If you are familiar with using a humidifier in your home, you know that keeping just the right amount of moisture in the air can improve dry skin conditions and make breathing gentler on your nose and lungs. Well, it turns out that many materials benefit from the right amount of humidity.

Similar to how a wine cooler keeps your vino collection from spoiling or how a refrigerator allows you to select the perfect temperature and humidity to keep your food fresh, a humidor keeps cigars, cigarettes and pipe tobacco in the perfect moisture-controlled environment. Too much or too little humidity can damage tobacco products. A cigar humidifier helps protect your collection.

When used and maintained properly, a humidor box can keep tobacco products fresh for years. This makes a humidor a valuable investment for anyone who wants to store a tobacco product collection long term, either for regular use or special occasions.

If you love to entertain, you may want to keep a humidor cabinet by your bar cart. Savoring a good cigar is similar to enjoying good wine, it requires a certain amount of knowledge and preparation in terms of selection and care.

In an office setting, an electric humidor can come in handy when you want to offer cigars in celebration of a successful venture. In fact, you may even want one if you are upgrading a home office to a place where you will take meetings in person.

For those who want to design a home game room, it can be convenient to put the cigar humidor cabinet alongside a pool table, dart board or retro arcade games. Complete the space with a kegerator to keep fresh beer on tap and a beverage fridge for other drink options. Your house will become the preferred location for weekly game or poker nights in no time.
