\nIf you are reading this you are probably considering buying a Michael Dixon Humidor.\u00a0 If so we would like to tell you about humidor humidifiers and moisturizers, specifically the Humigar.\u00a0 The Humigar moisturizing system is exclusive to Michael Dixon Humidors and provides the ideal amount of humidification for our premium cigar humidors. It contains a piece of floral foam that absorbs water and slowly lets it evaporate into the interior of the humidor and into the cigars. \u00a0It is considered \u201cpassive\u201d humidification.\u00a0 (Click for more information on \u201cpassive\u201d and \u201cactive\u201d moisturizers.)<\/a> \u00a0The photo here shows a “hybrid” D model humidor with the black Humigar, the tray for Boveda packs, and a hygrometer in place on the lid.
\n\"Cigar<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Direct water evaporation is the fastest and most effective way to apply moisture into cigars which are like mini-sponges.\u00a0 All our high-quality humidors come with a Humigar moisturizer and instructions about exactly how to keep it working efficiently.\u00a0 Using distilled water is best as tap water contains minerals that can\u00a0clog the foam.\u00a0 Do not use polyethylene glycol instead of distilled water as the glycol solution will eventually block the water from entering the foam.<\/p>\n

The most effective and desirable humidor humidifiers need to be sized relative to the size of the humidor.\u00a0 Small moisturizers don\u2019t work in large humidors that hold 100 cigars or more.\u00a0 Conversely, large moisturizers should not be used in small humidors that hold 20 to 30 cigars.\u00a0 Humigars come in 3 sizes to accommodate the sizes of Michael Dixon Humidors.<\/p>\n

Another option or addition for your \u00a0B, C and D model Michael Dixon Humidor would be the Boveda pack which contains a salt crystal liquid solution that controls the humidity inside the humidor at roughly 70%.\u00a0 Our handcrafted humidors come with either the Humigar alone or with the Humigar and Boveda trays together.\u00a0 We call these \u201chybrid\u201d humidors.<\/p>\n

In summary, the best passive moisturizing system for your desktop humidor is the type that uses the foam with distilled water such as our Humigar.\u00a0 A Humigar provides a fast recovery to 70% humidity after the lid has been opened, the cigars removed and the lid re-closed.\u00a0 For more information about Michael Dixon Humidors and their Humigar moisturizing system, call the shop at 301-432-6131 and speak to Michael directly.\u00a0 You may also purchase a Humigar separately to replace any other moisturizer you might have.\u00a0 The small Humigar for 25-30 cigars is priced at $35, the medium that works for 50-75 cigars is $45, and the large for 75-125 cigars is $55.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
