How to keep flavored cigars from cross-contaminating?
This question is for all you cigar connoisseurs out there. As many of you are aware, when storing flavored cigars you are supposed to keep them in a separate humidor from unflavored ones to prevent the flavors from sticking to the unflavored. I was wondering recently though, if you store various flavored cigars in the same humidor, wouldn’t their flavors all affect each other? I am just wondering if I would have to buy separate small humidors for each individual flavored cigar, or if I could keep all flavored in one humidor. Thanks.

Storing Flavored Cigars with normal cigars?
I am pretty new to smoking cigars, and I know it is not ok to store them together but getting multiple humidors is not really an option for me right now. Is there someway I can store them together for a fairly long time (and I dont mean aging them long)?
(And no Anti smoking BS)
Like putting the flavored ones in air tight cigar tubes or something

Where is your preferred website to buy cigars from? Thompson, JR Cigar, Cigars International, Famous smoke?
I’ve never bought cigars online before. Ive looked into it a little and some of the bigger companies like Thompson, Cigars International, Famous Smoke and JR Cigars. Ive tried to look into what the peoples opinions of these sites are but it looks like every blog and review site is at least over 2 years old if not older (some from 2005). So anything negative could have been fixed and anything positive could have been fumbled by the company for any number of reasons.
So does anyone have any current experience with any of these companies? Good bad or indifferent.
A little fact for those looking for a little info is that for the CAO Gold Cigars for example the prices for a 5 pack are as follows
Famous Smoke: CAO Gold Corona .99
JR Cigars: CAO Gold Corona or Robusto .75-.25
Cigar International: CAO Gold Robusto .50
Thompson Cigar: CAO Gold Robusto/Maduro Robusto .95-.95
Now obviously theres a difference between Robusto and Corona. Basically a matter of girth. But you can see the trend there. Also this is just one instance maybe another brand or bulk will be better for a different company.
But what im wondering is some facts about customer service, speed of delivery, quality of packing, other items they offer such as humidors and also opinions on house brands. I know thompson has its own. Also I believe JR also has its own what i call "Mimic sticks" that are similar to other brands. Kind of like the Generic Brand of Coca Cola. Basically the same but different, you know what i mean.
Oh and one thing ive been wondering is why do some companies Like Famous smoke require buyers to be only 18 and Thompson says 19 in their catalogue and Cigar International says 21? That kind of set off a red flag to me, i mean im 25 so it doesnt matter to me either way and to save money im not opposed to straddle legal definitions. But whats with the strange age requirements, does that speak to their legitimacy? Oh and just to be sure they all charge tax just to the state in which they do business in right?
So any opinions or experiences with any of these sites you want to share would be appreciated!

Is it illegal to order cuban cigars and have them sent to you in the us?
I was under the impression it was however I saw this website that says it’s not. I’ll put the link below and what they say….
http://www.headshopsupply.com/cigars.php
Real cuban cigars can be difficult to find in places that they are still illegal to purchase such as the United States but in some countries outside of the U.S. you can order authentic and real Cohiba, Monte Cristo and Romeo Y Julieta that are not counterfeit. Many people are still confused and think that it is illegal to order by importing into the U.S.A. For personal use this is not true. You are legally allowed to order up to two boxes and our supplier guarantees delivery to all personal buying to the U.S.A. and other countries. All are hand rolled and have been enjoyed by various celebrities such as President Bill Clinton. Our supplier also has a wide variety of accesories such as humidors, and books to describe the history of smoking these hand crafted and tight rolled cigars. You must be over 18 to order and the most popular brands are listed below and include Cohiba, Montecristo and Romeo Juliet.
