What is the minimum temperature range you would feel comfortable with in storing cigars in a coolidor or any other device for that matter. I realize that this question is somewhat subjective since everyones tastes are different. However, I am more concerned with damage to the smokes through the temperature being too low for a long period.
I recently set up a coolidor and its down in my basement. The RH is at 70, which Id like to lower a bit but the temperature is only at 60 degrees. Im assuming this is too low. I have smoked a few and they burn fine but am curious as to any long term downsides to the lower temperature. Also, should I lower the RH.
I can bring them upstairs and into a spare room but am sure I will catch a rash of sh*t from my wife. Besides then she's more apt to peek and actually see how much money I waste on my smokes.
And yes Ive used the search and yes it is a wonderful thing. However, Im still not clear as to what effects this will have, if any on the overall health, aging and enjoyment of the cigars.
Thanks.
