Aging & storage · Guidance

How to keep it

General humidor guidance for this cigar, based on its wrapper, strength, ring gauge and packaging.

Storage

Hold the box at 65–70% relative humidity at 65–70°F (18–21°C). Steady humidity matters far more than the exact number — swings are what crack wrappers.

Rest after delivery

Two to three weeks of rest after delivery lets the box settle back to your humidor before the first smoke.

Aging window

Milder blends age less dramatically — plan to enjoy this one inside a year or so rather than cellaring it long-term.

In the box

Age them in their own box where possible — the cedar keeps the cigars marrying together instead of taking on the flavour of everything else in the humidor.
