wrapper on or off?

12-16-2011, 05:00 PM

Should i leave the wrappers on my cigars when i store them in the humidor or will it dry them out?

I smoke my cigars with the wrappers on...now the cello on the other hand...http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/showth...ighlight=cello

Personally, I keep them however I got them.

I usually leave them on...I don't think I have any in my Humi right now that's not except that half box of LP#9's...

me personally leave it on helps protect if your rough on them

You take your wrappers off?

It's a personal preference on the cello on/cello off debate. I, personally, keep it on so the sticks don't get damaged.

Wrappers on, cello on and I put my singles in sleeve bags.
This thread makes me smile!

I usually leave the wrapper on. Cello is your choice, usually helps to protect and doesn't affect aging.

bring it up to what?

IMO, I would leave it at 64% and see how you like it.

12-16-2011, 06:11 PM

i was reading it should be between 68% to 72% i wanted to bring it up to somewhere between that

no i did not read that here so many people say so many different things i don't know what to believe like if you should or should not wipe the inside of a new humidor down with distilled water i ended doing so but i heard different opinions on that

Mattso3000 · 12-16-2011, 06:09 PM

Not going to hurt anything at 64, goes to preference on what rel. humidity smokes best for you(taste, burn, enjoyment, etc...)

There are LOTS of stickies here you can read that have a wealth of information. Look in this sub forum and the accessories sub forum.

I leave the cigars as they come to me.

As for RH 65% is a great place to be at. I believe it was the most popular RH when polled awhile back as well.
