Cigars in humi loosing aroma

[cigarmo]

So I have just noticed that cigars in my humi dont have that strong aroma they had when they where in there original boxes. They smoke and taste fine. But that aroma you get when you open a box of cigars is gone. Is this normal or is something wrong?

Well, I keep most of my puros in boxes stored in don TJ's massive unit and the amount of aroma it emits varies - sometimes strong and others not so strong. I suspect it has something to do with the climate - inside and outside the unit.

Any temperature drops, or is the storage area/room noticeably cooler Mo?

The temp is low though low 60s but steady

As a trial, pop the humi in a warmer environment for a good few days and see if anything changes.

Rub some vaseline on the feet of your cigars to seal the flavours in. Then wrap them in aluminium foil and keep them underwater for 5 days.

Butters you and your vaseline, go back to decorating your ceiling.

Almost every cigar I've ever bought regardless of retailer has been massively overhumidified: we buyers like squeezy cigars [emoji3] I've always found cigars from French retailers, particularly Parisian, to be quite 'wet'. Wet cigars IMO always give off loads of aroma but when they dry out to normal humidor conditions, the aroma is less intense. I imagine they'll be just as tasty when you spark them up. I bought a box of Sanchos that when pinched actually met in the middle. 12 months later they're quite firm and a lot of aroma had gone but they're still great

You and your soggy French sticks ay, Stevie le boy

I've noticed over humidification in Spain and I know Monks has highlighted that he's known the same in Italian LCDHs. Whether the same applies to other countries or stock would be an interesting question.
