How to Correctly Store Your Cigars In Your Humidor

It seems pretty simple - put the cigars in the humidor. Then you're done, right? Well, sorta. What happens when you get humidified packs or cigars in oddball packaging. And what about storing certain types of cigars near each other? Let us take you through the best way to set up your collection.

Your honesty about the boveda packs is gonna inspire me to start ordering from you . Much appreciated friend.

What a cool idea to store factory smokes with pipe tobacco...sounds super interesting. The love the Maduro.

My guy dropping that little experiment in the last 10 seconds! I’m going to try that

[@christianoliver3572]

I remember advice that I received more than 20 years ago when I made my first online cigar purchase and that was to let the cigars rest in my humidor for at least two weeks after delivery until smoking. This can take some spontaneity out of the experience but I've noticed over the years that very often my cigars can be at a different humidity level than I'd ordinarily like so it really is worth planning ahead. For more spontaneous purchases I think it's better to just go to your local B&M.

[@MrGoblue1131]

I do 2-3 months before I smoke anything and it makes a huge difference IMO. Given, you have to keep a constant rotation and stock more even in a separate acrylic/tupperdore but it works.

[@davidnapper8097]

As much as Acid cigars cost I don't think we have to worry about kids buying them . If I still smoked infused cigars I would have a separate humidor or cigar jar . The aroma at least permeate your premiums if not the flavor . I do separate really strong cigars from milder ones . Great topic , awesome channel and content , thanks 👍👍

[@imnotbenavery9220]

I found that my blondie in a 14 cigar sampler tasted completely different than my case of 40. I’d only do that for a single infused flavors after that.

[@davidnapper8097]

@@imnotbenavery9220 A lot of people say flavors don't intermingle but they do . When I first started I had a small humidor and didn't smoke a lot , so I might have a certain cigar for awhile before I smoked it . The guy at the shop I went to told me to remove the cellophane and they would age better . A friend gave me a CAO Moontrance , I unwrapped it and put it away . A month later all my cigars were CAO Moontrance . Cello stays on now and I have 2 humidors , 1 for the mellow cigars and 1 for the full bodied stuff . Don't smoke infused cigars myself but if you do , don't put them with your regular cigars . They will affect your other cigars . Live and learn . Enjoy those stogies 👍👍

[@Mountainrock70]

My old man went his whole life without a humidor, cigar cutter or anything else for that matter. He bought cigars by the box and cut the ends with a sharp knife. Of course he was a man that didn’t season his food either LMAO

3:25 I recharge mine! I used to just do the paper towel method. But I’ve been using those water beads in a ziplock and throw the packs in there. The Boveda pack doesn’t get all soaking wet, and it works great!

[@davidayres9865]

Is it better to store them in the humidor inside the individual cellophane wrappers or should I remove the cellophane ??

[@terrythenotarypublicexecns9271]

I keep mine in the bag. Its works out for me. Maintaining the right humidification is the important thing in my opinion I dont smoke the infused cigars..

[@Lord.Kiltridge]

I just bought 7 five packs. While the packaging varied, none were humidified. I took them all out of the packaging, trimmed the cello at one end so they were open, and loaded them all into a new Tupperdor with two fresh Boveda packs.

[@ThelifeofKingfish]

A factory smoke with a hint of acid, sounds like we’ve gone back to the 60s!

[@Psyrus88]

I handle the issue of recharging Boveda packs as follows: For the humidor itself, I will always buy a fresh one for the sake of consistency. That being said, I will also keep some old 8g packs on hand that I can easily recharge for travel or if I need an extremely short term solution for the humidification of 1 or 2 cigars.

[@mikeg6666]

How do you recharge those packs , I've heard of people doing that but others say it doesn't work?✌️

[@Psyrus88]

@MikeG66 "Recharging" is just rehydrating the pack. Soak it in a bit of distilled water for a bit and then let the exterior dry out. You may have to do this twice, but after you do you'll notice that the interior is now holding liquid once again.

[@ThelifeofKingfish]

Cigar oasis in a fridgidor, with 69 degree Boveda packs. The Boveda is always ready for the travel humidor, and as a bonus it’s a backup bonus to the fridgidor.

Year ago I had a boveda explode on my cigars. Boveda handled it amazing and I was told the cigars were still safe to smoke. I am still alive so don't worry about them getting on your cigar wipe it off you will be fine.

