I've been shopping for over a year for the right one and last night I found her. Something you'll be hard pressed to find on the net and in the smoke shops as they are only given as gifts from the manufacturer, Montecristo.

She holds 200 sticks and is currently under 24 hour watch until humidity peeks and then I'll get to fill'er up.

    I am extremely happy. The other bonus is the color, look and style matches our entire living room so the wife said it puts a nice and finishing touch on the room. Something I never thought I'd hear her say about a humidor.

    Here's a pic of the inside.

    Ron, that's a nice humidor. I've looked at one of those in my local shop and they're nicely made.

    I started smoking cigars a couple of years ago much to the dismay of my wife. So, I keep my humidors at the office and I don't smoke the cigars at home.

    Lately I've been smoking the Fuentes, mainly the Don Carlos line. Are the Montes your cigar of choice?

    They may be illegal here but having a friend whos friend owns a cigar shop who know someone who gets them makes my humidor very happy and right now my new humidor is very happy. The best part, there all free.

    Monte Cristos are a favorite of mine along with; AVO's, Punch, Romeo Y Julieta,...the list could go on. I like a wide varity of smokes. Everything from light to dark, strong to mild. I keep a varity on hand always.

    One thing I love to do is dip my smoke in a nice cognac or brandy. Anyone else?

    Give it a try sometime, just don't go cheap. Enhances the smoking experience.
