Boveda – Perfect Humidity Control for Cigars
Combining technical expertise with creative ingenuity, the interior of a Boveda pack contains water and specially formulated salts. A membrane ensures that water is either absorbed from or released into the surrounding air as needed. This small, inconspicuous pack reliably regulates humidity in its environment. Issues such as drying out or mold formation in cigars become a thing of the past. Even renowned manufacturers such as Arturo Fuente rely on Boveda to ensure the quality of their products.
An American Success Story
Like many great ideas, Boveda’s story began in a garage in the United States. Driven by the founders’ vision, the idea evolved into a sophisticated system. However, it took some time before Boveda was able to provide humidors of various sizes with optimal humidity. The Spanish word “Boveda,” meaning “vault,” reflects the mission of creating perfect storage conditions.
In the early 2000s, Boveda began to rise. Partnerships with leading cigar producers helped the company gain influence. With the legalization of cannabis in the first U.S. states, Boveda also became a sought-after solution in this industry. Today, the accessory specialist Xikar handles distribution in the U.S., which is why the products are often branded with the Xikar logo.
The Boveda Product Range at a Glance
For first-time users of Boveda Packs, the various percentage labels might seem confusing at first. But it’s quite simple: Cigars store best at 69 or 72 percent humidity. For drier tobacco or aging, 65 percent is recommended. Cannabis and dried herbs thrive at levels between 58 and 62 percent. Other applications, such as certain wooden musical instruments, require an individual approach that extends beyond our cigar expertise.
Starter Solutions and More
For first-time use, the Boveda Starter Kit is recommended, available for humidors up to 50 cigars or for humidors up to 100 cigars. It contains packs for 84 percent humidity for initial seasoning and 72 percent for ongoing use. The Boveda One-Step Calibration Kit allows you to easily verify your hygrometer’s accuracy. Simply place it overnight in the included bag with the Boveda pack – and you’re done!
For straightforward storage without a humidor, the Humidor Bag is a great option. Just place your cigars inside – it doesn’t get any simpler.
