I like to take cigars with me when I travel, like a lot of cigar enthusiasts. It’s a right of passage trying to find some good spots to smoke, away from home and your usual haunts. The biggest challenge there is packing everything I need. That’s where cigar caddys come in handy. Of course, there are other cigar cases with similar designs, too. Many of them include spaces for cutters, lighters, and beyond. But what if you don’t want to bring five to ten cigars? What if you just want to bring one, for a day trip, for your commute to work, or wherever you’re headed? Allow me to introduce you to the Cigador.
The Cigador is a single-cigar travel humidor, crafted to match the premium and elegant style of the greater industry. Imagine a tactical, sleek design, or an all-wood polished and exquisite design and you’re halfway there.
Like most accessories, you can find a Cigador that matches your personal style and interests. The elegant wood versions come in African blackwood, Cocobolo and titan silver, and more. You can also opt for the more practical tactical series — pulled a Dr. Seuss there — with a lightweight aluminum cylinder and composite exterior, textured almost like rubber. The tactical one comes in a few unique colors like purple, green, red, and so on.
A built-in hygrometer, resting center stage, shows you the current RH level inside, perfect for storing your most precious daily smokes. A hydrating cap at the top accommodates either distilled water or hydration packs. Meanwhile, each Cigador can hold cigars up to a 60 ring gauge. Those big boys that you’d find Leif Lunatic smoking won’t fit, unfortunately.
Basically, you pop open the top, slide in your cigar, close it up, and away you go. You’ll need to carry a lighter and cutter with you, but something tells me you probably have that covered anyway.
Outside of making a fashion statement, because the premium-variety look stunning, they’re ideal for carrying a single cigar. You might not always want to lug around a bigger case, or you might not even have time for more than one cigar, depending on where you’re going. These travel humidors are perfect for something like that.
Because they also incorporate humidity, you could essentially leave the cigar in the case for a few days, especially if you’re going to leave it in your car or somewhere like an office.
If a single cigar humidor is not for you, then you might also want to check out the Cigador X Klaro humidor kits, which are more traditional in design.
Either way, it’s a pretty cool idea. It’s also another way to accessorize your favorite hobby, especially if you’re a true cigar aficionado. You might even be able to match your suit, if you can pull it off. If that’s you, godspeed. I don’t wear suits. Too hot and I sweat like a racehorse.
If you want one, you can grab them at Cigador official, Best Cigar Prices, and a few other online retailers starting at $90 per humidor.
