Boveda’s 50-Count Humidor Named Best Humidor at Cigar Journal’s 2026 Cigar Trophy Awards

Cigar industry’s largest consumer-voted awards affirm Boveda’s 50-Count Humidor as the premier choice for protecting cigars.

MINNETONKA, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Boveda, the inventor and patent holder of precision 2-way humidity control, today announced that its 50-Count Humidor has been named Best Humidor at the 2026 Cigar Trophy Awards, presented by Cigar Journal. Decided entirely by public vote among cigar enthusiasts worldwide, the Cigar Trophy Awards are the cigar industry’s largest consumer-voted honor, presented annually by Cigar Journal at Intertabac, the world’s largest tobacco trade show.

The Boveda Humidor is a 50-count humidor with a Macassar Ebony exterior finish, an integrated Boveda holder, and a tight, no-draft seal. The award-winning humidor performs like an acrylic humidor while keeping the craftsmanship of a traditional wood humidor. It is the first and only cigar humidor engineered specifically around Boveda’s patented 2-way humidity control.

“For nearly 30 years, customers have asked us the same question: why is it so difficult to protect the cigars you love? This award reflects the work our team has put into answering that. But tonight belongs to the cigar families who grow, blend, and produce the cigars we all love,” said Sean Knutsen, Co-Founder and CEO of Boveda.

“None of this happens without the customers who have trusted Boveda to protect their cigars for 29 years. We’re honored to be recognized by Cigar Journal and by an industry we’re proud to be part of,” said Tim Swail, Co-Founder and VP of Sales at Boveda.

Cigar Journal has presented the Cigar Trophy Awards since 1998, and they remain the only major honor in the cigar industry decided entirely by consumer vote rather than jury selection. Boveda has previously been recognized by Cigar Journal for its humidity control technology, reinforcing the brand’s standing as the category’s most trusted name in cigar storage.

The Boveda 50-Count Humidor is available at bovedahumidor.com and is sold alongside Boveda’s broader line of 2-way humidity control solutions for wood humidors, travel humidors, and airtight storage cases.
