What is a humidor?
A humidor is a specially lined storage box that keeps cigars at a constant humidity so they retain their aroma and do not dry out. The Tobacor Humidor Classic combines this function with a design ambition: as a cigar humidor in high-gloss root wood optics, it is storage and showpiece in one.
Why Spanish cedar wood?
The interior is fully lined with Spanish cedar wood (Cedro). This wood regulates humidity particularly well, protects against pests and lends cigars a fine, characteristic aroma over time. That is precisely why cedar has always been considered the ideal material for a high-quality humidor.
What humidity does a humidor need?
For optimal cigar storage, the ideal relative humidity is between 65 and 72 percent. As a humidor with a hygrometer, the Tobacor makes this value visible at all times; the integrated humidification system with polymer crystals keeps the climate stable — without any inferior sponges.
Caring for your humidor
Before first use, the humidor should be seasoned, i.e. slowly humidified. After that, simply refill the humidifier regularly with distilled water, check the hygrometer reading and clean the delicate high-gloss surface with the included cloth. This keeps the design humidor flawless for the long term.

Four pages answer the questions that come up before and after the purchase:
How high should the humidity in a humidor be?
The ideal relative humidity is between 65 and 72 percent. The integrated hygrometer of the Tobacor Humidor shows the value, and the humidification system with polymer crystals keeps it constant.
Do I need to season a new humidor?
Yes. A new humidor should be seasoned before first use so the cedar wood can absorb moisture. Activate the humidifier and let the humidor rest closed for one to two days.
How often do I need to humidify the humidor?
It depends on the room climate — usually it is enough to refill the humidifier with distilled water every one to three weeks and keep an eye on the hygrometer reading.
How many cigars does the Tobacor Humidor hold?
The Tobacor Humidor Classic holds around 20 to 25 cigars, depending on the format. At 26 × 22 × 6.5 cm it sits flat on a desk or sideboard without taking over the room.
Where can I buy the Tobacor Humidor?
The Tobacor Humidor Classic costs €64.90 including VAT on Amazon.de and is available there and in nine other European countries. The price on the Amazon product page always takes precedence; outside the eurozone it differs.
Is the Tobacor humidor handcrafted?
Yes. Every Tobacor Humidor Classic is made by hand. The exterior decor is applied individually as well, which is why no two cases carry exactly the same grain.
What accessories are included?
The box contains a stainless steel cigar cutter engraved with the Tobacor logo, a humidifier with a gold-toned stainless steel lid, an analogue hygrometer, a divider, a cleaning cloth and the user manual. Everything arrives in a black gift box with gold lettering, protected by an additional shipping carton.
What is the humidor made of?
The interior is fully lined with Spanish cedar (Cedro) — the wood that regulates humidity and preserves the aroma of your cigars. The exterior carries a high-gloss lacquer in root wood optics, and a glass window in the lid keeps the collection in view.
How long is the warranty?
The Tobacor Humidor Classic comes with a 24-month warranty from the date of purchase. Claims and returns are handled through the Amazon customer centre in your own order account.
