Storing your cigars correctly is important for any cigar smoker. The best way to store a cigar is in a humidor, which properly maintains the wrapper’s oils and humidity allowing your cigars to keep, as well as develop and mature, for many years. Cigars can generally stay fresh for around three days without proper storage, but any longer than that you will start to notice a negative difference to the taste and burn of your cigar.

A question cigar smokers often ask, more so when buying New World cigars online, is, how do I store cigars which are presented in cellophane? Many cigar smokers who buy Cuban cigars may not know much about cigars in cellophane, as they are a bit of a rarity on premium Habanos. If however you are buying New World cigars such as Davidoff, Oliva and other popular brands, most of their cigars come with a thin plastic wrapper around them. If you are not planning to smoke them right away, do they need to be kept in a humidor and should you take them out of their packaging?
