Airport duty free is almost always a bad idea. I simply do not trust their humidification.

Having said that, if it's slow and you get a permissive clerk, and they let you hunt for ages stock...

Are you saying this based on experience (if so, which one(s)?) or just repeating what you hear?

Damn. I read the airport name as a meme expression.

O Rlly?

I have no experience with PO as I always fly sfo-cdg. However, last summer cdg had no regionals and their humidification is jacked up. Sticks I bought and took on to Africa were totally out of balance as far as RH. Took 6 months in my humidor to get the sticks smoking right. I'll never spend money there again unless I find some type of aged unicorn. I guess in a round about way I'm saying I'd be surprised if orly gas them and cdg does not.

I do not trust Orly re: storage. Much better stock quality, rnge & service at CDG.

Even better in Amsterdam....!

I will say I got an absolutely fantastic Punch Punch at a local B&M after lunch at le comptoir du relais. You can find great cigars in the City, just won't give my money to the airport.

Btw - were you saying you had the same experience or different?
