Box of Cohiba Siglo II (5's)

[simosimo]

My brother aquired 2 boxes of Siglo II 5's for free, and because he doesn't smoke cigars, he'll be sending them to me

Thing is though, are the boxed cigars in cellofane? or are they just open?

I only buy one , two or three cigars a time, so I've never had so many cigars to deal with.
How can I keep them (if they aren't in cellofane) from fucking up over time? I don't have a humidor or anything.

£130 of cohibas going to waste isn't good

Easiest and cheapeest thing to do would be to build a tupperdor.

Good luck,

Until you get yourself a humidor use some tupperware to store the cigars, you will also need to keep it humidified using some oasis dampened with distilled water, sitting in a smaller container.

Alternatively, send them to me

yup, what he said, tupperware, humidity solution from local tobacco shop, and that's it.

be sure to post pics of the box. i'd love to see if they have cello on 'em...

B&Ms have humidity bags that you can put them in. I'd go get a bag of beads and stick it in the tupperware. Alternatively, you can use a kitchen sponge with distilled water - but you'd still want to use a hygrometer to measure RH.

Nah I asked my brother. The cigars have their own little boxes....within the big box. If that makes any sense.

My Humidor bag which I ordered from simply cigars arrived today so when the cohibas arrive, all shall be well, hopefully...
