Why Temperature Control Matters in Cigar Storage

Why Temperature Control Matters in Cigar Storage

Cigars are delicate products that require precise storage conditions to retain their flavor, aroma, and structure. While humidity is often highlighted as the key factor, temperature control is equally important. Together, they determine how well cigars age and how long they can be preserved in perfect condition.

Temperature and Its Impact on Cigars

  • Ideal Range: Cigars should be stored at 16°C–22°C.

  • High Temperatures: Excessive heat accelerates the aging process, causing cigars to lose nuanced flavors.

  • Low Temperatures: Cooler environments slow aging too much, leading to flat and underdeveloped cigars.

Humidity + Temperature Balance

Cigars remain most stable when both 62%–74% humidity and 16–22°C temperature are balanced. Fluctuations in either can result in cracked wrappers, mold, or even tobacco beetle infestations.
