Do tubos help regulate humidity?

Friday, October 07 2011

Q: RyJ ClemenceauI bought some Romeo y julieta Clemenceau en tubos and was wondering how long they will stay fresh if not in a humidor. Does the tube help regulate humidity at all?
- Matt Swan (city/state not included)

A: The tube is used primarily for protecting the cigar, not regulating humidity. Additionally the Clemenceau tube is not hermetically sealed, so you must put them in your humidor (with or without the tube). Otherwise, they will begin to dry out within a week or two depending on where you store them.
