How long does Boveda last for cigars and tobacco?
Depending on your humidor and its surrounding environment, you can expect Boveda to last 2 to 4 months in a wooden humidor, 6 to 9 months in an airtight humidor and one year in a Boveda Humidor Bag.
In its original packaging, Boveda has a two-year shelf life.
To avoid the risk of a lapse in your 2-way humidity control, we recommend replacing any Boveda actively in use every 3 months (90 days).
