The closer to 50% RH you go and you run the risk of tobacco oil loss. 55% RH is where the Brits for two centuries have stored their Habanos for long term. What I find interesting about this percentage is that my Venta Airwasher is calibrated to maintain a 55% RH all winter to not only clean the air, but help keep the surrounding wood furniture from drying out in arid winter months.
Interesting. Thanks for the info... I really found that they do burn better at 60 - 65. I was keeping them at 70 - 73 when I first started and I had a hard time with the burn.
