I just found some old photos of my cigar humidor from back in the day. The humidor itself was 88" high by 51" wide by 29" deep. It was humidity controlled and temperature controlled. It was completely lined in spanish cedar and weighed 686 pounds empty. It had two large drawers and would suck up a gallon of distilled water every week. In that picture there is approximately 3000 cigars in it and 98 percent were Cuban. In the two drawers were rare and one of a kind stuff. Some I had made for myself when I was in Cuba and there were many one of a kind Opus X that were given to me by Carlito Fuente. I look at my recent TAD and PAD behavior and think how much more I used to spend than I do now.

I've been there. Not quite to that extreme but I definitely used to have a heck of a collection at one point.
It's weird sometimes looking at my four desktop humidors, one cooler, and my piles of tins and mason jars knowing that it's only a fraction of the insanity I once had about tobacco hording.

@ msandoval, quite the disease we have huh? lol
@ photoman, anyone can go on line and buy Cuban cigars. You just have to know who the best tobacconists are. I have sources in Switzerland, Spain, Hong Kong, Beirut, Australia and Gilbralter. All of these are world renowned tobacconists who have been selling Cuban cigars for decades.
Thanks guys for all the nice comments.

@ johnnyxpipe, yes those are Cuban cigars shaped like pipes. My supplier in Beirut knew I was into pipes so he had them made for me. They were pretty cool.
