bought a humidor, placed your cigars inside, and noticed the little gauge on the lid. Maybe it reads 68%. Maybe it reads 84%. Maybe it hasn\u2019t moved in six months.<\/p>\n<p>That number is <strong>RH, or relative humidity<\/strong>, and it plays an important role in keeping your cigars in good smoking condition.<\/p>\n<p>Too much moisture can make cigars difficult to draw and burn. Too little can leave wrappers brittle and flavors harsh. Understanding the right <strong>humidor humidity level<\/strong> is one of the simplest ways to protect your collection.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rh-rule\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-quick\">\n<div class=\"rh-kicker\">The Quick Answer<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-quick-title\">What Is the Best RH for a Humidor?<\/div>\n<p>For most cigar collections, <strong>65\u201369% relative humidity<\/strong> is a practical starting point. Keep your humidor in a cool, stable environment, ideally around <strong>65\u201370\u00b0F<\/strong> when possible.<\/p>\n<p>The traditional 70\/70 rule is still a useful reference, but consistency matters more than maintaining exactly 70%.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-fig\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Luxurious-Cigar-Lounge-Still-Life.png\" alt=\"Luxury cigar humidor and cigars in an elegant lounge setting\" loading=\"eager\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"rh-cap\">The right humidity helps preserve a cigar\u2019s texture, flavor, and smoking experience.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What Does RH Mean in a Humidor?<\/h2>\n<p>RH stands for <strong>relative humidity<\/strong>. It measures the amount of water vapor in the air compared with the maximum amount the air could hold at its current temperature.<\/p>\n<p>The word <em>relative<\/em> matters because temperature affects humidity readings. As temperature changes, RH can change even when the actual amount of moisture in the air stays the same.<\/p>\n<p>Cigars are made from natural tobacco leaves. Over time, those leaves absorb or release moisture depending on the environment around them. A humidor creates a controlled space that helps tobacco maintain its flexibility and smoking characteristics.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rh-note\">\n<p><strong>Mike\u2019s Tip:<\/strong> A humidor isn\u2019t simply a box that adds moisture. It\u2019s a controlled environment designed to keep your cigars stable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What RH Should Your Humidor Be At?<\/h2>\n<p>The traditional guideline is the <strong>70\/70 rule<\/strong>: 70\u00b0F and 70% relative humidity.<\/p>\n<p>However, many cigar smokers prefer slightly lower humidity levels. A range of 65\u201369% RH is common because it can help maintain a comfortable draw and reliable burn.<\/p>\n<p>Some smokers prefer conditions closer to 62\u201365%, particularly for certain larger cigars. There isn\u2019t one perfect number for every collection.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rh-fig\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Humidor-Humidity-Guide-Infographic.png\" alt=\"Humidor humidity infographic showing low, ideal, and high relative humidity levels\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"rh-cap\">Understanding the difference between dry, ideal, and overly humid cigar storage.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-range\">\n<div class=\"rh-range-item rh-low\">\n<div class=\"rh-range-num\">&lt;60%<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-range-lbl\">Too Dry<\/div>\n<p>Wrappers can become brittle, and cigars may burn too quickly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-range-item rh-ideal\">\n<div class=\"rh-range-num\">65\u201369%<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-range-lbl\">Ideal Starting Range<\/div>\n<p>A practical humidity target for many cigar collections.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-range-item rh-high\">\n<div class=\"rh-range-num\">&gt;75%<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-range-lbl\">Too Humid<\/div>\n<p>Excess moisture can affect burning and increase mold concerns.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-note\">\n<p><strong>Remember:<\/strong> A humidor that consistently holds 67% RH is generally preferable to one that fluctuates between 60% and 75%.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What Happens When Humidor Humidity Is Too High?<\/h2>\n<p>When cigars absorb excessive moisture, they may become soft or spongy. They can also become difficult to light and keep burning.<\/p>\n<p>Common warning signs include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A tight or difficult draw.<\/li>\n<li>Uneven burning or frequent relighting.<\/li>\n<li>Muted or unpleasant flavors.<\/li>\n<li>Cigars that feel unusually soft or swollen.<\/li>\n<li>Increased mold risk when high humidity persists.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Prolonged high humidity, particularly when combined with warm temperatures, can create conditions favorable to mold. If you notice suspicious spots on your cigars, our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/blog\/cigar-plume-or-mold\/\">cigar plume versus mold<\/a> explains what to look for.