Boveda 69% RH 2-Way Humidity Control

Boveda is the world’s first two-way humidity control for cigar humidors, guaranteeing a constant level of humidity without the fluctuations or cycles that occur when using refillable devices. Preserving natural oils and sugars enable the cigars to improve with age. Have more than one humidor? This is the most versatile Boveda ever! Use one (1) Size 60 Boveda for every 25 TOTAL cigars a humidor can hold. Example: For a 100-cigar capacity humidor, use four (4) Size 60 Boveda at once. For bigger humidors, use Size 320. With Boveda you choose what relative humidity (RH) you need based on the product you are protecting. 70% relative humidity is a good average for all cigars. Studies have shown that certain cigars are best and reveal their peak taste and character when equilibrated and stored at a specific humidity level between 60% RH and 72% RH - as dictated by the characteristics of the cigar’s blend and primarily the cigar’s wrapper. Cuban cigars are best at 60-65% RH; cigars with a Cameroon wrapper are best at 70-72%; Nicaragua, 68-70%; cigars with a Dominican wrapper, such as the Fuente and OpusX are best at 60-65%; cigars with a Connecticut Shade wrapper will not be affected between 65-72% RH. The Boveda packets do this the correct way—gradually—over a period of just ten days. This gradual process ensures that the wood does not acquire mold, a mustiness smell, or warp - as commonly happens when following traditional seasoning methods of spraying, sponging or wiping the box down with water. Boveda packets are the simplest, most effective and reliable way to develop a perfectly seasoned humidor. The road to Boveda’s status as the top global manufacturer of humidity control was not an easy one, but when it came to our commitment to protecting your passions, there was no room for compromises and our loyal consumers will tell you that commitment has paid off.
