What's in your humidor?
One winedor filled with a combination of cedar trays and plastic bins. Couldn’t fit two cedar trays side-by-side. Each shelf has one tray and one bin. Each tray or bin is 2-3 layers deep, or until I can’t slide the tray onto the shelf any longer (4 layers?)
A lot of singles; mostly Cigar Federation / Ezra Zion as I subscribe to multiple COTM in addition to 20 or so “Boutique Seconds”, unlabeled cigars I pick up about every month or so for under $5 each. I smoke these as fillers when I have a second or third of the day or when I don’t want to choose.
One tupperador overflow (full). Need to dig out a cooler. One MF box half filled with random MF cigars.
The winedor is not very organized. I tried to keep similar lines together in a tray/bin but doesn’t stay that way as I shuffle around. It’s a Tetris game with new arrivals.
I have one 100 count humidor in my winedor taking up one shelf with about 50-75 or so. Mostly AF, DTT, and a few other higher end or unique, well aged or last of its kind cigars. One small lower section contains a handful of CCs.
I supplement with B&M purchases that are almost all singles, typically never more
than 2 of a specific cigar. These are usually around 20-25 at a time so I get the box discount price. They count any 20 cigars as a ‘box’.
Prominent lines are BWS/BLTC, one bin of mostly CH. Others are RomaCraft, Viaje.
Having options is good, but sometimes a burden. Hard to make a choice.
I rarely buy boxes.
Estimated at about 400-500 currently as I am not smoking as much since it is cooler and dark in the eves.
Additionally I have about 20-50 mini cigars/ Tins I keep in a ziploc bag in my desk drawer at work for smoking breaks. I also like to keep a tin or two in my car for commuting time.

Lookin good Mark. It's cool that your locals give box discounts on purchases of multiple singles. I don't think I had ever seen your setup, it's lookin good!
I would love to see

Just got back in town from Thanksgiving. I used to have an old gun cabinet I lined with Spanish Cedar that I used for years but I out grew it when I went stockpiling before my son was born. I don’t think I’ve ever shared this but since Steve asked. I’ve got a 48x36x24 cabinet I ordered from Bob Staebell in 2015. Lives in my guest bedroom and is Temp and humidity controlled.





Other than some rare Fuentes, I haven’t bought cigars in years thanks to my slowdown in consumption. It needs a reorganization. All the ziplock bags on top are for an extra layer of humidity balance. For a while, it was so stuffed the top got a little more humid than the rest. Then, when I moved the last time a couple years ago, I just never unbagged them.

I much prefer wooden humidors for the classier look I believe good cigars deserve, but have gone to all tupperdors a while ago as they are just too perfect in every way for cigars.

I love the wood too. The way it smells when you open that thing is intoxicating. Even my wife who doesn't smoke cigars loves to smell that cabinet.

Yeah, the 6ftx6ft China cabinet I converted into a humidor always smelled awesome. Spanish Cedar and tobacco..Yum!
In the spring when I clean out my storage unit 6 hours from here and donate nearly everything to charity since I have no use for it, I'm hoping to bring back the cabinet for my room. Not sure if it will fit and still meet the requirement of having enough room for a stretcher to be brought in if needed.
May have to leave the base with drawers and small cabinets behind to make it fit, plus its extremely heavy and I doubt me and my sister could carry it..
Just the upper humidor portion would be fine alone
Would be awesome to have again
