Like Dave mentioned my problem stems more from where I smoke the cigars then from how they are stored. I shoot for around 65% RH. If I get the rare chance to smoke a cigar inside they are great. However, I smoke almost 99% of my cigars outside. During the summer months here in the south the performance of my cigars is, well, terrible. The air is so thick and the heat is so high that the cigars basically swell up while you smoke them. Usually, as described, the last 1/3 is not nearly as enjoyable as the first 1/3. In the colder months, cigars smoke great. Problem is trying to stay warm while sitting still in excess of an hour.

I need to move back to southern CA.
