I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to cigars right now. I've smoked a few Ashtons (which I loved) and an Arturo Fuente for the time being. My brother-in-law got me on them. They are a joy! Good times. Anyways, I had a few questions regarding cigars and everything about them. I've looked on a lot of websites, but I still had questions, so I came here. Here goes:
1 . Do I still need a humidor when I order a box set of cigars from a website? Do the boxes they come in preserve humidity? Also, some humidors only hold 20, and a lot of boxsets are 25. Are these numbers relative with size? A box set would last me a few months easy.
2. Regarding butane lighters, which one is a good one to get? I'm not cheap, but I also don't feel like throwing more than $20-$30 on a good refillable lighter.
3. I like Ashtons right now, but still have a lot of others on their line to try. I've had an Imperial and Monarch. I believe I can handle mild to medium. Among Ashton users, any great ones to try?
4. If you bought a box set of Ashtons, which would it be? Or are box sets worth it to you?
A beginner asking advice. Thanks
