Posted in Best Of
Besides the cigars themselves, no purchase is more important to a cigar lover than a cigar humidor. Cigar humidors come in all shapes, sizes, and price ranges, but if you’re looking for the best of the best, you’re in the right place. We’ve sifted through the reviews and ratings and uncovered the best large cigar humidors on the market to make your life a little easier. Check out our top large cigar humidors that make the perfect home for any sizable collection of premium cigars.
Cigars left outside of a humidified environment, though, typically won’t last longer than a few days before they become brittle, cracked, or unsmokable. That’s why it’s so important to have a quality humidor to store your cigars and to have effective humidifiers in your humidor. Today, we’ll list the top humidifiers for your humidor so you can make your next purchase with confidence.
Newcomers to the cigar community often find out the hard way that poor humificiation can ruin even the most decadent cigar. Unlike other luxury products like high-end whiskey, for example, cigars must be stored in a specialized container called a humidor. Properly maintained humidors regulate temperature and humidity in a controlled environment, and they allow cigar lovers to safely store their favorite smokes for years (or even decades).
If you smoke cigars, a humidor is a no-brainer. Without a humidor, a cigar can last about 30 days at best, that is, if it’s in a cellophane wrapper. No wrapper? You’re looking at just three days.
In order to last, cigars need to be kept at a certain temperature, humidity, and moisture level. When these factors aren’t kept in check, your smoke will lose freshness and quickly deteriorate in flavor. There are a variety of ways to protect your cigars — from a fancy cabinet humidor to a simple acrylic jar humidor. However, if you’re looking for the best of the best, the electric cigar humidor is the way to go.
