I just had a Olivia G Maduro Churchill and was not impressed. Not sure if this smoke is much different…but the one I had almost had a chemical taste to it. When smelling off the burn I could smell chocolate and leather…but while smoking it, I could not. It was not very plesurable and I am left with a little headache. The burn was good though. Had it in the humidor for a month. It was the first out of a 5 pack smpler I bought. It will definetly be a while before I go back for another.

I like the Oasis a lot. I stay away from buying the new cartridges, instead going the Chris V route by replacing the florist foam and refilling with distilled water when necessary. The key here is to avoid filling the cartridge to the top. The Oasis works by drawing air through the cartridge. If the cartridge is full of water then no air can get through and the unit is ineffective.

My Oases (I have one for each humidor, plus a couple for my “mother of all humidors” from Thompson) are now about two/two and a half years old and I think they are starting to wear out. On one the display doesn’t work and on the other it’s difficult to lower the set point. For around a C-Note I would have hoped they’d last longer, unless I’m doing something wrong. Still, it’s nice to have a set-it-and-forget-it humidifier. I wouldn’t worry at all about it over humidifying at all. I think the biggest issue will be checking the water level in the cartridge on a regular basis.

I love my Oasis. Cut it up and replaced the foam with silica cat litter beads. That way you don’t have to worry about the usual mold/replacement issue with foam cartridges. Some people say the oasis’ aren’t accurate… but mine is. And if it’s not, put in an accurate hygro and go by that…

Err, “beetles” that is. As of yet, I’ve had no problems with Paul McCartney’s suddenly appearing inside my humidor.
