Cigar 101: Rotating Cigars in a Humidor

Discover the secret to perfectly aging and enjoying your cigars! In this episode of Cigar 101, we delve into a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of cigar storage: rotating your cigars in a humidor. If you want every cigar to smoke uniformly and flawlessly, this is a must-know technique.

🌡️ Maintaining Ideal Conditions:
First, ensure your humidor maintains 68-72% humidity and around 70 degrees temperature - the sweet spot for cigar storage. Most households naturally hover around 70 degrees, simplifying this step.

🔄 Why Rotate Your Cigars:
But here's the game-changer: the humidification element is usually on the humidor's lid, affecting the cigars closest to it. Just like how tobacco is aged and fermented in bales, rotating your cigars is key. Move the top ones to the bottom and vice versa, ensuring a consistent aging process and flavor profile.

📚 Simple Rotating Process:
Rotating your cigars is a breeze. Periodically (around every two to three months), take out the cigars from the top, set them aside, and place the bottom ones on top. It's a small effort that yields big rewards - cigars that smoke uniformly and perfectly every time!

🍂 Consistent Taste and Construction:
Consistency is key in the cigar world. When you rotate your cigars, you guarantee consistent taste, construction, and burn quality. Imagine savoring your favorite blend, like the Jaime Garcia, with each cigar providing the same remarkable experience.
