Desktop Humidor

A good quality desktop humidor is handy when it comes to storing cigars. A humidor's primary function is to make sure the humidity is constant and prevent drying out of cigars. Ideally, the humidity levels should be around 65%-75% to keep the cigars fresh and tasty. There are many kinds of humidors and choosing the best one for a cigar hobbyist is dependent on how serious they are in their craft.

For instance, aficionados who are new to this craft would not have much use for the grand cabinet-style humidors because those can hold up to 3000 cigars at one time. Having a lot of space inside a humidor is not a good idea especially that the more empty space it has, the more humidity would drop. Desktop humidors can usually store 20 to 50 cigars at a time, which makes it more practical for those who do not want to invest hundreds of dollars in cigars. At the same time, these humidors are also ideal for those who already have a sizable humidor but needs a smaller one for other places such as the business office or the log cabin, or poker table.

The finest humidors either have the interior veneer of mahogany or Spanish cedar because they keep the humidity levels at bay. It would also be a crucial step to choose desktop humidors that are equipped with their own humidifier. They make a sophisticated addition to a desk at the office or at home. You may also want to choose a desktop humidor that has felt on its underside- this is a practical feature specifically to prevent scratches on fine wooden furniture.
