Hey guys, newby with a question..

actually....

If the relative humidity in Hawaii is fairly high (which it must be) you probably needn't be concerned about your cigars drying out.

As long as the humidity is running above 65% or so I would just keep them in a zip-loc bag in some place out of the sun and where it is relatively cool. If you have air conditioning it's a different story. The AC will dry the room AND the cigars. In that instance Roham's suggestion of the zip-loc and a small piece of damp cotton would work fine.

Just my .02 !

There are more sites with samplers but I'm to lazy to post them.

You can also try the addiction that is cigarbid.com I avoid it cause my ass is poor.

Welcome to the board from Wisconsin.

A tupperware container or small cooler also works well for a container. You still need to monitor the humidity. If it is too high some dried spanish cedar blocks work well to draw out the moisture. Or like Roham said if it is too low.

Yeah, I'd say a plastic bag is your easiest solution. If you don't use air conditioning, you should have a proper RH...

Welcome to the board! If you are looking for a sampler, Here one is. I purchased the sampler from CC a while back and it was an excellent pick!

I picked up a couple pieces of ceder (free) and a Drymistat (about 9 bucks) from my local cigar shop. The Drymistat will maintian he humidity around 70% for 25 cigars. I put them into a tupperware box and set it out of the sunlight. Now I can enjoy my cigars until my wife gets me that Humidor for Christmas!! Oh, and welcome to the board!
