Alright friends here's your chance to satisfy my curiosity
I've never done a poll so I'm killing two birds with one stone and answering a question in my mind as well.
What's your opinion of the best RH to smoke a stick?

QuoteBrlesq - 5/30/2014 10:02 AM x3. Most of my humidors are between 63%-65%. One is kept around 60% because some cigars seem to burn and age better at that lower humidity.
That's interesting, Bruce. What factors did you find that influence this? Type of wrapper? A certain brand? Fillers? I've always wondered if something like a thick broadleaf would perform and taste better at a different RH than something like a thin shade wrapper.

Quotegitfiddl - 5/30/2014 11:36 AM63.765%, except on Tuesdays when the moon is full and the wind is out of the northeast. Then I prefer them a little closer to 65%.
Quotenwb - 5/30/2014 2:57 PMUmmm, I think we have a winner.....
QuoteLonghorn - 5/30/2014 9:00 PM65%, but only if kitty litter was used. If Heartfelt beads, then it must be at 67%. And if the cigars are in cellos I wait until 68% unless I'm using a V-cutter then 67% is fine.
