PUNCH SHORT DE PUNCH (10)

Storage Instructions

Punch Short de Punch (10) benefits from stable, classic humidor conditions to preserve its flavors and delicate wrapper. Store these short format cigars in a well seasoned humidor at 65% to 70% relative humidity and at a temperature of 65ºF to 70ºF (18ºC to 21ºC). Avoid large swings in humidity and temperature, and keep the humidor away from direct sunlight and strong odors that can be absorbed by the tobacco. For small quantities or travel, a quality travel humidor or a sealed container with a reliable 65% or 69% humidity pack will protect the cigars without over humidifying them. If you receive these cigars after shipment, place them in your humidor and allow at least 10 to 14 days for the sticks to equalize before enjoying them.

Care Tips

Handle Punch Short de Punch (10) gently to preserve the wrapper and prevent cracks. When preparing to smoke, choose a cut that suits the cigar’s short format, such as a precise straight cut or a punch, removing only enough cap to open a clear draw. Allow the cigar to rest in the humidor for a few minutes after cutting if it warms from handling. These compact cigars can be enjoyed soon after purchase, though a brief period of box aging for four to twelve weeks will often soften edges and allow the blend to settle, producing a more integrated profile. Rotate sticks occasionally in larger humidors to ensure even humidity exposure. Finally, avoid extreme cooling or heating, and never store cigars in a refrigerator or freezer, as moisture loss and flavor damage can occur.
