Plastic Baggies There is a rather simple solution that works surprisingly well: keep your new cigars in a plastic bag. After you have your cigars bagged, it’s just a matter of keeping them in a temperate environment. As you may already know, the ideal environment for cigars is 70 degrees Fahrenheit and 70% humidity. Luckily, that temperature is rather close to room temperature in most homes. However, humidity may pose an issue if you plan on keeping your cigars in the bag for a long time. Enter Humidipaks. Boveda Humidipaks are designed to keep the humidity in a closed environment (like the inside of a Ziplock bag) consistent for an extended time. Best of all, you can buy your choice of a box of Humidipaks or a single Humidipak, based on your needs. Generally, two packs are recommended for 50 cigars. But if you were just gifted an unexpected box of 20, simply toss one of these packets in a Ziplock bag with your new cigars and keep them in a temperate area. You’re good to go!
