    Cello is a porous material, the cigars "breathe" just fine with it on.

    Cellophane is actually made from vegetable matter if I remember correctly. I actually wish all cigars came wrapped in cellophane, because it has no effect on humidity and temperature, protects the cigar from getting banged up (prevents cracked, torn wrappers, etc) when I drunkenly re-organize my humidor, and actually keeps the aroma of the cigar stronger in my experience (for example, two of the same cigar, in my possession for a few months, one in cello, the other not, after a few months, the one not in cello will have lost the potency of it's aroma, but the one in cello will often be as pungent and bold in smell as the day I got it). Like I said, I wish all cigars came packaged in cellophane.

    this has to do with air exchange. i have noticed the same thing. i think cello ages a bit slower but im good with that.

    They only argue their point so vehemently because they know guys like me will pop in. I like my ladies naked. I don't play with my cigars when drunk.

    I took the cello off my first order of cigars. Didn't take me much longer than that to realize that I love rummaging through things, and that habit didn't work out well with unprotected sticks.
