No flavored coffee in my machines and no flavored cigars in my humidors. Keeps life simple. LOL

:-) I agree. That was my first and last experience with flavoured beans. There was an article in Roast magazine on coffee roasters that produce flavoured beans. They require a separate room as the aroma drifts and effects regular coffee.

Do they make flavored cigars that require storage? Most of them just sit in a wrapper till they get smoked.

That makes sense.

I've had some beans sitting to close to flavored stuff that taste off. I blame it on people who love Snicker-doodle, like my Dad.

Austin, those are the sh*tty cigars they sell at gas stations. The ones that kids roll into blunts. The higher grade flavored cigars do require humidification, but I still wouldn't introduce them into my cigar stash. Some of those cigars give off very powerful odors. Kind of like that coffee someone described.

I have the a top feed so I shake as well.

The grinder has a profound affect on the taste of espresso. Pour over is less grind sensitive but it still matters.

I've never had one then.

I enjoy a good cigar and have had some cigarillos that require a humidor but smoke them to fast to get them in there.
