Do you dry box?

[darkleeroy]

I dry box in an old cedar humidor, if the cigar needs it (my Padilla Miami's love sucking in humidity for some reason). Often times I can pull most any cigar out of the humi and it smokes fine.

That being said, where I live is known for being a pretty humid place, heck ambient humidity right now is 61%, so "dry boxing" my cigars isn't that big of a difference from the humidor.

When I do get a wine cooler set up, I may use my dry box more often just so the cigars acclimate from the cold to warm. I'd imagine they'd be spongy if I just took em out and started smoking them in super hot, humid Florida

You could get a desiccant pack and put it in the drybox with the cigar.

Camera stores usually sell tins of desiccant that you can re-use many times, simply by placing them in the oven, or as I prefer to do, on a wire rack then set a 75W photo flood clip light over the top (rest the edges of the hood it on the rack) and turn the light on and just leave it for an hour or two (way cheaper than running an oven, even a toaster oven for that same length of time).
