Need help in storage of good cigars

I agree, I would also leave the cigars in the tube that they came in. It will protect them from getting damaged. I leave all my cigars in the cello until I smoke them.

Thanks guys for the info...plus one more question....Do you have to turn the cigars in the humidor every once in a while?

I've heard of people doing it, but you don't have to. I never bother and I've never had a problem. If it makes you feel better, feel free. God knows everyones got a little compulsion of some sort.

I am always rearranging my cigars in my humidor, if I take one out I have to replace it with another and then I bring some of the ones from the bottom up to the top so that I don't forget about them. I kinda get a little OCD when it comes to stuff like that.

I move mine around just to see what's still in there.

Folks rotate cigars for the purpose of allowing them to breathe - as well as to even out the various sticks' humidity. The humidity travels down your humidor, tupperdor, etc. Not as much of a concern for smaller boxes, but when you get into the larger containers, the sticks toward the top get more moisture - so folks rotate them periodically to even it out.

Same reason why most humidors allow the cigars to lay flat instead of standing on the foot of the stick; you might have an uneven distribution of moisture in a single stick.

You don't have to - but I do... but then, I like to look at 'em.

I have noticed that when I smoke a cigar from the humi that I rarely get into that almost always they burn unevenly. I am usually in my other 2 quite frequently (at least once a day). The sticks I smoke from those burn better. And all my humidors are at about the same RH. I will definately start moving my smokes around in all my humis more.
