I opened my last box of Oliva V Maduro (no wrap on these boxes) and the cigars inside were pretty wet (spongy to touch) and I'm trying to figure out what could be the cause. This box was located at the bottom of my Aristocrat Mini and have been in there for 8-9 months. I had a couple of boxes on top of this with another opened V Maduro right on top. The last cigar I had from this open box was fine and all the other opened cigar boxes around them are fine as well. Temp and humidity are fine as I have the set and forget system set to 63% humidity confirmed by a calibrated hygrometer as well.
Can a sealed box hold humidity from when I bought it as they were wet when I first got them? Never had this problem with other boxes. I'm wondering if the opened box of V maduros directly on top thus covering it perfectly was a contributing factor.
On a side note, these cigars are smoking great now.
Thanks,
Larry
