    What was the altitude? Couldn't be more than 8000 give or take.

    About 7,000. My cigars are pretty dialed in for sea level with low humidity which means they are fairly "wet" as otherwise they'll burn way too fast. Had I thought of things in advance I would have probably let the thing dry out in the dry air a bit beforehand and it would have been fine.
    Jesus you are a fucking nerd. Cigar physics superiority guy! My Daddy used to smoke Macanudo Ascots on the chairlift rides at like 9000 feet.
    Sounds like a man after my own heart. Spent many an afternoon with Master Taint by my side doing the same thing.

    I'm by no means any kind of cigar expert but once I had my own humidor with a decent hygrometer it was completely game changing for me. Now I pay close attention to such things.

    I can't afford cigars or fancy boxes to keep them in. Thanks white people.

    Ziplock and a lettuce leaf works too. So there’s that.

    I use lemon, orange, or lime rinds in a bag when I travel. Works great.

    FYI I told Yellow about this but this is what I got to start and it actually works pretty damn good once I got it dialed in. Takes more work than a bigger/better one to get it there but once it's dialed in so long as you leave it shut most of the time it is pretty effective. Probably not as important in the Souf' to keep your cigars in a box though. My grand father in law in florida just keeps them in regular boxes bc the humidity is so damn high.

    Humidor for under $30
