Q. Do small cigars (in the tins) need humidification?
- Roger D.
A. In most cases, particularly the dry-cured,
machine-made "café" cigars such as
Panter (shown)
Dannemann,
Schimmelpennick, etc., do not need any humidification. However,
handmade longfiller small cigars like
Cohiba Pequeños,
Padron Corticos,
CAO Gold Karats, and the like, should be kept in a
humidor.
