How do I use a Boveda Humidor Starter Kit to set up a humidor?

The Boveda Humidor Starter Kit is a two-step process. Complete instructions and everything you need comes in the kit to: 1) Season your wood humidor 2) Provide ongoing cigar protection for the first three months.  

DIRECTIONS FOR BOVEDA HUMIDOR STARTER KITS

STEP ONE: SEASONING

  1. Remove the clear overwrap from the Boveda 84% RH packs. 
  2. Place all of the unwrapped seasoning packs inside the EMPTY wooden humidor. 
  3. Close the lid and DO NOT open the humidor for 14 days—no matter what the hygrometer readings are.
  4. After 14 days, open the humidor. Remove the seasoning packs and discard them—they aren’t reusable.

STEP TWO: ONGOING CIGAR PROTECTION

  1. Remove the clear overwrap from the Boveda 72% RH packs.
  2. Place all of the unwrapped Boveda 72% RH packs inside the humidor. For best results, you want Boveda’s water vapor to circulate in and around your cigars. So feel free to place Boveda:
    • Under the cigar tray or shelf (If there are vertical slots, make sure your cigars don’t block these air holes.)
    • On top of your cigars.
    • Inside a Boveda Holder that’s affixed to the lid. (If your humidor didn’t come with a holder, you can order yours here.)
  3. Now you can move your cigars into your new humidor.

JOB WELL DONE! IT'S TIME TO CELEBRATE WITH A CIGAR.
