Dubai summer and winter feel dramatically different outdoors, but your cigars live inside a controlled microclimate. Before changing RH every season, look at what your humidor is actually doing.  

Dubai creates a strange cigar-storage contradiction. Outside, extreme heat can threaten temperature stability. Inside, powerful air conditioning can create a very different environment. The answer is not simply “70/70.” It is controlled, consistent storage.

The classic humidor rules were not written for a city where cigars can move from extreme outdoor heat into aggressively air-conditioned interiors within minutes. In Dubai, stability matters as much as the number on your hygrometer.

Your hygrometer says 69% RH. Does that mean your cigar contains the perfect amount of moisture? Not necessarily. Understanding what a hygrometer actually measures changes how you think about cigar storage.

Same cigar, same blend, same storage. Change only the cut and the experience can feel surprisingly different. Here is what happens when you compare a straight cut, V-cut, and punch side by side.

From airport lounges to private jets, your cigars should travel in perfect condition. Here’s how to carry them the right way.
