How long ago did you get them? What rH do you keep your sticks at?
			
		 
	 
 
Got those around 2 months ago maybe 3. First in the tupper with 65% bovedas the last 3 weeks in the cooler at 62-64 rh. It's the second Crux I've tried the first one was the Bill and Bear( i think thats the name) and it was in the B&M for like 3 years the owner pointed it out when i asked about aged sticks. He didn't charge any extra thank god. Because that one i didnt care for either. Maybe they just ain't my thing. The first one smoked fine i just didn't dig it. This one was just seriously plugged.
Ya know I've been keeping the cello on all my gars that come wrapped. Those have been the ones giving me trouble lately, while the uncelloed sticks have been smoking perfectly. Might have ta remove that packing material from the rest of the stash. Who knows ?

							A non-BOTL friend at work gave me a little wooden box of 4 Don Ruperto cigars, which he had received as a gift and stuck in his closet a couple years ago. About six months ago, I was at his desk, and somehow (?!) we got on the subject of cigars. I'm semi-famous in his building as the guy who rolls his own cigars. Anyway, he remembered that he had these cigars in his closet and gave them to me. They were dry as a bone of course, so I promptly administered humidor therapy.

FFWD to today, I'm trying the first one out, with approx. 6 months of rehabilitation. It's not bad, but I think it's still a little dry - I'll try another in 6 months or so. I hope they're not the point of no return!
I don't know anything about this brand, but I think it's Dominican. Tastes Dominican anyway, outside of being a little too dry. I dig the barber pole wrapper - I've never worked up the ambition to try that myself.
