I've said this before - but this is just a reminder. I'll be breaking BOTL over time in order to get it into a far better place. Just be patient if you can't reach us! We'll be back
I get stopped occasionally (1 in 30 flights), they just look at it. I've traveled with Xikar Xi, Palió, MTX, Wolf V, Xikar XV, traditional guillotine.
Soft flame lighters, also allowed, just be prepared to be stopped every time through TSA.
I take Dan's word as truth:
-He's already worked with Viaje, including a NHC exclusive

Surrogates is a regular production cigar. I think it's very clear that this is not a Viaje, nor from Raíces nor My Father. Even if Dan hadn't put that info out, making regular production store exclusives doesn't seem to be...
Unlike the Donkey Droppings which were hush hush as "Viaje seconds" or what have you, these aren't Viajes in any shape or form.

The Lancero used to be the cool cigar (and still is to an extent) because bundles were hardly ever, that seems to have changed a bit. Bundles are in most of the time, but at no where close to the...
The reason why Spanish cedar is recommended is exactly what you have found. It absorbs humidity better and doesn't have as strong of an aroma.
Lining a cooler isn't a necessity, particularly if you are using beads or some other active humidification system and trays or beads. Personally I just...
