Casual cigar owners often ask themselves: is a humidor really necessary? The answer is: only if you care about the quality and taste of your cigars.
After all, for some smokers, the after-dinner cigar is more symbolic than anything – a conspicuous display, perhaps, of taste and leisure, or a social or familial ritual. If, however, you smoke for taste – which is the best reason to smoke – you should probably invest in a humidor: a specially-constructed box designed to maintain your cigars in near-70% humidity and at a proper temperature when they’re not being smoked.

Cuban cigars originate from the Caribbean, which has a tropical climate very different to Europe. As a natural product, your Havana cigars need to be kept carefully. They are used to being in a warm climate with a relatively high humidity.
Therefore they will need to be protected from extremes of temperature and humidity (particularly low humidity). This is particularly difficult to achieve in air conditioned and centrally heated buildings, where the air tends to get de-humidified and cigars can dry out very quickly. Some cigars come in aluminum tubes which can help preserve them in dry climates, however they tend to mature at a much slower rate than ‘naked’ boxed cigars.
This came through on the email this afternoon, you can get a pretty cool looking Romeo Y Julieta humidor with the purchase of a box of cigars. Even better? The boxes are all 25% off!! Here’s the text of the email:
FREE Romeo y Julieta 20-Count Humidor with box purchase ($30 Value!)
Romeo y Julieta Viejo ‘B’ is the greatest, most celebrated blend of Romeo y Julieta ever! Since its Cuban birth in 1875, Romeo y Julieta has been one of the world’s most popular cigar brands. The new and rare Viejo blend is incredible. The perfectly aged tobaccos create a smooth, mellow flavor and mouthwatering creamy smoke. With an Old World Cuban-style triple cap, each Viejo cigar is meticulously box pressed to perfection by the most skilled rollers. Boxes of 20.
The boxes Range from $104 (for the sampler) to $140 for a box of Belicoso. Honestly, you can’t beat those prices, and the Humidor itself is worth at least $25.