<\/p>\n<p>Warm storage can also increase tobacco-beetle concerns, making temperature control especially important.<\/p>\n<h2>What Happens When Humidor Humidity Is Too Low?<\/h2>\n<p>Dry cigars can be just as frustrating as overly humidified ones. When tobacco loses too much moisture, wrappers become less flexible and may eventually crack.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cracked or brittle wrappers.<\/li>\n<li>Fast, hot burning.<\/li>\n<li>Harsh or thin flavors.<\/li>\n<li>A loose draw.<\/li>\n<li>Loss of some of the cigar\u2019s original character.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Mildly dry cigars can sometimes be gradually reconditioned over days or weeks. However, severely dried tobacco may never fully regain its original smoking qualities. Avoid trying to restore a cigar quickly by applying water directly to the tobacco.<\/p>\n<p>Some experienced smokers briefly dry-box a cigar before smoking, but that short-term technique is different from long-term storage at excessively low humidity.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Temperature Matters as Much as Humidity<\/h2>\n<p>Because relative humidity depends on temperature, the two should be monitored together. Try to keep your humidor in a cool, consistent location, ideally around <strong>65\u201370\u00b0F<\/strong> when possible.<\/p>\n<p>Avoid placing your humidor near:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Direct sunlight or windowsills.<\/li>\n<li>Heating and air-conditioning vents.<\/li>\n<li>Garages or exterior walls exposed to extreme temperatures.<\/li>\n<li>Appliances that generate heat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>An interior closet shelf can be a better storage location than a beautiful but sunny display table.<\/p>\n<p>Humidity can also fluctuate with the seasons. Our article about <a href=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/blog\/i-think-my-humidors-have-seasonal-affective-disorder\/\">seasonal humidity changes in humidors<\/a> explains why winter heating and changing weather can affect cigar storage.<\/p>\n<h2>How Do You Know If Your Hygrometer Is Accurate?<\/h2>\n<div class=\"rh-split\">\n<div class=\"rh-split-media\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Luxurious-Gold-Segmented-Gauge-Dial.png\" alt=\"Elegant gold humidity gauge showing humidity measurement zones\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-split-copy\">\n<div class=\"rh-kicker\">Accuracy Comes First<\/div>\n<p>Your hygrometer measures the humidity inside your humidor, but not every gauge provides an accurate reading. Some inexpensive analog hygrometers can be significantly inaccurate.<\/p>\n<p>Digital models are often easier to read, but they should still be checked periodically. A hygrometer is only useful when its reading is accurate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Calibrate Your Hygrometer Before Trusting It<\/h3>\n<p>A properly performed salt test creates an environment close to 75% RH, allowing you to compare the expected humidity with the reading on your hygrometer.

These six steps can help you create a stable environment for your cigars.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rh-step\">\n<div class=\"rh-step-num\">STEP 01<\/div>\n<h3>Season a New Humidor Before Using It<\/h3>\n<p>New Spanish cedar is naturally dry. If you place cigars inside before the wood has absorbed enough moisture, the cedar can pull moisture from the tobacco.<\/p>\n<p>Use a purpose-made seasoning pack or follow the manufacturer\u2019s recommended seasoning method. Allow the humidor to stabilize before adding cigars. Never soak the cedar or pour water directly onto the interior wood.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-fig rh-medium\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Open-Black-Humidor-with-Brass-Hygrometer.png\" alt=\"Open black wooden cigar humidor with a brass hygrometer\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"rh-cap\">Properly seasoning a wooden humidor helps create a stable storage environment.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-step\">\n<div class=\"rh-step-num\">STEP 02<\/div>\n<h3>Choose the Right Humidification Method<\/h3>\n<p>There are several common ways to maintain humidity inside a humidor.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Humidification pouches:<\/strong> Ready-to-use pouches such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/lotus-humidification-pouch-60-gram\">Lotus Humidification Pouch<\/a> release moisture steadily and never need filling.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Foam or crystal humidifiers:<\/strong> Traditional devices used with distilled water or a <a href=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/humideze-humidification-solution-for-humidors\">humidification solution<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Electronic humidifiers:<\/strong> Often useful for larger humidors and cabinet-style storage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Explore <a href=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/humidors\/humidors-humidification\">humidification devices at Mike\u2019s Cigars<\/a> to find an option suited to your setup.