I happen to have come into possession of a cigar. It might be a few days until I can smoke it. In the past I smoked cigars immediately after buying them. How long can I leave it sit around before smoking it? Should I put it in the fridge or anything?

It's all about the humidity. If it's only going to be for a few days, put it in a ziplock at room temp. As long as it was properly stored before you got it, all should be good. Absolutely don't leave it out, especially in a low humidity environment.

Like Ben said put it in a zip loc bag. You can put that zip loc into a larger bag with a damp paper towel in it. Did it come in a cellophane wrapper? Or a glass or metal tube? Those will keep it pretty fresh.

Note: damp, not wet! A cigar that dries out is bad. One that molds is terrible.

Doesn't Monica Lewinsky have a cigar care and use blog?
If she doesn't, she should.

Probably moist.

Moist enough to drip, I guess.
