Introducing Cigars to a New Humidor

Posts: 2 ✭
I got a new Humidor and am on day 4 of seasoning. My cigars are currently in tupperdor and have been cruising for a yr plus at 68-70 RH. When I transfer them to the new humidor, should I do it slowly over several days, or could I do it all at once?

All at once. rH will fluctuate a little. Don't panic. It's fine, and the humidor will work better as less airspace is in it, but @Bob_Luken will undoubtedly advise you to put the wooden humidor in your fireplace in favor of the tupperdor.
Seems odd that you're asking this question, though, if you have a "tupperdor" already....DZR or D. B.?Disclaimer: All trolling is provided for the sole entertainment purposes of the author only.

Simple...I have to store my
cigars in the basement, as temp is more consistent than 3rd floor which will hit mid 70's during summer days and 68 at night. Only mid floor and basement maintain consistent temps in summer, and the wife does not want Tupperware just sitting out in the main living area. I am tired of going to the basement to grab some sticks. So, I bought a quality humidor that has the exterior of furniture. Wife is happy and I do not have to go down to the basement to grab a stick. Happy wife, happy life.
Tupperdors are great, but I have never had a problem with RH control in any humidor. I don't buy crap and I take the time to season it properly. I also enjoy the process of maintaining my cigars as well as the collector aspect of the hobby...in addition to actually enjoying my sticks.
Thanks for that.
Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.
