Cigar Humidor: Aging Log — A humidity and aging record for the cigars you already own

The useful test is whether it ties three things together: inventory, humidity readings and an aging clock, because a collection is really a set of boxes drifting through all three at once. Cigar Humidor: Aging Log does that — vitola and wrapper per stick, RH and temperature logged per humidor against a target, and a rest-start date that shows fresh, resting or ready on every box. Free on Android, coming to iPhone.

Collectors commonly cite a target relative humidity around 65 to 70%, though the right figure for a given collection can vary with the cigars stored and personal preference. What matters more than hitting one exact number is catching drift: a reading that creeps low, high, or stays out of range across several checks is the sign to act on, which is why Cigar Humidor logs each reading against the target you set for that humidor rather than against a single universal rule.

The usual tell is a trend, not one odd reading: if RH keeps drifting low or high across several checks despite the humidor itself being sealed properly, the humidification device has likely lost capacity. Cigar Humidor grades each humidor's health after three logged readings and gives a plain fix — running dry, too wet, or pack spent — built from your own reading history rather than a guess.

There's no single number — it depends on the cigar and on collector preference, and newly received or recently produced sticks are commonly given a rest period to settle after transport. The practical fix is recording a rest start date per box so the app can show fresh, resting or ready against that specific date, rather than relying on memory of when a box arrived.

Vitola is a cigar's shape and size — its ring gauge and length — distinct from its wrapper or blend. Recording it alongside wrapper and strength is what makes a later tasting note actually useful: a rating attached only to a brand name tells you less than one attached to the exact size and wrapper that earned it, which is how Cigar Humidor's palate card works out which combinations you actually rate highest.

No. It is a record-keeping tool only: it does not sell cigars, does not link anywhere to buy them, and does not suggest when or how much to smoke. The app only tracks the storage conditions you record from your own hygrometer and the notes you choose to write about sticks you already own. An age confirmation appears at first launch.

Yes. The free tier tracks up to 25 sticks in one humidor with unlimited readings, an unlimited journal with ratings and pairings, the aging clock, health grades, cellar-by-age view, weekly recap and CSV export, plus 3 AI drafts a month. Pro adds unlimited sticks and humidors, collection stats, a humidity timeline per humidor, a cost-per-smoke ledger, and a larger AI draft allowance.

Yes. Inventory, readings, journal entries and band photos are stored on your device, and the core log works offline with no account required. AI drafts send only cigar attributes — brand, line, size, wrapper, strength — never your notes, photos or prices. Signing in is optional and only protects a subscription across devices.

On request, the app can draft a tasting note, a pairing suggestion, or an aging summary for a specific stick, grounded in that cigar's own recorded attributes rather than a generic description. The draft is always editable and is never saved automatically — you decide whether to keep, change or discard it before it joins the journal. Free accounts get 3 drafts a month; Pro raises that allowance substantially.
