About this deal

This particular humidity level isn’t just good for wooden humidors but is also recommended for seasoning musical instrument cases. However, this isn’t particularly relevant. By the way, remember to remove them from their plastic wrapper first otherwise they won’t be activated! In both cases, the hygrometer simply sits in the bag and you can then adjust its reading once 24 hours have elapsed. Some argue that the precise temperature isn’t quite as important as long as it’s consistent. Nevertheless, we tend to aim to simulate cellar conditions of between 10°C (50°F) to 15°C (60°F).

is safer than the 72% for long aging. Smoking a cigar right out of the humidor @69% is really not a good idea from my experience. The first half will burn okay but will often not burn straight. Past the first half the moisture burning off from the first half should by now be saturating the end of the cigar and you will often encounter major burn issues with you cigar. Dissect a smoke nearing the final third and you will find the leaf inside to be extremely wet.

Similarly, some Dominican cigars are better stored at 65% as well as a few Puros. However, this depends on the brand and its resulting blend. In this section of our review, we’ll break down the variety of humidity levels that are adapted to a variety of storage options. Like the sizes, not all of them are adapted for cigars. For instance, 32% and 49% are designed for musical instruments while 58% and 62% are made for legal cannabis.

RH — For cigars in drafty humidors and extreme environments, the 75% accommodates a high amount of moisture loss allowing the humidor to maintain a high 60s RH level. Also recommended for humidors housed at high altitudes and in desert-like conditions (use at your own discretion).

RH—For cigars in most wood humidors, glass top humidors and non-polymer travel humidors. Since wood humidors exchange moisture, it’s not uncommon to see a decrease of 2–5%RH. The 72% accommodates and even compensates for the moisture loss allowing the humidor to maintain a sought-after high 60s RH level. Remove your cigars from your humidor and move them into a closed Tupperware® container, cooler or a Humidor Bag with 69% Boveda.

In comparison, traditional humidification solutions will require frequent recharging to ensure that they don’t dry up. RH stands for relative humidity. Selecting the correct relative humidity is very important when caring for your cigars. It can affect the way that cigars taste, burn and light. Our helpful guide below will help you choose from the five different RH levels. RH (Most popular RH for premium cigars) — For cigars in airtight humidors, including but not exclusively for Boveda Humidor Bags, polymer travel humidors. Also best for high-end humidors, including but not exclusively Elie Bleu and Daniel Marshall. You may have heard of a salt method for calibrating a humidor where you use a bottle cap filled with salt and water in a container. However, these are actually very inaccurate given that the containers are rarely air-tight, the quantities of salt may vary, and they may have additives. Designed for your inexpensive or glass top humidors. The 75% accommodates a high amount of moisture loss allowing the humidor to maintain a high 60s RH level.

Why Use Boveda For You Humidor?

This saturated solution is contained within a water-vapor permeable “reverse osmosis” membrane. Within a closed desktop humidor Bóveda maintains a predetermined level of (RH) by releasing or absorbing purified water-vapor—as needed—through the membrane. We would only use this as a short-term fail-safe or as a stop-gap, though, as we generally don’t recommend using an unreliable humidor. Instead, this could be a temporary solution while saving up or looking for a quality humidor where you won’t have this problem. Prevent the wood from robbing your cigar’s essential moisture. (Seasoning raises the wood’s moisture level so it’ll be in equilibrium with your cigars.)