[@keanflynn9254]

how do the metal tins work for cigars do they still need to be in the humidor or can they stay in the tins i know oliva has some in the tins im interasted in getting them

[@gabrielbensusen7038]

So can flavored cigars ruin your non flavored if put in the same area/humidor? Genuinely curious

[@bigteej5821]

I am a fan of scoundrel cigars,but I had more than my jar would hold. I threw like 9 of these things into a separate humidor with a Deadwood cigar, I think a Sweet Jane or whatever it's called. Long story short I had a very deadwood flavored 75 cent stick.

[@travisyuga]

I have a brand new acrylic humidor (first time using acrylic) and I'm using 69 Bovedas. My hygrometer is staying steady at 75% RH so I've been leaving the lid slightly cracked and this seems to be helping as my RH is now holding steady at around 71%. Is this common for acrylic humidors? Any suggestions here? TIA

[@randypq4671]

I've always stored my infused cigars with my premies... never had even a trace tinge of 'cross contamination'. BUT... I have 6 to 10 in one tray in my humidor and the rest of that tray, and the other two trays, are non-infused.

[@kylegarrett9212]

Something I wanna do is make a ventilation “shelf” for the bottom of my humidor, thoughts? It’s a 40ct humidor

what is the best electric humidor for under 300. I don't smoke a lot but like to let my cigars stay good and not go stale

[@bananaballgolfermbaya6908]

My hygrometer says 74 but my Boveda is at 69. I tried calibrating by placing my hygrometer in a zip lock with a 69 Boveda like what some posts say to do but nothing has changed. I'm just thinking its the hygrometer itself cause I bought one of those 6 pack hygrometers from amazon. What should I do?

[@carolina_ace]

Factory smoked and acid.... my two favorites

[@superfluffyfun]

have maany bovedas from new to 5 years old. they wafer, place in distilled water for a week and they are usable again. use digital humidity meters and humidity stays as stable as the new boveda packs.. ascertained by a control acrylic humidor with new bovedas and same humidor type with old bovedas. same readings. only problem is i now have a plethora of boveda packs.

[@sarahsayshello9726]

When you guys say separate infused and premium cigars do you mean say keep infused at the top premium at the bottom or do you mean in an entirely different humidor?

[@CigarsDaily]

Keep them separated entirely. Some people will put them in a ziplock bag inside their humidors. Others will get a seperate humidor. You just want to keep the flavors from bleeding over to your non-infused stuff.

If I buy alot I keep them in wrapper and take out a few for the week. Either which way it won't matter much if you keep them humidified.

Specifically speaking about infused cigars. I'm very concerned that simply keeping them on a separate shelf (300 ct) in the original wrapper isn't going to be enough to prevent the bleed over? Your thoughts please.

I’m trying to figure out that answer to. Cause I did leave a flavored cigar in with my non flavored and am wondering if it’s jeopardized…?

Up to you and what you like It’s cellophane btw not plastic it help reduce humidity loss and slows down the aging process. As I said personal preference you could try one with one without in your humidor and see which you prefer!

Do you leave the wrapper on the cigar when it’s in the humidor?

[@J-138-J]

Yes if you have a variety, no if they're all the same, the cello (which is not plastic) takes in the humidity and even allows aging but it prevents the different cigars tastes from affecting the others around it.

Nope.

[@cultie2]

If I am not mistaken, a cigarillo is much smaller cigar. They can be smaller than cigarettes. I used to smoke them.

[@BigBlueSwisher]

Correct, cigarillos are smaller cigars. Smoked the same, usually don't last near as long, for when you can't spend the time to enjoy a full length cigar

One of them is that slimeball Dick Blumenthal , he used to be the attorney general of the state and would sue every business he could. He put so many regulations on businesses that they eventually started leaving the state , we've a very unfriendly business environment. We lost some big companies like GE , most of Pratt and Whitney , Sickorski the sub base etc. Then they wonder why they can't get businesses to come here?

Well I missed this episode and I wanted to comment something, for all thermoelectric humidors and having a difficult time to control your humidity inside your humidity believe it or not you need to also control your humidity inside your house, even with a good seal humidity inside your house will play a big role, that’s why sometimes your humidity will spike even if you have 62% boveda packa or an electronic humidifier.
