Black Lacquer
Spanish Cedar
The CORLEON combines two advantages rarely found together with such precision in a desktop humidor: a glass top that allows you to admire your collection without opening it, and a digital LCD hygrometer on the front that displays the humidity level in real-time with ±1-2% accuracy. The exterior is made of glossy black lacquer framed by a brown wood trim around the lid — with gold hinges. The interior is entirely made of Spanish cedar. The crystal humidifier and the removable cedar divider are included. Capacity: 50 cigars. Dimensions: 29.5 × 24.7 × 11.2 cm.

🪵 Spanish cedar & digital hygrometer — active preservation and precise control
The interior of the CORLEON is entirely lined with Spanish cedar (Cedrela odorata) — walls, bottom, and divider. Its natural hygroscopic properties passively regulate humidity: it absorbs excess moisture when humidity rises and releases it when the air dries out — a natural balance that complements the crystal humidifier. Its aromatic terpenes gradually enrich the stored cigars, and cedar protects against the tobacco beetle.
The digital LCD hygrometer on the front offers an accuracy of ±1-2% — significantly higher than an analog needle hygrometer (±5%). The reading is taken from the outside without any manipulation or opening. The crystal humidifier ensures progressive and stable diffusion — more consistent than a traditional sponge.

Black lacquer & brown trim
Glossy black lacquered body framed by brown wood trim · gold hinges · sober elegance.
Glass & digital — dual control without ever opening
The CORLEON is built around a conviction: a cigar enthusiast should be able to monitor their collection without disturbing the preservation conditions. The glass top offers visual control — organization, cigar condition, collection rotation. The digital hygrometer on the front offers technical control — precise humidity level within ±1-2% at all times.
These two features operate without any opening. Between two tastings, the CORLEON remains closed — the humidity accumulated in the cedar is fully preserved. The glossy black lacquer framed by its brown wood trim gives it an elegant silhouette — an object that is as much displayed on a desk as it works silently.
Setup — 4 steps
1
Seasoning (24 to 48 h): before the first loading, place a container of distilled water in the closed humidor with the divider in place. The new cedar absorbs and stabilizes moisture — without this step, it would absorb humidity from your cigars as soon as you open it.
2
Loading the crystal humidifier: immerse the crystals in distilled water for a few minutes, drain without squeezing, and place them back in the box. Never use tap water — limescale gradually clogs the crystals.
3
Organization with the divider: position the removable cedar divider to divide the compartment into two zones — different brands, distinct sizes, or separate aromatic profiles. Remove it for long sizes (Churchill, Torpedo).
4
Dual monitoring: check the glass top for organization and cigar condition — and the digital LCD hygrometer on the front for humidity level. Target range: 65–72%. Recharge the crystals as soon as the reading drops below 65%.

Digital vs. analog hygrometer — why the difference matters: a needle hygrometer has an accuracy of ±5% — a reading of 70% can actually mean 65% or 75%. A digital hygrometer offers an accuracy of ±1-2%: what you read corresponds to the actual internal conditions. Within a target range of 65–72%, this precision makes the difference between optimal preservation and a collection that is too dry or too humid without you knowing it.
Mandatory seasoning + divider in place: for the initial seasoning of the CORLEON, leave the cedar divider in place in the closed box with the distilled water container for 24 to 48 hours. Its cedar surface helps to uniformly humidify the volume. Once stabilized, the divider acts as a complementary regulator in addition to its organizational role.

Maintenance of the black lacquered finish: black lacquer immediately shows fingerprints — clean with a soft microfiber cloth, dry or slightly damp. Never use abrasive products. The glass top should be cleaned in the same way. The brown wood trim framing the lid should be cleaned with a dry cloth — avoid oily products in this area as they could stain the adjacent lacquer.

Frequently asked questions
What is the accuracy of the CORLEON's digital hygrometer?
The CORLEON's digital LCD hygrometer offers an accuracy of ±1-2% — significantly higher than an analog needle hygrometer (±5%). In practice: a reading of 68% actually corresponds to a reality between 66% and 70%. It can be read directly on the front panel without opening the humidor or removing anything, allowing for daily monitoring without disturbing the internal preservation conditions. This is the main advantage of digital for precise humidor management.
How does the crystal humidifier work?
The silica gel crystals absorb distilled water and gradually release it into the internal air as humidity decreases — a more regular and stable diffusion than a classic sponge which quickly releases its water then dries out. To refill: immerse the crystals in distilled water for a few minutes, drain without squeezing, and place them back in the humidor. Never use tap water which calcifies the crystals. Refill as soon as the digital hygrometer drops below 65%.
Why season before first use?
New Spanish cedar is naturally dry and very hygroscopic. Without prior seasoning, it would massively absorb humidity from your cigars upon first loading, drying them out in a few days. Seasoning involves placing a container of distilled water in the closed humidor for 24 to 48 hours — with the cedar divider in place to maximize the humidified surface. Once stabilized, the cedar then becomes a natural regulator rather than a competitor.
Does the glass top preserve humidity well?
Yes — the glass is positioned on the top of the box and allows you to admire the collection without opening it, thus preserving the accumulated internal humidity. Combine viewing through the glass with reading the digital hygrometer on the front for complete control without ever interfering with the humidor between tastings. If you notice a regular drop in humidity despite the humidifier being refilled, check the condition of the peripheral seal around the glass.
What is the purpose of the removable cedar divider?
The removable cedar divider divides the compartment into two distinct zones — ideal for separating brands with very different aromatic profiles or sizes (Robusto on one side, Churchill on the other). In addition to its organizational role, it actively participates in hygroscopic regulation: its cedar surface absorbs excess humidity and releases it according to conditions. Remove it to store very long cigars or Gordo sizes that require more width.
How do I maintain the CORLEON's black lacquer finish?
The glossy black lacquer finish immediately shows fingerprints. Clean with a soft microfiber cloth — dry to remove smudges, slightly damp for a more thorough cleaning. Never use abrasive products or paper towels. The brown wood trim framing the lid should only be cleaned with a dry cloth. The glass pane can be cleaned with the same microfiber cloth. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
Is the CORLEON a good gift for a cigar enthusiast?
The CORLEON is among the most well-balanced cigar gift ideas: glossy black lacquer with brown wood trim, glass top, digital hygrometer ±1-2%, Spanish cedar, crystal humidifier, and removable divider included — 50 cigars. The double visual (glass) and technical (digital) control makes it a humidor particularly appreciated by connoisseurs. Paired with a torch lighter and a cigar cutter, it makes a complete and memorable cigar gift set.
