So I'm pretty new to the cigar world, I generally smoke one 2-3 times a month when I get together with friends at a local cigar shop. I always just pick up 1 or 2 there since I don't have a humidor of my own. I found this one that seems to fit my needs as far as price and size goes. https://www.cigarsinternational.com/humidors/38324/arcadian-humidor/#p-58987
It says it has a humidification unit. Does that mean I don't need any of the gel or other type of humidification device? Basically, if I were to go with this humidor what would I need to get started? I know I probably need a hygrometer. Are there any other comparable humidors that you would recommend? Thanks |
always go with a digital hygrometer. and toss the humi device that comes with it. i use silica kitty litter. but other folks use HCM Beads, Boveda packs, or the gel stuff. season it properly, and keep the humidity around 65%, and always think bigger. thats my advice.
