Default Re: Starting my collection soon.

When I started getting serious about cigars I bought a lot of samplers from CI and from FSS (Famous Smoke Shop). I smoked a ton of sizes, strengths, different countries of origin, wrapper, etc. It won't take you long before you start to know what you like and what you don't.

And if you haven't done so yet, I recommend signing up for the Asylum's Newbie Sampler Trade. That's another great way to try some different smokes.

As for storage, you don't need to get fancy with humidors or wineadors when your budget is an issue. Get a large tupperware container or two and a couple of Boveda packs and you're all set.

Ok I will look into this, I have heard people saying they use Tupperware but I don't know what Boveda packs are, I am sure when I find a Tupperware post I will learn what it is, thank you for the feedback!

They are for humidification, they will help keep your cigars at a certain humidity range.
