We live in an apartment in a small city. The neighbors frown on bonfires (and virgin sacrifices). Who knew?

Has there been any discussion about storing your butane lighters in your humi with your cigars?
My concern is lighters (cheap or expensive they all do it) leaking butane into the humi and damaging the flavor of the cigars. Are there any thoughts, experiences or research on this subject?

I'm not sure this is true, I have left lighters for 8-12 months and picked them up and not had any fuel leakage.
:-) Over the years I have never had a problem with a lighter leaking. But I do not store lighters in my humidors, there is no room. But I often put one in my traveldors.

Thanks for posting this, this is a great place to ask the beginner questions this site has so much knowledge it is kind of scary!:-)

I thought it might be a good place consolidate commonly asked questions instead of finding old threads

Thanks for the info - I've heard some bad stories about Thompson. Sounds like if you guys got their catalogs without buying their someone sold them your address...happens. I'll keep poking and see if I can avoid the temptation to save a buck or two every once in awhile.

I see people keep their cellophane on their sticks when they put them in their humi. Advantages to this?

Personal preference. Whatever you choose is fine.
Cellophane is nice if you need to touch them everyday or for travel protection.

Keeping the cello on can prevent your cigars from rubbing together as you move them around. But whether to keep it on or not is mainly a personal choice. Some cigars do not come with cello so I usually leave them as they are packaged from the manufacturer.

Also, there is a wealth of information in the stickies at the top of each forum section.

Aside from the other answers I have read in a few places that cigars age at a slower rate or something of the sort. Don't quote me on this though and no Nickerson comments please.

That "information" is out there, but it's really more of a theory from some people based on their personal perceptions and alleged experiences than it is a proven fact there Nicker...errr, Mario.
:-)
It's also one of those things that gets repeated over and over on websites because people often just copy info from other places that have it without really changing or even thinking about anything (much like the oft repeated flavor marrying myth)

Is there some kind of holder for a cigar when getting down to the last 2-3 inches?
