El Presidente Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 Welcome to: "Snapshot Snippets: Cigar Edition." I post a photo. Members can post one "snippet" of information on the photo "one only" otherwise the post will be deleted. Each piece of information receives a ticket into a sampler draw once the thread is considered to be completed. One post per member on any thread. This stops Alex Groom from winning The objective? To "deep dive" the item in question. Delve every nook and cranny for relevent information (as determined by mods) that moves the needle in further illuminating to the photo in question. You will quiclky get the hang of it ! Let's kick off with the following photo. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevieboy Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 I think this was Spain only IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakey Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Looks like the Western Europe Short Churchill humidor. CCW says a 2011 release but I’m not going to disagree with @ATGroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This box was brought up in a different group a few years ago where they got an answer from Tabacalera directly, so I'd go with their answer (which was May 2009). Originated from Spain, although they did get around a bit. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But perhaps that was just the Spanish overrun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, that plastic thingy costs bugger all and you can call the box a “humidor”… Inflates the size of the box, as does the wooden spacer included, so looking more impressive (see New Gold Medal…). Bonus to boot – it’s completely dysfunctional anyway, like in other humidor boxes and jars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short Churchills tubo case. 2011 release, Western Europe. @Cigar Surgeon you may be right—it has a humidifier, no seal though… but WAIT, maybe when you humidify Tubos the green foam has some magic power of penetrating the Tube..may be a great @PigFish experiment-how does a green foam block react to opening a non-sealed case, when metal Tubos are inside… 🤯 …🤔… **NO ENTRY intended, feel free to delete if I’m breaking rules 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
