A humidor is a box, or room, that has a set humidity and is typically used to store cigars, cigarettes, and tobacco. Typically, humidors are used by cigar smokers to keep their babies feeling fresh. You need to ensure you buy a quality humidor to keep your cigars safe. If you cheap out, you’re going to ruin those Cubans you’ve been dying to try.
If you’re planning on travelling around with cigars, you’re going to need a humidor designed for it.
