Can you keep cigars in a wine cellar?

Monday, October 18 2010

Q:  I am thinking of building a wine cellar. Is it okay for my humidor to be in the cooler temperature and humidity of a wine cellar. I will still keep my stogies in the humidor and keep it properly hydrated.Wine rack/humidor
- Richard M. in Nashville, TN
A: Absolutely. A lot of cigar smoking wine enthusiasts have made room for their cigars in their wine cellars. You can even buy a combination wine-rack & humidor (see photo).

Moreover, in a way, you also answered your own question. For long term aging, cooler temperatures are quite acceptable. As long as you keep the RH in the humidor at a proper level, your cigars will be fine.
