🚨 3 Signs Your Cigar Wasn’t Stored Properly
Cigars are alive — and they’ll tell you when they haven’t been cared for. Here are three red flags to watch for: 1. Dry & Cracking Wrapper 🥀 If the wrapper splits easily or feels brittle in your hands, your cigar has been over-dried (usually from low humidity). 2. Spongey or Mushy Feel 💦 Too much give when you squeeze it means it was kept in overly damp conditions. This can lead to burn issues or even mold. 3. Uneven Burn or Bitter Taste 🔥 A cigar that won’t burn straight, tunnels, or tastes sharp and harsh is often the result of poor storage conditions. 👉 Pro Tip: Keep cigars at 68%-70% humidity. A good humidor or travel case with Bóveda packs can save your investment. 💬 Have you ever lost a cigar (or even a whole box 😭) because of storage mistakes?
