Stay tuned for the big take down! Rocky Patel got way more than he bargained for while debuting his new cigars, Conviction and Dark Star to Boveda's founders, Sean Knutsen and Tim Swail and company sensei, Drew Emmer. Rocky explains why he uses Boveda to preserve the flavor and character of his cigars.

Just to clarify, Boveda was indeed developed in Minnesota, the land of sky blue water, but here's what the 2-way humidity pack actually contains: Purified water, natural salts and odorless food grade thickener, commonly used in salad dressing.

What is Boveda? Cigar makers like Rocky Patel protect the flavor and character of their hand-rolled cigars with Boveda, that brown 2-way humidity pack that you find in a cigar box. At home, continue to use Boveda in your humidor to keep cigars well-humidified or they can be hard to light, burn to too fast or get moldy. With Boveda in your humidor, you'll enjoy full flavor from every cigar. Boveda has been keeping cigars tasting great for more than 25 years. Age and store premium cigars with Boveda in your humidor.
