GoatLocker Posted September 3, 2005 Posted September 3, 2005 I have a 400 ct footlocker 120 quart cooler 200 ct desktop 150 ct desktop 2 tupperwares and a 42 bottle wine cooler that's not filled..... yet. I'm thinking it might be easier to just convert my bar/office into a walk-in humidor.
jjwright Posted September 4, 2005 Posted September 4, 2005 90 quart cooler 75 ct desktop 25 ct travel humidor Keep about 200 cigars on hand, 50% Cuban.
Echeck Posted September 5, 2005 Posted September 5, 2005 I have a converted 42 bottle Haier wine cooler. I keep about 15 boxes of havanas in there, and around 15 bottles of wine in it. Im gonna need to move my wine to an offsite wine locker, since some of my wine purchases will be coming in soon.

El Rushbo Posted September 5, 2005 Posted September 5, 2005 Unfortunately, I'm still on no. 1. It's a 120 ct. glass top. Right now it's about 75 % full, less than half of which are cuban. I"M TRYING TO RECTIFY THE MATTER AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE:-)
Spud2 Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 I've only got a touch of the madness, 100 count humidor for singles and 120 Qt for boxes (2/3 cuban).
harwellplant Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 an aristocrat end table at the house, top for singles and bottom for boxes and aging. one of jj's beautiful humidors at my main office, and another desktop at our satellite office. life is too short to be unprepared.
ironman Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 I have an Avallo 2000, awesome humidor!!! An Antietam end table humi, a Victorian Table Humidor and a small El Presidente glass desktop, along with many travel humi's:-) Ironman
genevapics Posted January 26, 2006 Posted January 26, 2006 Regarding the desktops... what are you folks using to humidify your humidors? Beads, Credos, other passive units. Thanks in advance. Myself, I own a 50 count desktop, but in the process of purchasing a 300 count desktop.

I have a 55-bottle wine chiller that holds about 25-30 boxes and a 300 count desktop humi - both pretty full. I have to shuffle boxes to accomodate new purchases. I use beads for both - and would never use anything else. For larger cabinets than my fridggeador, I might add some active humidification (Cigar Oasis), but beads are still necessary for humidity removal in my area in the summer.

Right now I have two desktop humidors 50 and 100 count for my singles and keep my boxes in 2 tupperdors. I am working towards a wine cooler or cabinet humidor. I have about 200 cigars on hand but I try to keep my anual purchases below 1% of my anual salary. So far so good..
Mel Posted January 26, 2006 Posted January 26, 2006 I am just finishing another box that measures 16x24x12 Black Walnut with Zebrawood top and shoe mold trim. I use florist foam to carry distilled water and Propleneglycol mounted in carriers that match hardware and box design. I hope to get 9-12 boxes in there. I am considering going to a walk in closet unit.
waldo Posted January 26, 2006 Posted January 26, 2006 I have a 1200 ct cabinet and a smaller 250 ct. Not much storage compared to some people I know.

Damn - I'm happy when it isn't approaching 10 % :-D
billyburg Posted January 26, 2006 Posted January 26, 2006 Reading these post gives me cigar envy! I have a small frigador w/ 9 partial boxes- about 150 sticks and a 100 count desk top w/ 75.
Alioud Posted January 26, 2006 Posted January 26, 2006 I currently have 4 Large humidors from Aristocrat Humidors, each holds around 3000-4000 Cigars, and they are so full I can't add 1 cigar to any of them. I have 16 Small sized humidors holding from 150 ct to 500ct and they are almost full. That's my home collection. Believe me, that's not too much. I smoked around 2000 Cigars last year... My collection won't hold for 10 years if I stop adding more cigars to it. If you plan to buy an Aristocrat Humidor, you might want to think about buying a Brownie Humidor (Switzerland) instead. I think it's better.
The Privateer Posted January 26, 2006 Posted January 26, 2006 I have a 50 bottle wine chiller with about 30 boxes and a 40-count daily smokes humidor. A few large tupperware boxes lying around with non-Cuban boxes. Total of 800 sticks maybe. Small fry...but working on it ;-)
cfheater Posted January 27, 2006 Posted January 27, 2006 I have one big humidor with about 20 boxes in it I am trying to add 1 box a month but lately it's been more. Best part is I've had a cold and haven't touched a stick in almost 2 weeks
Jimmy2 Posted January 27, 2006 Posted January 27, 2006 Alioud you must own a couple of oil fields ;-) $$$$$ nice count of cigars must be a nice sight to see.
rbrotmd Posted January 27, 2006 Posted January 27, 2006 As I'm fairly new to cigar czarism, I have only 2 humidors (a 100 and a 50) filled with 135 sticks.
El Presidente Posted January 27, 2006 Posted January 27, 2006 Alioud....I assume you are not married Nice collection. Which are the cigars you reach for more often than not....ie the top 5 cigars you smoke?
