2021 US Vehicle Dependability Study
Monterey replied to El Presidente's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
If only Cuba had a car. Gas lines would get plugged up. Fuel wouldn't burn right. Certain percent of them would cave in. And then other places would make cars and put Cuba car labels on them and sell them for cheap! -
Your latest CC Purchase?
Monterey replied to JayJay's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
When 1 box just isn't enough. Nov/2020 was a popular month for making these. Probably won't be until Nov/2021 until they make them again. -

And the 2020 CA Cigar of the Year is......
Monterey replied to bundwallah's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
If you read the notes on scoring, it is actually not bad. I hate cigar ratings where 99% is between 85 and 100 (sorry guys). Seems like cigars can easily fall between 1 and 10 where an average cigar elsewhere is an 85. -

No. They clearly have a disclaimer about this situation. In case of a cuban, the winner gets the 2nd (or highest rated non-cuban) -

The last box I saw was Dec/2018, I also know they had 2017 boxes. -
Should I, or shouldn’t I?... 🤔
Monterey replied to Chas.Alpha's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
No way would I break into them. I was also in Cuba around that time and grabbed a cab of them, despite the cab being cut at the start of 2018. They are vacuum sealed away where they belong. Everyone is in a rush these days. Patience pays off. -
Storing habanos at 60 degrees Fahrenheit
Monterey replied to PuroDan's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
Here is what I was referring to. One of the great humidors of the world, ageing away at 54 degrees (12.5C) -
Storing habanos at 60 degrees Fahrenheit

As for your original question, temp at 60 is just fine for ageing. Even temps in the mid 50's is fine for ageing. That is the desired temp for ageing for some in the know.
