2. Setup and Initial Preparation
2.1 Humidifier Preparation
- Remove the crystal gel humidifier from its packaging.
- Inject a small amount of cigar moisturizing liquid or distilled water into the humidifier. Do not overfill.
- Allow the humidifier to absorb the liquid for approximately 12 hours.
- Place the prepared humidifier inside the humidor.
2.2 Seasoning the Humidor
Before storing cigars, it is recommended to season the humidor to ensure the cedar wood absorbs sufficient moisture. This helps maintain a stable humidity level for your cigars.
- Wipe the interior cedar wood surfaces with a clean cloth lightly dampened with distilled water.
- Place the prepared humidifier inside the humidor and close the lid.
- Allow the humidor to sit for 24-48 hours, checking the hygrometer periodically. Repeat the process if the humidity is below the recommended range.
3. Operating Instructions
3.1 Monitoring Humidity with the Hygrometer
The humidor includes a high-precision hygrometer to monitor the internal humidity. The recommended humidity range for cigar storage is between 65% and 75%.
- Observe the hygrometer reading regularly to ensure optimal conditions.
- If the humidity falls below 65%, replenish the humidifier as described in Section 2.1.
- Avoid humidity levels above 80% to prevent potential mold growth.
3.2 Using the Time Memory Feature
The humidor lid features a manual time memory dial. This allows you to record the date when you store your cigars, helping you track their aging process.
- After placing cigars in the humidor, slide the indicators on the time memory dial to set the month (M) and day (D) of storage.
3.3 Secure Sealing
The humidor is equipped with rubber sealing strips and four-sided locking buckles to ensure an airtight seal, preventing moisture loss and maintaining stable internal conditions.
- Ensure all four buckles are securely fastened after closing the lid.
- Periodically check the rubber sealing strips for any signs of wear or damage.
4. Maintenance
4.1 Humidifier Refill
Refill the crystal gel humidifier with distilled water or cigar moisturizing liquid as needed, typically when the humidity drops below the recommended range of 65%.
4.2 Cleaning
- Wipe the exterior acrylic surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- For the interior cedar, use a dry, soft cloth to gently remove any dust or debris. Do not use water or cleaning solutions on the cedar.
4.3 Storage Location
Store the humidor in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent fluctuations in temperature and humidity.
5. Features and Capacity
5.1 Material and Design
- Transparent Acrylic: Durable and allows for easy viewing of cigars without opening the humidor.

5.2 Storage Capacity
The CIGARLOONG Cigar Humidor (M) can accommodate approximately 50-60 cigars, depending on their ring gauge and length. It includes a cedar wood shelf for layered storage, allowing for organized placement of different cigar types.
6. Troubleshooting
- Humidity is too low: Ensure the humidifier has sufficient distilled water or moisturizing liquid. Re-season the humidor if necessary.
- Humidity is too high: Check that the humidifier is not overfilled. Ensure the humidor is not exposed to excessive moisture or heat. Open the lid briefly to allow some moisture to escape, then re-seal.
- Lid not sealing properly: Verify that the rubber sealing strips are clean and free of debris. Ensure all four buckles are securely latched. Gently press down on the lid while latching if needed to achieve a tight seal.
