Tips To Gift A Cigar Humidor

 

 

 

Cigar Humidor

Looking for that perfect humidor? With all the selections available, your best bet is to buy & shop at cigarstar.ca with a large range of cigar humidors online. It is possible to spend time and energy going to a local cigar shop, however, most of the products they sell are also available online. Ordering online is easy, secure,  convenient and the product will be delivered directly to your door with a low flat rate shipping fee.

1. Buying Tips

If this is your first experience to buy & shop cigar star humidors, there are some simple ways to begin your search and narrow down your options. First, you need to decide on the style and size you desire as some products are very simple while others are much more extravagant with intricate inlays and glass work. Next, you need to decide if you would like to personalise your humidor with additional accessories. The possibilities are endless so narrow down your preferences.

2. Price Ranges

Price is going to be a large consideration when you buy & shop www.cigarstar.ca humidor store online. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for. Expensive humidors usually have better quality and workmanship with detailing. However, since the cigar humidor has gained in popularity companies are beginning to offer better quality for better prices. The best way to look at your humidor purchase is an investment. Your cigar collection costs money. If you want to protect that investment you need to purchase a humidor that will preserve your cigars properly, most importantly noting the cigar humidor needs to accommodate the size of your collection. Many cigars will be enjoyed long after their purchase and storing them properly will ensure that their flavors will be protected and enhanced.

3. Considering the Manufacturer

One of the most important factors in buying a humidor is the quality of materials used. There are a few necessities to consider when purchasing a humidor online. First, the wood used should be at least ½ inch thick on all sides including the bottom. Another important factor is  the inside of the unit should be lined with Spanish Cedar. Other types of wood may affect the taste of the cigars. Some woods could eventually taint the flavor. If you don’t choose Spanish cedar, Mahogany will be the close second that you should choose.  The most important factor and the purpose of the humidor is to provide the proper humidity for your cigar collection. The humidor you purchase should provide 70% relative humidity rather easily after seasoning. This is the same humidity level in which the tobacco grows that is used to make quality cigars. Providing the proper humidity levels assists in keeping the tobacco in its natural state. Your choice of humidor needs to be 100% reliable. If the humidity levels increase, your cigars will become soggy and hard to burn. If the levels drop, your cigars could become brittle and the quality and taste of your investments will suffer. Read the reviews and make sure reliability is a key positive factor. After your purchase, check the moisture content of your cigars and make sure your humidor is adjusted properly so your investments are well protected.

Do you remove the plastic wrapper when storing in your cigar humidor?

If there is one very common question posed by those who enjoy buying and smoking cigars it is "Do you remove the plastic wrapper when storing in a humidor?" This is a question that does not have an authoritative answer. Many experts will simply reply that it is a matter of preference, but there are some benefits in placing your cigar in your cigar humidor and leaving the cigars in their wrappers while inside the well controlled environment.


Let's start by looking at cigar wrappers in general so we can understand how they can be of tremendous benefit to a true cigar aficionado. Firstly, most cigars in plastic is material known as cellophane. This has the feel of plastic, with the exception that it is actually a porous material which has the ability to breath. Cellophane can prevent the actual wrapper or leaf of the cigar from sustaining damage.  For instance, if you leave a cigar in its wrapper outside of a controlled-environment it will go stale and be completely ruined in only a matter of days. This is because the air and moisture of the environment can travel in an out of the pores of the wrapper and leave it open to moisture loss unless it is put into a cigar humidor with proper humidity, 65-73%. 62-68F


So providing that your cigars are in cellophane and not plastic my personal opinion is to leave them in the cellophane while storing them inside your cigar humidor. If you are unsure if your wrapper is indeed cellophane remove the wrapper while storing/ageing.

Choosing the proper home for your cigars

Choosing the proper home for your cigars should be done with as much care as choosing your own house, for you or your family. For this you will  be able to enjoy these wonderfully wrapped creations!
After all Don't you want your favorite and prized cigars to be safe and comfortable just like you are in your home?
Here at Cigar Star we always focus on quality, inside and out. We provide the perfect environment for your cigars to age, so when you decide to fire up your favorite cigar it will taste, burn, and smoke the way it was intended to.
Often we are asked how many cigars will a humidor hold. We base our humidor count on a 42 ring gauge cigar "Montecristo #4" we pack the humidor full of this size cigar, as this will determine the maximum cigars that humidor will store.
Depending on which cigar you smoke will determine how many cigars our humidor will be able to store. If you smoke a large ring gauge cigar this will decrease the amount of cigars it will be able to store inside the cigar humidor.

This is why we say that picking a cigar humidor is like buying a home, if you have 3 children then you more than likely don't want a 2 bedroom home. Same as a cigar humidor if you like buying your cigars by the box and they are a large ring gauge cigar you may want to look at buying a larger cigar humidor.

Cigar Star cigar humidor humidifier review.




Hope everyone is enjoying the summer we are having. With the warm weather and high humidity levels in the summer months you may find that your humidor is retaining to much humidity or a higher humidity level then you desire. Which will cause your cigar to burn unevenly, or you may have to re-light it a couple of times.
We have received a couple emails regarding the use of our new Cigar Star humidor crystal humidifier system.
The most common issue with our humidifier is that your humidor is holding to much humidity..... This is a simple fix and a good problem to have with any humidor.
All you need to do is remove the humidifier from your humidor and leave the humidor open to allow some of the humidity to escape the humidor. Depending how high it is you can leave it open for about an hour.
Then close the humidor without the humidifier inside, let sit for 1 hr. or so and check the humidity level. If you have many cigars inside your humidor it may be reading your desired humidity as cigars act much like a humidifier as each cigar will hold 1.5 grams of humidity.  If you are falling short on your humidity place the humidifier back inside the humidor and check it again in an hour.
When you find that the humidor and humidifier are at the desired humidity level note the size of the crystals and only add enough water to the humidifier to allow the same size they were when your humidity was perfect.
Our Humidifier was designed to keep perfect humidity during the 6 months of winter, with that said in the winter months you may need to add a bit more water to the humidifier to maintain the desired humidity levels inside your cigar humidor.

Cigar Star Humidity Bead System for your cigar humidor!

The greatest labor for cigar lovers is maintaining the perfect relative humidity inside your cigar humidor. Cheap materials "Floral sponge" and frustrating fluctuations can be a headache for even the most careful guardian of their cigar humidor, and most of the reliable systems out there take practice to learn how to use.

While some humidity systems take a bit of doting, the Humidity Bead System by Cigar Star acts more like a workhorse. Our beads trap moisture, releasing more into a dry storage space and pulling excess out of the air to keep your smokes from drying or feeling wet.

Our newest transparent crystal humidifiers will ensure low maintenance as once you fill them with distilled water you will notice that the crystals expand inside the transparent humidifier and once they have released the humidity inside your cigar humidor they become smaller. Once you notice the humidity drop and your beads getting smaller just add distilled water let stand for a couple hours and place it back inside your cigar humidor.

This new humidifier has great reviews from all of our customers. We know you will love Cigar Star's new crystal humidifiers as they now come standard inside all our Humidors that we manufacture.
