Will these cigarillos benefit from a humidor?

[Abacus1234]

I'm slightly ashamed to be showing my face around all of these serious cigar smokers, because I definitely do not qualify. Really the only cigar size I like are cigarillos, because I rarely feel like smoking for more than like 20 minutes at a time. I have built up quite a collection of cigarillo tins, but I have never been sure if I should be worried they'll go bad. I have a few CAO Bella Vanilla tins, and some Ghurka Cognac cigarillos. Are these going to go bad if I just leave them in my cigar drawer? I know I'm probably stunning all of you with incredible ignorance about such a simply obvious question, but please bare with me. Thanks very much!

Sounds like some good candidates for a Tupperdor!

I keep my flavored cigars in a small humidor separate from my good smokes, they seem to benefit from 65% humidity.

no worries, you gotta start somewhere.
and at least by cigarillos you're not talking swisher apple flavored wood tips (although i hear good things)

tupperdor sounds plausible, and simple. toss a water pillow in there, or some beads
Get a little 50 ct humidor on the cheap... I can't attest too much to the benefits but it can't hurt, plus having a humidor is fun, and cool.

you wanna be cool don't you?

What's the capacity of your "flavored humidor" in comparison to your "natural humidor." I've enjoyed a few of the Drew Estate ACID cigars and would love to have them on hand, but I just can't put them with my natural cigars. Do they sell 20 count or less or should I go with something improvised and homemade?

Tupperware or a small Igloo cooler if you don't want to invest in an actual small desktop humidor. The humidors can be found cheap, though, if you search around.

It certainly couldn't hurt to hold them at a good humidity, either.

Thanks very much to all who responded. Right now my temporary solution has been some tupperware with a few folded paper towels slighly dampened. This will probably have to do until I can get a desktop humidor. Because I definitely want to be cool!

That's the exact set-up I started with. :thumbs:
