What Do You Need to Care for Your Cigars?

Taking care of a cigar isn’t as much trouble as some people might suggest, but it is necessary for maximum merriment. Here are some of the accessories at Gothamcigars.com that will ensure you enjoy the experience.

1. Humidors

The freshness of a cigar is very important if you want to have a good smoke. To maintain the freshness of a cigar, you don’t just need any other box, you’ll need a humidor. A humidor is not just a box; it is an airtight container that keeps cigars fresh, by maintaining its optimum temperature and moisture level. The optimum humidity level in a humidor is about 70-75% while the optimum temperature is about 68-70 degrees Fahrenheit (20-21 degrees Celsius).

Some of the best humidors in our collection include the CAO Vision, the Gotham Cigars Desktop Humidor, the Humidor Supreme Soldier Strong and the Humidor Supreme Fighter Jet.

2. Cigar Cases

There is nothing complicated about a cigar case. It is a carrier for keeping your sticks on the go. The cigar cases available in our collection are the Empty Cigar Box and the J.C. Newman Premium 2-Cigar Case Black.

3. Cigar Cutters

When it comes to clipping your cigar, you want a proper cigar cutter. Even though some people will claim that they can clip a cigar using scissors or even a knife, it’s absolutely a recipe for disaster. A badly cut cigar can totally ruin the smoking experience, so it’s wiser to use a cutter or a punch to prepare your stick for smoking.

Our impressive collection of cigar cutters includeVilliger Cutter, Vertigo Cutter, Oliva Cigar Cutter, AJ Fernandez Guillotine Cutter, and Gotham Cigars Single Blade Cutter.

4. Cigar Lighters

Cigar toasting and lighting is part of the engaging ritual of smoking a cigar like a connoisseur. In case you’re a novice, when you need to light a cigar you cannot use a matchbox unless it’s a special cedar stick. 

The most convenient and common way to light cigars is by using Butane lighters. At Gotham Cigars we have quite an exhibition of these. They include AJ Fernandez Lighter, Rocky Patel Icon Gun Metal 2 Flame Lighter, Altadis Torch Lighters, Camacho Single Torch Lighter, Hoyo De Monterrey Excalibur Lighter, Firebird Big Burn Table Lighter, and Villiger Dual Flame Lighteramong others.

5. Humidification

The importance of keeping your cigars in a temperature-controlled environment cannot be overemphasized. So, it goes without saying that you have to keep an eye on your humidor to ensure that the moisture level stays optimal.

What if you just can’t find the time? A crystal gel humidifier is what you need. What is it?

A crystal gel humidifier provides a slow and steady release of constant moisture to ensure that your humidity is at 70%. It contains crystal gel balls that you can refill with water every 1-2 months. And as long as your crystal gel humidifier stays in your humidor, you can be sure the humidity will remain at a constant 70%

At Gothamcigars.com, we have our own superb gel humidification jar called the Gotham Humidifier Gel Jar.
