Stupid Question?

Dustin1981

I am sure this is a dumb question but I am going to ask anyways. I picked up a couple of AVO #2's today and they came in tubes. Should I keep them in the tubes once I have them in the humidor or should I take them out? Thanks for putting up with my ignorance.

I keep mine in the tubos. There are a couple of reasons, the main one being that the tubo protects the cigar from any damage. To a certain degree, I think a lot of tubos are about aesthetics, I mean they sure do look attractive, don't they? Another point is that the tubo allows the cigar to age independently of outside factors, such as surrounding cigars, Spanish cedar lining, etc..., all of which can influence to overall taste of the cigar over time. But as Gene said, it comes down to what you want to do with them.

I leave mine in. But once I'm done smoking the cigar I keep the tube and use it when I go play golf to keep my cigars from getting damaged in my golf bag. I also use them for mailing single sticks to friends.

Don't Worry about the question.... But Leave the cigar in the Tubo for any amount of time!

That's a great idea about sending singles. I'm gonna start saving my tubes now. Thx!
