Above 68% and I have problems keeping them lit and burning straight.

I keep mine at 63% and prefer the way they smoke at that RH.

Keep in mind I smoke about 98% Cuban, and I understand that some people prefer their NCs closer to 70% than to 65%.
Same here but I also prefer my nc's at the same low rh too. Of course, 99% of my nc's are Pepins and he says to store his cigars between 60-65 for optimum enjoyment. When stored too wet, I find they are a bit harsh and the flavors are muted as well.
