•How to Store Your Cigars
The first thing to think about when preparing to store your cigars is to decide how big of a humidor you will need.

•From Tobacco to Cigar
Cigars are not green, but the leaves they come from are. In order to get the cigar tobacco to turn brown, a process called fermentation is used. Fermentation isn't just for turning greens brown, however. It is mostly used to mellow out the taste of the tobacco. Fermentation also removes some of the nicotine that was in the cigar leaf. The bottom line is that green cigars would be unsmokable, so we ferment the leaf.
Once the tobacco leaves have been picked, they are separated, and then...
