Have definitely 'taken' to my new vice of cigar smoking. Thus far I have been picking up one or two new cigars to try after smoking one or two. I have been keeping them in a partitioned Oliva cigar box with a Boveda humidifier pack -
Now that I have found a few cigars I really like I need to store more of them on hand. So, I figured I would go low-tech and low-cost and set up a homemade humidor. I am just looking to store two dozen or so cigars at a time. I picked up an empty Cohiba Royale cigar display box that I thought would do the trick. A little weather stripping and some side latches and I think (hope) this will work out nicely.
I will place Bovida packs in this slot towards the back of the box -
And a thermometer/hygrometer up in the lid -
Placed some cigars in just as a dry run, but I will not know exactly how many cigars the box will hold until I expand my inventory.
Curious to hear if anyone else has built and poor man's humidor and how it has worked out for them.
