Nothing beats Boveda

At Long Ashes Cigar Club we have one way to keep our cigars perfectly humidified: Boveda.

When I was a cigar novice I found that nothing was more frustrating than having to babysit all of my humidors, checking them weekly if not daily. I was obsessive, annoyed, and -- reminiscing -- my vigilance probably adulterated my initial cigar experience. (I'm sure many of you know what I'm talking about.)

Antiquated green sponge in trash, I tried everything: beads, crystals, gel, etc. I had heard about Boveda packs and decided to try them in my personal 100-count humidor. A week later I checked my digital hygrometer: 69%. Perfect.

Fast forward three years and all I use for my personal humidors as well as our club coolidor is Boveda.

Just wanted to share this with all of your cigar enthusiasts who may relate to the anxious state in which I found myself when beginning my cigar humidification journey.

Check out this video -- a humidification grudge match!


Worry- and hassle-free. Boveda.
