Yea the options for boveda are 65 and 69 then 72. The 65 is supposedly for smaller ring gauge cigars or Europeans something, the 68 says is the most common for cigars. The 65 is supposedly easier for lighting your cigars. Im not sure which one im gonna do.

Never heard the 65 and small rg before. It is recommended that Cuban cigars be kept around 65% and boy are they making some jawbreakers lately. 68 very well may be the most common, I wouldn't doubt it. Don Pepin Garcia recommends that his cigars be kept at 65% or under too because he uses alot of corojo and criollo and those baccy's soak up water like a sponge. I keep all my cigars in the 60-63% range no matter the rg or where they came from and I havn't had any complaints.

This is what makes the hobby fun. Experimentation to find your perfect levels! Everything about this hobby is subjective and there are more opinions than cigars.
