Thanks!
And that is something I've deliberated over before... The first load of New World cigars I picked up, I took the cellophane off (purely for aesthetic reasons). Then after some research, came to the conclusion that no one can really decide whether it's best to or not. I thought about it again when I was just filling this one up, but tbh I dont think theres much of a draw back with leaving them on. Primarily they protect them from fumbling/knocks and drops, and help them resist any fluctuations in humidity.
In terms of what's best for aging/long term storage... Not a clue. Although thinking about it now, I may take some of them off, again, just for aesthetics. But it is nice to just be able to grab them and not worry too much about the wrappers like I do with the Cubans

Nice set-up and collection.
One query (which I don't know the answer to) is whether or not it's best practice to keep the sticks in the cellophane wrappers. I'm sure The Knowledgeable Ones will opine later.

Definitely Serious Now...
After much deliberation over orientation, practicality, aesthetics and boveda placement... Finally got everything from my jars, 30 count humi and 25 box of RyJ No.2's into their new home. Went with a straight split down the middle between Cubans and New World.
Humidity still a little high, so may still have to leave it open a bit to let it drop (a little impatient after having the 84% Boveda in there). Hoping it will equalise somewhere below 69%.
Those 320g Boveda are a little bigger than I was expecting too [emoji2357]
If anyone can see any obvious errors (other than the fact my new world side is looking a bit light) then feel free to point it out [emoji106]. I've got 10 No.2's in their tubes sitting on the bottom, then tried to stack the other 15 'cabinet' style towards the front, then laid the rest of my Cubans I'm hoping to resist touching for a short while on top.
Am I right in thinking that generally the humidity rises? So I should expect the lower section to have slightly lower RH?
