    I am new to cigars and have been reading this forum for a while, finally decided to register.
    How long can I hang on to a tubed cigar? I don't want to purchase a humidor yet and would rather not have to get in the car every time a craving hits. Also, anyone have a favorite tubed cigar?

    Welcome aboard. For tubos I like the Romeo y Julieta Churchill en Tubos.

    As for storing, stop by your local shop and pick up a Humidor Bag. Toss it in and it should be fine.

    welcome to the board!

    again, i agree with Grand Cru. the bag is a worry free way of storage that lasts 6 months. i'm getting ready to try my first tubed cigar, i have a Carlos Torano Reserva Selecta in my humi bag right now waiting for the right time to light it up.

    Whenever my tobacconist sells a cigar he packages it like this:



    He says that will last up to 6 months also. And you can just add a little bit of distilled water back in when you need

    WELCOME

    All the advice listed above is good. You can get a humidor bag, tupperware or as the pic above shows you can get humidifier pads or disks (my tobacconist sells them for $.50) and they last a month or so and are good for a few cigars in a ziplock bag.

    Again welcome and enjoy.
