The Cigador Single-Cigar Humidor: Because Sometimes, Just One Is Enough (Maybe)
Let’s be honest: if you’re the kind of person who takes just one cigar out for an evening, I admire your restraint. You have discipline, self-control, and—perhaps—a very short attention span when it comes to smoking. But if you were to take only one, the Cigador makes sure it travels in class.
Looks Matter, and This One Knows It
First off, this thing is eye-catching. Not in the “flashy guy with a gold-plated cutter” way. It’s the kind of accessory that, when placed on a table, makes people assume you know what you’re doing. Even if you don’t.
Perfect Threads.
The Cigador has solid threads, which means no awkward fumbling, cross-threading, or accidental lid-launching across the room when you try to unscrew it. If you care about precision engineering in your cigar accessories, you’ll be impressed. If you don’t, well… you’ll still appreciate that it doesn’t feel cheap.
The Hygrometer: A Noble Attempt at Control
The built-in hygrometer works, but like all small travel humidors, it’s subject to some mood swings.
You top off a little humidity disk, and—depending on the alignment of the stars and the humidity you start with — you will see some fluctuations. But hey, that’s travel humidor tubes for you. You are not looking for a long-term storage. You are just trying to have something to smoke after dinner.
The Real Question: Why Would You Take Just One Cigar?
Let’s be real: a single-cigar humidor assumes that at some point, you thought, You know what? Just one cigar will be enough tonight.
That’s… adorable.
But for those rare occasions when you’re traveling light—maybe a business dinner, a quick lounge visit, or you’re just trying to limit yourself (I don’t know why I even said that last one)…this is the way to do it in style.
Price
The one shown here is from the ‘Tactical’ series and runs about $89.99 and is available in a ton of different colors. Ok, maybe not a ‘ton’ but there are eight colors…I probably should have just said that but now I’m in pretty deep.
Final Verdict
The Cigador is the Rolls-Royce of single-cigar travel cases: beautifully designed, well-built, and slightly over-the-top in the best way possible. If you’re going to carry just one cigar, might as well treat it like royalty.
