couldn’t fit two cedar trays side-by-side. Each shelf has one tray and one bin. Each tray or bin is 2-3 layers deep, or until I can’t slide the tray onto the shelf any longer (4 layers?)
A lot of singles; mostly Cigar Federation / Ezra Zion as I subscribe to multiple COTM in addition to 20 or so “Boutique Seconds”, unlabeled cigars I pick up about every month or so for under $5 each. I smoke these as fillers when I have a second or third of the day or when I don’t want to choose.
One tupperador overflow (full). Need to dig out a cooler. One MF box half filled with random MF cigars.

The winedor is not very organized. I tried to keep similar lines together in a tray/bin but doesn’t stay that way as I shuffle around. It’s a Tetris game with new arrivals.

I have one 100 count humidor in my winedor taking up one shelf with about 50-75 or so. Mostly AF, DTT, and a few other higher end or unique, well aged or last of its kind cigars. One small lower section contains a handful of CCs.
I supplement with B&M purchases that are almost all singles, typically never more
than 2 of a specific cigar. These are usually around 20-25 at a time so I get the box discount price. They count any 20 cigars as a ‘box’.

Prominent lines are BWS/BLTC, one bin of mostly CH. Others are RomaCraft, Viaje.
Having options is good, but sometimes a burden. Hard to make a choice.

I rarely buy boxes.
Estimated at about 400-500 currently as I am not smoking as much since it is cooler and dark in the eves.
Additionally I have about 20-50 mini cigars/ Tins I keep in a ziploc bag in my desk drawer at work for smoking breaks. I also like to keep a tin or two in my car for commuting time.

Ok Steve - I finally got around to doing this for you. Though I must admit I was a little curious as to how the numbers have changed.

First off, a pic of my "humidor". Not a nice fancy walk in like TJ has but it serves my purpose.



3 Wineadors, and 2 big coolers in the rack. I also have a half sized cooler and 6-8 small tuppers.

I use a spreadsheet so I can keep my inventory straight and that allows me to easily look at the numbers as a whole.

I show 544 lines on my spreadsheet - each line is a unique cigar, by size. Some are duplicates, meaning I was bombed something I already has in stock.
Taking that in to account, I'd say when I go to choose a cigar I have roughly 500 choices as to what to smoke. I like variety and it may be months until I go back to something, but I like having choices. I tend to buy, as we all do, very economically and pick up a few big samplers a year as well so having the storage to be able to handle a 100 stick purchase helps alot.

The breakdown of the top brands in my stock looks like this:

Crowned Heads / Pichardo - 30.6% of my inventory. Knew this was now #1 and the gap had gotten larger with all their recent releases
Tatuaje / L'Atelier - 13.2%
Warped - 5.3%
HVC - 3.7%
Caldwell - 3.7%
Black Label Trading - 3.2%
Viaje - 2.0%

So there you have it. Proof that I am a verified Crowned Heads whore !

Do you use Pivot Tables with your cigar inventory data-sheet?

Lookin good Mark. It's cool that your locals give box discounts on purchases of multiple singles. I don't think I had ever seen your setup, it's lookin good!

I would love to see @jhedrick83 share some pics.

[jrfoxx]

Not the fanciest or prettiest setup, but all are airtight and hold perfect rh, and are relatively inexpensive, so it works well for me.

Is that an empty spot on the bottom left humi?

[Ciro]

Another empty humi!!!

[Ciro]

I really don't have any specific type of cigars all over the place with origin and flavors. Have lost count of how many I have. Just like Ryan, @Tombstone , whenever I see a sale I buy. Unfortunately I don't smoke anywhere near as many sticks as I buy. Thank God I find empty humidors here and there that I can assist with.

I put those MAW you sent in there and it was only empty because we smoked the shit out of it at my party. It went from filled to that in a few hours.

@Nature Mark can I make a suggestion? I started out with the plastic trays but felt they made my humidor look cheap. I use these metal trays that are coated with plastic from the $1.25 tree. I have seen them in a few sizes. They hold a decent amount but give more airflow to the cigars and in my opinion look better. They stack 2 high pretty easy if small rg they can do 3 maybe. Just a thought
