Walk-In Humidor Rooms

Spanish Cedar is favored for humidors due to its ability to regulate humidity, offer a pleasant aroma, repel insects, and resist warping. These properties ensure cigars are preserved in optimal conditions, enhancing their flavor and protecting them over time.

The number of cigars that a humidor can hold depends on the size of the humidor. Generally speaking, a cigar humidor that can hold around 50 cigars is considered a good starter size, but larger humidors can hold hundreds of cigars.

Cigars need to be kept in a humidor because they are made of natural materials that can dry out or become too moist if not stored properly. A humidor helps to maintain the perfect humidity level and temperature for cigars, ensuring that they are always in the best possible condition.

A humidor should be placed in a cool, dark, and dry place in your house. This can be a basement, a wine cellar, or a closet. It should be kept away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and areas with large temperature fluctuations. It is also important to avoid placing the humidor near appliances that generate heat or vibrations.

Cigars can last indefinitely in a humidor if stored properly, maintaining their flavor and quality over time. The key is to ensure the humidor is correctly regulated at a relative humidity level between 68% and 72%. These conditions mimic the natural tropical climate where cigars are made, helping to preserve their moisture without drying out or becoming too moist, which could lead to mold or beetle infestations. Regular monitoring and maintenance of these conditions are crucial for long-term storage, allowing cigar aficionados to enjoy their collection at its best for many years.
