Cigar news:
To keep cigars fresh, follow these steps:
- Store in a humidor: A humidor maintains a consistent humidity level (65-70% RH) and temperature (around 70°F), ideal for cigar storage.
- Keep away from direct sunlight: Sunlight can cause cigars to dry out and lose flavor.
- Avoid extreme temperatures: Don’t store cigars near heating vents, radiators, or air conditioning units.
- Maintain humidity: Use a hygrometer to monitor humidity levels and adjust as needed.
- Store cigars upright: This prevents moisture from accumulating in the foot of the cigar.
- Rotate cigars regularly: Rotate cigars every few months to ensure even aging and prevent mold growth.
- Monitor humidity levels: Check humidity levels regularly to prevent over-humidification, which can lead to mold.
- Use a cigar preservation device: Devices like cigar savers or cigar fresheners can help maintain humidity and freshness.
- Avoid storing cigars in plastic bags or airtight containers: This can cause moisture buildup and lead to mold.
- Check on cigars regularly: Regularly inspect cigars for signs of damage, mold, or dryness.
By following these steps, you’ll be able to keep your cigars fresh and enjoyable for a long time!
