Since the day Cuban cigars were discovered, they have enjoyed a healthy growth with period of slowness every once in a while. That is just a natural curve for things, you go up, you come down, you stay steady for a while, you get the idea. Cuban cigars once professionally packaged, were ready to go right off the bat. You would just open a cuban cigar box of your favorite Montecristo cigars or what not and go from there. Sometimes you would share them with a rest of your friends, sometimes you would simply keep them to your yourself.
I think this is where they discovered the art of aging a Cuban cigar. No one really knows, but most good things are discovered by accident. So is the case here, especially when it comes to an aged fine Cuban cigar. Cuban cigars taste great fresh from their case, but if you store them for a few years (Just like wine), you will have something incredible on your hands. This is why the Cuban cigar brand Cohiba is considered the top of the line cigar in the world. Before the actual construction of the cigar, the tobacco leaves used are aged for sometime.
Yes just like some great tasting wine (Which goes great with Cuban cigars by the way), you can definitely bring the most out of your favorite Cuban cigars by simply letting them age. The best way to age and preserve your Cuban cigar for the longest time is by getting an item called a humidor. A humidor’s job is retain the cigar’s properties which include the construction, taste etc. A humidor produces the same temperature required for you to have the perfect Cuban cigars, all the time. The best temperature is between 65 to 70 degrees and with a humidor, you can definitely maintain that.
The good thing is that Cuban cigar humidors range. So you can get the one that is right just for you. If you like to travel, get a portable humidor, if you have some room in your house, pay someone to create a room humidor. If you are like most people or cigar enthusiasts who like to showcase their cigars to their friends and family, get a table humidor. The choices today are endless when it comes to proper cigar storage. So take your time especially if you are a box buyer.
What you can do is start off with a little cheap humidor to see how it works and go from their. Their is nothing like aged Cuban cigars my friend. The great thing is that everything gets better when you age a Cuban cigar. The construction, the the taste and just the overall feel of the cigar. Invest in a humidor today and if you really want to get starterd, get some tupperware and put some water at the bottom and than place your cigar on a piece of cedar or something. Make sure it’s not touching the water and this goes for the cedar and the wood. Enjoy!
