Hello ! I'm very new to the cigar world, and after buying some and storing them inside plastic bags with Boveda 70%, I've decided to buy a Humidor (Adorini Chianti Deluxe). One of the problem I had (which might be important for what comes next) is that I fear I might have received some old...

So I smoked a La Aurora ADN a few nights ago, and I had constant burn problems with it. I have two 69% Boveda packs in my tupperdore with about 67 or so cigars, which have been in there since about August. The cigar had been resting since 2017, and I had 65% packs in there before I got these...

That is the question. When the vendor gives you the option, one of four options, in fact, which do you pick and why? Ideally, I don't want them opened, however, I also don't want to roll the dice with getting moldy cigars. So if an inspection is recommended, I can live with that. I have a...

Hey folks. Sorry it's been a while, I've been off posting on other forums. Today I went to my B&M for two new Boveda packs for my tupperdore (7L KlipIt). The two packs I have in there are done. Question is, should I put both in there, or just one? Or start with one and see where the RH is...

So I have been using 69% Boveda Packs for my humidor for about 6 months now, and things have been going ok. The humidity was never 69% (especially in the dead of winter) but it usually hovered around 65%-67% which was ok with me. However I got lazy and did not noticed that my packs had dried up...

Hi everyone. I am hoping you can help me get my humidor under control and advise whether my sticks are ruined or not. I've attached several images showing whats going on. It's a Savoy box, I have 2 boveda 72% bags in it and a digital hygro reading 76 Degrees F and 72% humidity. The box...

Do you change your humidor rh% on winter vs summer due to ambient humidity and weather?

I have Cuban cigars and Davidoff cigars. For Cubans, I had 2 thread on this forum and I learned good infos. But on Davidoff Dominican and Davidoff Nicaragua, what is your humidity suggestions and experiences?

Habanos says 65-70 rh is good for Cuban cigars. But a lot of people on this forum says 60-65 rh is good for summer days. I cannot underdtand why Habanos says 65-70 rh and %95 of this forum users say 60-65 rh. Can you tell me difference for burn and taste?

Hi, Here is 80F in summer and I don't have any solution for temp. I am using 69 rh boveda in humidor and humidity is 65-66 rh. I have only Cuban cigars. Problem is cigars are spongy and have bitter taste. I made some research on internet and some web sites says that don't care actual...

So I got my first tupperdor about 6 weeks ago, bought around 20 cigars and put them in, along with a 72% boveda pack and some cedar sheets. I've noticed the last 3 cigars I've smoked (cc Fonseca delicias, Avo classic, AF short story) feel like they barely stay lit, the draw is tight, smoke...

Will my humidor get damaged if I do not maintain it's humidity even though it has no cigars in it and won't for who knows how long?

I'm building a Tupperdore today, and only two places in my area have Boveda Humidity packs. The first place closest to me has three 72% packs, but that's a little high for me. I'm waiting until the other place 7 miles away opens at 11 to call them and ask them if they have any in stock. I...

Hi folks, I'm new here, I signed up looking for help with a problem. There's so much information out there, that it's driving me nuts, and I think I might be overthinking or worrying too much about this. So any help you can give me is greatly appreciated. I bought my first humidor (10-cigar...

So, my problem, which is always the same and remains constant is humidity. My humidor is about 75-80% full. Inside it, there are 3-72* Boveda packs and a large rectangular Xikar gel humidifier that uses the PG. I keep my AC at 70-73 degrees and the outside temp in Dallas is usually 86-94*. My...

Hey all, so I live in Fort Worth, Texas and the humidity is really high here. I have a Raching Cabinet humidor that I bought from a B&M cigar lounge and luckily it saved all my cigars once, but now the humidity is up to 80. I have it set at 68 but since Texas has high humidity, I don't really...

My friend Paul came to visit today and he fixed the lip with very thin wood that fit just so snugly around it. Hes a pro carpenter I should have asked him in the first place. It holds perfect humidity now and passes all the leak tests. Im so pleased that I don't have to worry about my habanos :D

I just reseasoned my humidors but they are still leaking even though I am using extra boveda packs at a higher RH % than needed. I don't want to buy new ones at this point and I think weather stripping would make it worse. is there anything I can do? like spraying the bottom of the humidor with...

I've heard a lot say 65% but I read that 70% is the best to age them at is this true?
