If uploading from a mobile phone and the image is oriented correctly on said phone, then make an edit prior to uploading. Maybe crop the sides or somehing. You can edit your post and upload the edited photo and delete the inverted one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post joeypots Posted March 26, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 26, 2018 MC double Robusto, ROM DIC 16. Nice box of cigars, or as our host said, Quote THESE ARE GEMS BLESSED BY THE CIGAR GODS. Rich Montecristo flavours (milk coffee/cocoa/bitter chocolate) will abound. Kinda remind me of my old buddy, the Avo #2, but these don't smell like a Connecticut shade wrapped Dominican. There was a time that I thought 50 RG X 6" was the perfect cigar size. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take a picture you know you are going to post, take it with the phone camera oriented verticaly, top to bottom. Like your home button is on the bottom. Then crop it. If you snap horizontally or with the home button on the top, the devise will correct the image and it'll post side ways or upside down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MooseAMuffin Posted March 26, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 26, 2018 Got my first box of 898s. From our host. Never had a box come in cardboard. I'm guessing I remove the cardboard and only put the wood box in my humidor? 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally ditch the cardboard, but double check the code is also on the bottom of the box. I ended up raiding my own bins at 6am on the day of rubbish collection, after realising there was no code on the bottom the box. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally just scribble the code on the bottom with a marker pen. But then I don’t trade boxes. I guess if you want to trade down the line, keeping the cardboard is a safer bet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a flipper could do a cardboard swap and date some sticks older than they are. How long do you like to age your 898s? I'm pulling 5 out and sitting the rest for at least 6 months.

I’ve only got one box - AUM FEB 14 - an HQ from our host. Every time I dip back in, they are better. And they were pretty darn good ROTT. I plan to smoke this box over the next few years. I’m a sporadic smoker, so probably not the best guy to ask, but I was advised to be patient with 898s, as their scope for improvement is very good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
