It's good to know there are variations in the cigars and it's not just me.
So I won't need any 70% at all? I like that. The gel humidification I'm using now is 70 and that seems like the default when looking at the products online. Is the choice of 60 or 65 strictly personal or are there reasons to go with one or the other?
