My secret to a perfect humidor… The Cigar Oasis

I started out like most beginner cigar fans..with a relatively small humidor. In the early days, I would smoke my small inventory rather quickly. Therefore, I never really saw the effects of keeping a good consistent humidor on my cigars. Once I purchased  a larger (50 count) model I began to to see how difficult this could be.

I found myself constantly (almost daily) checking the humidor. What started as a fun hobby…became work. I was determined to find a better way to keep cigars over time without the hassle. That’s when I discovered the “Cigar Oasis”. This little machine took away all the aggravation and has never let me down. 

The Cigar Oasis is relatively compact. It has a paper-thin cord that slips right thru the crack of your humidor opening, which allows it to be plugged into a power outlet at all times. The top of the unit has a digital display that you can adjust and always reads the current humidity level of your humidor. I have a glass top humidor and can check this without even opening the lid.

This usually keeps it going for at least a month. There is very little additional work and I receive many many compliments on the condition of my cigars… Especially the ones that have been aging over the years. 

 

In conclusion…. I highly recommend the Cigar Oasis for your medium to large humidors (Especially when storing cigars for longer periods of time).  I know that there are several local shops in my area (and I assume yours) that will carry the Cigar Oasis. If not then you can definitely find them online. Price is based on model size and ranges between $80 -$200.
