Hi all, I am new here and searched the forum but can't really find the answer I am looking for.
I have a humidor that is full of cigars and it works great.
Now I want to buy a box of 25 cigars but am wondering if I can leave them in the sealed box or should I take them out and place them in the humidor?
Can I store my sealed box of cigars for a long period of time? I don't want to open them just yet. Thanks so much!!!!

If you have a larger (sealed) container like a cooler with a humidifcation unit that you can put the box of cigars in, you can leave the box in there indefinitely...
If you don't have a larger sealed container or if you don't have a humidipak in the box of cigars, you probably want to put it in the humidor.
Personally, I leave my cigars in the original boxes until I have 3-4 sticks left, in which I toss them into my desktop or a tupperware container in my coolidor.
Hope that helps. :smiley37:
Great thanks for the welcome and reply!
I might just end up getting another humidor just for this box. It is a box of partagas D No.4 from Cuba. :)
Go for a coolerdor, you wont regret it.

If the box is wrapped in plastic or cellophane, take the plastic wrap off of the box before storing. You can leave the cellophane wrappers on the cigars if they are individually wrapped.

If the "A" sample tastes different - he moves onto the "B" sample to see if "A" was a fluke.
oh yeah...sorry about the explanatory :smiley52:

didn't know people send cigars to a tester. I can understand if they are suspect but mine aren't. THanks for the info!
Did George pay you to say this, or do you and him have a scam going??:smiley36: :smiley32:Quote:
