You’re not a fool, you're correct. RH plays a huge roll in how things burn and how things burn play a roll in flavor. I like mine a little drier than 70% because they burn more the way I like them at around 60%. Also, I like spicy cigars, with natural wrappers that lend themselves to lower RH. I'm not a big maduro fan but the one's I've had seem to like a bit more RH than the cigars a usually smoke.


Either way, it's all about preference and what you like. I suggest you get some beads, I think they come in 70% and even 75%. Just be careful, at an RH above 70 and a temp above 75 to 80 degrees and you might get some beetles hatching and that would ruin your stash.
