Online Wine Club

There are quite a few examples of an online wine club if you are interested in finding one. Aside from the clubs which show up near the top of a basic Google search a number of major media companies also offer wine clubs.

Newspapers such as the New York Times, Los Angeles Times and even the Chicago Tribune now have wine clubs in order to help raise revenue in these tough economic times. I do wonder though, how interested are they in the wine itself, or is it all about the revenue?

A few major magazines also have wine clubs, with one notable example being Sunset Magazine. Sunset was one of the first major media companies to feature a wine club and while they use a 3rd party to fulfill orders, it does seem like their long history shows a clear cut insistence on shipping quality wines which are not widely available.

 

Review: the Art Deco 60 Count Humidor

In humidor reviews this year, one particular has stood out from amongst the other humidors on the market: The Art Deco 60 Count Humidor. It has also been one of the top selling humidors on major retail websites, like Amazon.com and Yahoo Shopping. In professional and consumer written humidor reviews, this humidor has been praised for its craftsmanship, tight seal, and its attractiveness. Most consumers agreed that The Art Deco was comparable to humidors that had a price tag of two to three times the cost of The Art Deco. Its starting price point begins at $119.00 at Thompson Cigar. It is lined with Spanish cedar, and it features a high gloss piano finish. The architecture of The Art Deco 60 Count humidors is designed to be reminiscent of New York’s Chrysler Building. The only complaint that most consumers have had about this item is that its hygrometer has a tendency to be faulty. If you are in the market for new humidors, then The Art Deco 60 Count Humidor is one to consider.
