Proper storage is crucial for maintaining the quality of cigars over the long term. Here’s how to ensure your cigars are perfectly preserved:
Control Humidity and Temperature
Maintain a steady humidity level between 65-70% and temperature around 70°F. Fluctuations can damage cigars, causing them to dry out or become too moist.
Use the Right Humidor
Invest in a quality humidor lined with Spanish cedar. This wood helps regulate moisture and adds a pleasant aroma.
Avoid Direct Light and Air
Store your humidor in a dark, stable environment. Light and excessive air exposure can degrade cigars.
Rotate Your Cigars
Periodically rotate cigars within your humidor to ensure even humidity distribution.
Monitor Regularly
Check your humidor’s humidity and temperature with a reliable hygrometer to keep conditions optimal.
These steps will help maintain the integrity of your cigars, ensuring they age beautifully and taste great whenever you choose to enjoy them.
