Do you recommend leaving your cigars in their orginal boxes or do you take the out.I use a vinocooler and have room.Setting RH=67-69, t=63-66.

Leave them in the box prevents wrapper damage IMHO>

I like to leave them in boxes for aesthetic value, not that I have many - but thats the plan for the future.

I use a coolidor. Most are in the original boxes. But, I take some old cab.s and cut them off at about 2" of height and sand them a little to make homemade trays on the cheap. So, I put a few of each vitola in my little trays and store those on the top. When you open the coolidor you see several small trays with all the differant cigars on display, the rest are stored below in the boxes as mentioned above.

When I add new boxes to it the RH goes way up and it takes a long time to come down. Anything I can do to make it come down quicker???

keep all my cigars in their boxes in a cabinet humidor. allows them to age without taking on flavors of other cigars.


"Cuban seed tobaccos grown in Nicaragua and Cuba. The wrapper would be from Cuba. The binder leaves would be from Nicaragua. For the ligero tobacco in the filler, he would use two types, one from Esteli and the other from Jalapa in Nicaragua. The other filler components, seco and viso, would come from Cuba, the former from Villa Clara, the latter from Pinar del Rio. That Cigar, he says with pride, would score 100 points."