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-step\">\n<div class=\"rh-step-num\">STEP 03<\/div>\n<h3>Use Distilled Water When Required<\/h3>\n<p>Tap water contains minerals that may leave deposits inside certain humidification devices. When your humidifier requires water, distilled water is generally the better choice.<\/p>\n<p>Always follow the manufacturer\u2019s instructions. Some devices require a specific solution, while sealed two-way humidity packs should not be filled with water.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-step\">\n<div class=\"rh-step-num\">STEP 04<\/div>\n<h3>Keep Your Humidor Reasonably Full<\/h3>\n<p>Cigars and cedar help buffer changes in moisture. A nearly empty humidor may experience more noticeable humidity fluctuations than one containing a reasonable collection.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re building your collection, <a href=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/cigar-samplers\">cigar samplers<\/a> offer a way to explore different blends without committing to a full box.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-step\">\n<div class=\"rh-step-num\">STEP 05<\/div>\n<h3>Choose a Stable Storage Location<\/h3>\n<p>Avoid moving your humidor between rooms with significantly different temperatures. Choose a cool, consistent location away from sunlight, heating vents, and other heat sources.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-step\">\n<div class=\"rh-step-num\">STEP 06<\/div>\n<h3>Check Your Humidity Weekly<\/h3>\n<p>You don\u2019t need to open your humidor every hour to check RH. Opening the lid allows humidified air to escape, causing a temporary drop in the reading.<\/p>\n<p>Once your humidor is stable, checking approximately once a week is usually sufficient. Monitor more frequently when setting up a new humidor or troubleshooting a problem.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-note\">\n<p><strong>Mike\u2019s Tip:<\/strong> Don\u2019t chase every small change in humidity. Give your humidor time to recover after opening it before making adjustments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What If Your Humidor Still Won\u2019t Hold Humidity?<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019ve seasoned the wood, calibrated your hygrometer, and selected an appropriately sized humidification device, but RH continues to fall, the problem may be the humidor\u2019s seal.<\/p>\n<p>A simple paper test can help identify a weak seal. Close the lid gently on a dollar bill or thin strip of paper, leaving part of it outside. Pull slowly. You should feel some resistance. Repeat the test around different parts of the lid. While not a precise measurement, it may help reveal areas where the seal is loose.<\/p>\n<p>Other possible causes include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A warped lid.<\/li>\n<li>Damaged or poorly fitted seals.<\/li>\n<li>Insufficient humidification capacity.<\/li>\n<li>Frequent temperature changes.<\/li>\n<li>An inaccurate hygrometer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For more troubleshooting advice, read our guide on <a href=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/blog\/my-humidor-wont-keep-its-humidity\/\">what to do when your humidor won\u2019t keep its humidity<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Humidor Humidity: Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<div class=\"rh-faq\">\n<h3>Is 70% RH too high for cigars?<\/h3>\n<p>Not necessarily. The traditional 70\/70 rule remains a useful reference, but some cigars may smoke better at slightly lower humidity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-faq\">\n<h3>Is 65% RH good for cigars?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. Many cigar enthusiasts prefer approximately 65% RH because it can help produce a firmer cigar and a more consistent burn.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-faq\">\n<h3>What happens if my humidor reaches 80% RH?<\/h3>\n<p>A brief high reading isn\u2019t automatically a disaster, but prolonged humidity around 80% can cause cigars to become overly moist and increase mold concerns. Verify the reading and correct conditions gradually.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-faq\">\n<h3>How long does it take a humidor to stabilize?<\/h3>\n<p>It depends on the humidor\u2019s size, construction, seal, and humidification method. A newly seasoned wooden humidor may require several days or longer to establish stable conditions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-faq\">\n<h3>Can you restore cigars that have dried out?<\/h3>\n<p>Mildly dry cigars can sometimes be gradually reconditioned over days or weeks. However, severely dried tobacco may not recover all its original flavor and smoking qualities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rh-faq\">\n<h3>How often should I check my humidor humidity?<\/h3>\n<p>Once your humidor is stable, checking about once a week is generally sufficient.
