Quality Importers Trading Company has announced its Humidor Supreme Desktop Humidors will now include Xikar Boveda 84% Seasoning Packs. These packs can be used to season a new Humidor Supreme Desktop Humidor.

When a humidor is seasoned, it raises the moisture level of the wood to bring it into equilibrium with the cigars. It works two ways to prevent moisture from evaporating from cigars. Specific Humidor Supreme models like the Aria, Aria Glass-top, Dane, and Oro are crafted with a built-in decorative panel. This panel will hold any Boveda 60g two-way humidity pack, whether it is the 84% one for seasoning or a 65% to 75% pack for maintaining humidity levels.

This move expands the relationship between Quality Importers and Boveda. Quality Importers resells Boveda packs under Xikar/Boveda branding.

“The ultimate goal of a humidor is to provide peace of mind; knowing you are storing your collection in a secure and stable environment, be it short or long term. Collaborating with Boveda the global leader in 2-way humidity control and including their Xikar humidification Seasoning Packets at no additional expense, we’ve made it simple and convenient for anyone to set up their desktop humidors and enjoy their cigars. At QI, we continue to focus on consumer buying habits, the retailer’s bottom line, and finding better ways to do business. Doing business with Boveda was a natural step in the progression of offering best-in-class products, innovation, and service. Furthermore, our desktop humidor designs maximize cigar storage space, making it easy for everyone to enjoy their collection with minimal upkeep with the inclusion of Boveda Seasoning Packets,” said Mike Giordano, CEO of Quality Importers, in a press release.

“This is a natural progression for Boveda in our collaborative relationship with Quality Importers,” said Tim Swail, Executive Vice President of Sales for Boveda. “It’s only fitting that the Boveda 2-way humidity 84% Seasoning Packets technology would become a standard inclusion in QI’s industry leading Humidor Supreme Desktop Humidors. The simplicity of storing and aging cigars to perfection in a humidor is paramount to a cigar lover’s smoking experience and enjoyment. In the end, this is the best collaboration for the consumer and we are excited to see how this groundbreaking initiative raises the bar for cigar storage for everyone moving forward.”
