The Wyatt Ebony High Gloss Cigar Humidor, 150 Cigar Capacity
The Wyatt is a serious ebony high gloss cigar humidor built for a serious collection. It is a mirror finished, arc lidded box with a Spanish cedar interior and a hidden magnetic lid. It is the humidor you give the cigar lover who has outgrown the cheap starter box. It is the piece that ends up on the desk, not in the closet.
Start with the way it looks, because it is unapologetic. The lid is arc shaped rather than flat, a domed silhouette that most humidors do not have. The whole exterior is finished in deep ebony lacquer polished to a mirror gloss. The striped grain of the wood runs underneath. The hardware is polished silver throughout. It reads as furniture, not as storage. It looks expensive from across the room, which is exactly what you want a gift like this to do.
Now open it, because that is where it gets clever. The inside of the lid carries an invisible steel lining. The humidifier, the hygrometer, and the cigar scissors all mount magnetically to the underside of the lid. Nothing is glued or screwed down. Nothing rattles loose in the bottom of the box taking up cigar space. Lift the lid and the whole kit is right there, floating above the cigars. It is the single smartest thing about this humidor, and it is the reason it feels engineered rather than assembled.
What you get:
- A Spanish cedar lined interior with three adjustable dividers to organize the collection.
- A polished silver refillable humidifier and a silver framed hygrometer, both magnetically mounted in the lid.
- Silver cigar scissors, also mounted in the lid.
- An ebony high gloss lacquer exterior with an arc lid and polished silver pull handle.
- Generous exterior dimensions of roughly 16.75 inches wide by 10.75 deep by 6.75 high.
The Spanish cedar is not decoration. Cedar is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs and releases moisture. That makes it act as a buffer. It keeps the humidity inside the box steady rather than swinging every time the lid opens. It also repels tobacco beetles and lends a soft aroma that flatters aging cigars. Every serious humidor is lined with it, and this one is lined properly.
An honest word about capacity, because we would rather tell you now than have you find out later. It is rated at 150 cigars. It will genuinely hold 150 if they are slim coronas packed tightly with the dividers removed. In the real world, with the fat 50 to 60 ring gauge cigars most people smoke today, expect fewer. Somewhere around 70 to 100 is typical. That is still a substantial collection and a large box. We would rather you buy it knowing that.
Season it before the first cigar goes in. Wipe the interior with a dry cloth, never soap and never tap water. Set a small dish of distilled water inside, close it, and leave it a day so the cedar can drink. Then charge the humidifier with distilled water and let it stop dripping. Mount it in the lid and hold the box around 70 percent humidity. Do that once and it will look after cigars for years.
It is a natural for a milestone birthday, a retirement, or a groomsman who actually smokes. It also works as the executive gift that needs some weight to it. Add cigars at checkout to fill it, and a personalized gift note can be included.
