Cuban cigars should be kept in a room with a relative humidity of 65 to 70 percent, between 16 and 18 degrees Celsius (60 and 64 degrees Fahrenheit). A cigar’s ability to mature can be hampered by lower temperatures. Due to the relationship between temperature and humidity, it is crucial to maintain a steady temperature. In contrast to a humid Habano, a dry cigar will taste harsh and have poor draw and smoke. An infection from a parasite known as a tobacco weevil or tobacco beetle can be triggered by temperatures above 18 °C. The decay caused by these parasites causes wrappers to rip. Even though infections of this kind are uncommon, the only treatment is to place the cigar box in your freezer for a few days.
