How can I properly store a cigar?
Store them in a sealed bag with a damp paper towel. Ideal conditions for cigar storage are 70 degrees and 70% humidity. You want to keep the cigar in a dark area and out of the air. If a cigar dries out, the wrapper begins to flake off in pieces and will ruin the experience of the cigar. Not sure where you bought your cigar, but the shop might have “humi-pouches” or “humi-pillows.” They are little pillows filled with something that expands when wet. After it gets wet, it maintains the 70% humidity level needed. They are typically cheap, usually less than a dollar.
