As some of you know, i'll be studying abroad in madrid this semester (leaving tomorrow night). I'm broke and can't afford to buy too many cigars there, so i plan on bringing a bunch with me. what is the best way to store/travel with these? keep in mind i'll be gone for 4 months. i was thinking some high quality tupperware and some beads out of my vino, it wont be opened too much here so i dont think a little less will be too much of an issue. any tips or advice?
thanks

I think your tupperdor will work just fine with the beads. Good luck in Madrid!!! :tu

Tupperware and 65% beads should be perfect.
Have fun in Madrid buddy! :tu

Enjoy Spain. I wish I went abroad for a semester. That is my biggest regret of college.....not traveling. I decided to work instead.

I've used Tupperware with a chunk of spanish cedar and beads in it for an extended period - it works well. In some ways it is better than a cheap humidor - you know the Tupperware will seal well.

Take the Tupperware with you and have a friend send care packages every so often.

That's an awesome opportunity! I'll bet you'll find some decent cigars there. Spanish Market Selection?

I say a couple of those boveeda packets and a tupperdor or get a travel humi (30 to 50 cigar ones)
Travel humi would be my vote :D Durable as all get out, and you can keep your RH rock solid with a boveeda packet.
