That's a bit on the high side for me, but it really boils down to what humidity range
you think your cigars smoke best in, not what others say or think. From a practical standpoint, you don't want to go much below the mid fifties, or the cigar will dry out and lose it's oils. Over seventy, and you risk mold. Anything in between is fair game.

Odd. I keep mine in the low 60's range and seldom have problems with cracking or unraveling. Maybe Henderson is different than Vegas?
