Mixing your cigars, N.C.'s & CC.

[laficion]

Hi all ,

I was just looking at everyones theard on where you keep and how you keep your cigars and I was surprised to see

that some of you mix your N.C.'s with your C.C.'s . How many of you do mix ? I for my part  don't mix my cigars

because they have different smells and they are all together different tobaccos. I have different humidors for both.

Do you mix or keep them apart ?

Amicalement,

Guy

I try to keep mine separate, only for the reason that I generally keep NCs at 65RH and CCs at 60RH.  Mixing aromas or flavors does not concern me.  Maybe if the cigars were physically touching, like singles in a humidor, that might be a concern for me.  But I generally keep cigars in their boxes as I store them.

I generally have no problem keeping NC and CC together.  That is probably not entirely unrelated to the fact that I do not smoke flavoured cigars.  It's those that can really bugger up a humidor....

For me, the decisive factor is the RH at which I store my cigars.

I don't mind keeping mine together in the same humidor. I try maintain my RH at 62. Anything flavored is kept separate from non-flavored.

Any NCs are kept in the same humi as my cc, although they are in separate boxes. I don't believe in the flavours mixing just because they are in the same fridge

[ElReyDel757]

Separate for me due the RH being 62 for CC and 69 for NC.

I was just thinking about this very thing this morning.  Mostly they're separate but I have a few intermixed singles.  The bulk of my NCs are in three separate smaller (read two large desktops and a small unplugged wineador) humidors at 68%/70DF.  My CCs are in my two larger cabinet humidors at 60%/70 DF.

I have a wineador in which the top is at 63%rh and the bottom is 67%. Therefore the CCs live on the top and NCs live bottom

I primarily keep my CC's and NC's pretty much separate.  There would be times when I would put particularly high end NC's like Padron 45th Family Anniversaries or some rare to find NC's with my highly prized CC's, but I don't put many in my Daniel Marshal humidor with them. And when or if I do put them in together, I keep the high grade NC's in a corner to themselves, while the bulk of the CC's are all centered and spread out in the humi.

Mine are completely separate Guy... They are as near as the vendor down the street and as far as your house!!! Cheers. -Ray

I keep them together. I've never really noticed flavor transfer issues (though I'm not necessarily sure I WOULD on such a small scale), and I only have a couple of desktop humidors. 

[Bohn007]

I don't keep NC and CC touching next to each other in the cabinet but that is as much as I separate them. The cigars are at 68%Rh right now but dropping that to 65% as I have read more about how much is the correct Rh. Maybe 68% is too much for CC. Going to see how it changes.

I keep them together. i dont think they cross flavour each other at all in my experience.

Fellas I can say with a fair amount of certainty that keeping the smokes together isn't going to transfer any flavor or strength unless there's a flavored cigar in the mix.

Long term aging is somewhat different

[Squarehead]

Some have separate humidors and others are in the same humidor but separated by a divider

[Navistar]

Keeping mine seperated for different humidity

... so who keeps a Kosher kitchen? -LOL

I try to keep similar blends together, but I'm not pedantic about it. I haven't noticed a lot of crossover of flavors or aromas, even amogst some un-celloed Fuente Opus sitting next to some aged Ramon Allones.

[malakai]

I have a wineador and keep the NC and CC on seperate shelves and don't mix the singles together. 

[anacostiakat]

I store mine separately.  The few boxes of NC's I have are in one humi.  Singles I just store in separate sections of the singles drawers.  I don't smoke NC's often and it is more a way of having them in one place than anything else.

[Philc2001]

I tend to keep them in different humidors. Although some of my high-end NCs go into my wineador for space reasons. But I do tend to keep them in separate boxes. However when I think about it I don't do this for any other reason than to keep them organized so I can find them easily. I have no concerns over flavor influences from mixing them.

I keep mine separate, but more out of circumstance than serious intent. I happen to have two humidors and it just seemed like a good idea.
