Few pleasures are comparable to a well-aged cigar, some of which can be aged for up to five or even 10 years. Be sure to remove cigars from their cellophane wrappers, before storing them in your humidor. Some cigar connoisseurs even have separate humidors to age their premium cigars. Many prefer a humidor for each cigar's country of origin, for example, the Dominican Republic or Honduras, allowing each cigar brand to maintain its own distinctive taste, aroma, and aging process. Over Humidification A common mistake in cigar preservation is over-humidification.
Some people falsely believe when storing cigars, if a little humidity is good, a lot is better.
Over-humidification will cause premium cigars to become soggy, wrinkled and difficult to draw.
