Tubos and Boveda Packs are two different types of cigar storage solutions. A Tubo is a metal or glass tube that contains cigars and provides an airtight seal, protecting them from outside elements like humidity, dust, and other contaminants. This type of packaging also helps preserve the flavor and aroma of the cigar by keeping it fresh for longer periods of time.
Boveda Packs are small packets filled with a special combination of salts and minerals that help to maintain the relative humidity inside the container they’re stored in. These packs are ideal for long-term storage because they can keep cigars at their optimal humidity level without needing to be monitored regularly. The main difference between Tubos and Boveda Packs is that while Tubos protect cigars from external elements, Boveda Packs regulate internal humidity levels within the container where they’re stored.
