The best conditions for cigars vary*.  My favourites (Partegas) like to be
kept a little warmer and at about 70% humidity.  The humidity I can control,
but controlling temperature precisely is a little difficult in my flat,
especially at this time of year.  I really must fix that dodgy thermostat.

Doesn't really matter, cos I only buy $small_num smokes at a time, and
they're fine sitting in my humidor for a week or so provided the temperature
doesn't fluctuate too wildly.
