Transition Of The Care Of A Cigar

In the beginning, the care of a cigar, or to maintain the freshness was purely by chance, or better said- none.

The evolution to today’s very sophisticated electronic systems, began with a simple moist sponge in the box of cigars- then to the old “ice-box” then to refrigerators, and then to the development of a simple sponge within a receptacle of sorts- Bingo!- the birth of a humidity controlled piece.

Now, in the interim- humidors or very elaborate boxes came on the scene- and a marriage of the two- fancy box plus a unit to fit in it, proved an answer to fresh cigars.

When the boxes were being developed- a specific wood was found to enhance the taste, Spanish cedar, which is still used today.

From simple boxes now to exotic woods and very beautiful humidors began to appear- to the now result of some humidors becoming, one pride of ownership of a literal- piece of furniture.

Humidity systems now are of the electronic age- keeping the collection of cigars at 70rh and 70 degrees- for a perfect cigar for any occasions.

Finally, it is important that the development of humidors, small to wall size to room size be maintained constantly- and the collection of cigars remain in prime smoking condition.

As a rule- cigars should be firm to the touch, not soft as sponge or hard as a pencil.
