Never guess if or when to refill a humidifier in your humidor. No more hassle (or mess) of using distilled water, gels or beads. Enjoy maintenance-free cigar care with Boveda. Fluctuating humidity levels cause cigars to lose essential oils and flavors. Preserve the craft of cigar makers who expertly blend tobaccos and perfectly balance the filler, binder and wrapper. Simply unwrap and place Boveda packs in your humidor then close the lid, it’s that easy. Boveda precise humidity control packs automatically restore and maintain humidity in any type of cigar storage—desktop humidors, cabinet humidors, travel humidors, wineadors, coolerdors and tupperdors. Keep cigars ready to smoke with Boveda’s patented formula that uses all natural salt and water in its pack to ensure an exact Relative Humidity (RH). Choose from four different RH packets (65%, 69%, 72% and 75%). Check out the images to decide what percent RH and size Boveda are right for your cigar collection, your humidor, your climate. Lasts 2-4 months in a wood humidor; 6-9 months in an airtight humidor. A simple touch test will let you know when it’s time to replace Boveda—it will feel crunchy and rigid. Achieve a precise RH in a humidor. Properly preserve and age premium cigars. Protect a cigar investment with Boveda. Note: Do not mix different Boveda RH levels within the same humidor. And do not use Boveda in the same humidor with other humidification products because they will fight against each other and reduce the efficiency of Boveda.

How Do I Choose The Right Number Of Boveda?
- We recommend using at least one large 60 gram Boveda per 25 cigars your humidor holds, even if it isn’t full. It’s still air space and wood that needs proper humidification.
- Because Boveda will never over-humidify beyond the number on the pack, using more than is recommended will just work more efficiently and need to be replaced less often.
- Air-tight containers like plastic tupperdors and travel humidors don’t need as much horsepower to keep humidified because they don’t leak as much air.
The Boveda Isn’t Reaching The Number On The Pack – What’s Wrong?
This is a common question and the solution always boils down to one (or more) of these three issues:
- You didn’t season your humidor or it needs to be re-seasoned because it’s winter or you live in a very dry climate.
- Your hygrometer needs to be calibrated.
- You’re not using enough or the right size Boveda.
